Women voting? Your children will die.

Found this when looking up something inspired by the earlier women's suffrage ad.




Switzerland, 1920 - 51 years before women received the vote on a national level, 70 before they received it in the last canton.


Top: "The mother is pursuing politics!"
Bottom: "Women's franchise and suffrage | NO"

Milk... and cookies. )
