My Top Stories Of The Century

Women win the right to vote. 1920.

Women winning the right to vote was the 19h ammendment of the constitution. The ammendment was passed in 1919, but wasn't ratified until 3/4 of the states agreed to it in August of 1920. This was a huge victory after years and years of fighting for womens suffrage.

If doctors and scientests still hadn't identified it, who knows how many people would be unknwingly suffering from it. Identifiying the deficiency was also good for the social aspect of the human race because people realized it wasn't a homosexual disease.
