Living in a democracy era, we have the right to vote, which is a tremendous privilege and right. However, the Election Day is a holiday for voter can vote, but some people just enjoyed the day without voting. I think this is a pretty bad problem when I’m facing to these days. So I personally I wondered what if would be like to take a holiday on voting day and get a proved from voting booth like doctor’s note for the student. Then there would be some people would dispute the freedom of right not to vote. But if anyone who does not care about politics that on your living world, at least people should know what kind of person or people running the campaign on their land. On my homeland, Korea and Korea’s now we have to call her a former president of the Republic of Korea she got impeached and engaged the biggest scandal. That’s why I looked up this movie again for myself. Recently, the first female president of the Republic Of Korea, she was impeached. It is very a big happening to our land and most of Koreans be in a chaotic state which included me. Off the record, I’m already in a chaotic state since after 2016 America’s Election Day. It was too embarrassing, and I cannot explain it one by one, but this movie has reached more and more this time. Also, I chose this film because I’m a feminist. Since the movie was the based on the women’s suffrage movement, some people prejudiced the film before the movie released. Unlikely men have been in power since they were born. This movie has a woman’s POV, so it brought up a lot of empathy for females. It was not a film that solely dealt with the ladies’ suffrage. The main character, she is a laundry worker belonging to the British lower class in society, as a wife who works harder than man but getting less paycheck and taking care her sick son. Other suffragette members were crushing windows and get a loud to get attention on their movement, but she doesn’t even care at the beginning because, for her, family and livelihood were more important than women’s suffrage.
But she is also a woman and mother, so she turned into a member of the suffragette. The reasons why she became a member of a suffragette were, women cannot have custody of her children, they are mere possession of their husbands, and they have no choice and to keep their mouth shut even though their daughter were sexually abused by the laundry superintendent because they have to save their jobs. Another character wanted to be a doctor, but she ended up as a pharmacist. However, she cannot open up with her name because she is a female. So she used her husband’s name, and her husband is not even a pharmacist.
We should thanks to Suffragette movement and members because of this movement, we women have the right to vote, and I am feeling grateful to those came up to this movement. I hope many people in Korea, America or the other countries that stood up the corrupt leader of their country should see this movie or why the vote is important and think about why we should vote. If you don’t agree with me, just grab a newspaper or open the news app on your phone and you will see why is so important to voting because voting is your future.


I absolutely agree with you voting is our future is our responsibility and duty. We are the once in power to choose a leader to govern over a nation. We as human beings since the beginning of times give up a little freedom for someone to lead us, to give us laws to keep us in balance to restrain from chaos. We are the one who are responsible for our future and for the leader we chosen to lead us there. For many years women were saw as a baby machine that stays at home and nurtures everybody around her. If you think about it’s been one hundred year since the woman gain the right to vote. This woman of the voting rights movement went to jail, were harassed on the street and they still fought. All this women are true heroes of all ages for the entire women out there. Until today in some parts of the world woman are still view as property with the purpose if procreation, nurture husband and kids. Some cultures and religions want to keep women as the ownership of man. They buy this woman from the families and treat them as ownership. They want to maintain the biblical laws when it comes to women. Even today women have to compete with men to show them that there is no jobs we are not able to do a job is simple job. The rate of payment was low for woman back then but in some countries they keep doing it women get pay less than a men for the same job. It is to say that in some nations the men still rule the society.
I also absolutely agree with Eunji, voting is our future is our responsibility and duty. Like women African Americans had to fight for our right to vote .which is why I totally understand why you feel so strongly about voting, not all countries are like united states of America voting gives us a voice an opportunity to make a difference. Taking a look back only times African Americans where even counted to help the STATE not really benefiting African Americans was the Three Fifths Compromise. Which the population of slaves would be counted as three-fifths in total when apportioning Representatives, as well as Presidential electors and taxes. African Americans weren’t really allow to vote until the 60’s.i also agree with Genesis For many years women were saw as a baby machine that stays at home and nurtures everybody around her. Like African Americans, women also went to jail and also harassed for standing up and fighting for what they believed in. also agree with genesis that there no secret that today women have to compete with men to show them that there is no jobs we are not able to do a job is simple job. The rate of payment was low for woman back then but in some countries they keep doing it women get pay less than a men for the same job. It is to say that in some nations the men still rule the society. Even though in corporate world I feel like he Caucasian man earns more money and has slightly easier ladder to climb when it comes to maximum income.
