Quoting robyn :

they have the same rights but often their roles are still viewed differently in society..maybe thats why they are not drafted into complusory service..



yes i see what you mean, for equality in women in women worldwide, we should get the good stuff (e.g. voting) and the bad stuff (e.g. national service) or we are not truly equal, if you know what i mean.

I understood that only women over 30 could vote in Britain before 1928 and Turkey gave women the vote in 1926

Thanks Joey. However you were right about the UK, I just didn't want to confuse things. They were allowed to vote if they were over 30 from 1918, then could vote if they were over 21 from 1928
