Why did in the past only have the men the right to vote?
My thesis: At a time when a state did not exist the only time people needed to vote, was then an aggressor brought war over the tribe. Hence it was the mens duty to fight, so they voted who would lead them. Women did not fight, so why should they vote on the fighters matter?
And this is backed up by history from the Revolution on. There have always been women on the field, caring for the men who are wounded (Florence Nightingale and others) Molly Pitchers, keeping water handy where needed, or actually fighting (Deborah Sampson and others).
