femme fatales

I recently came across an article on vintage Valentine postcards that featured nasty anti suffrage beliefs of those times.

Being anti suffrage, it meant mostly nasty remarks against females. Declared mostly from the male perspective, of course.

Glorified goddess or deified demon? Angel or temptress? Wife or whore? How the world defines its women throughout the ages has not changed radically enough.
