The Right To Vote
At the turn of the century, New Zealand elected its first ever government. Richard John Seddon served as the leader of the Liberal Party from 1893 - 1906. Prior to 1893, only men were legally allowed to vote. This all changed in the late 1800s when a women named Kate Sheppard. New Zealand was the first country to let women vote. For this task we have to write what we think about the fact that women are not allowed to vote in Saudi Arabia until 2015. I don't think that is very fair. Women are just as important as men, men may have a small physical advantage but women are quite intelligent. Over all women are great at making those sorts of decisions.

Hey there Tia, I like that you have shared your opinion on the situation in Saudi Arabia concerning women and their ability to vote. It's good to read that you have provided some fantastic reasons to back your opinion up too.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad women in Saudi Arabia are finally able to vote but 2015 is far too late. Their law should have change decades ago!
Keep up the great blogging,
