I'm gonna give you some facts that may or may not shock you:
Women control 56% of the vote. Women are a little over 52% of the adult population and the rest of the difference is due to disenfranchised felons.
From 1776 to 1920, the Federal government ran on ~2% of GDP sans wartime. We're pushing 40% of GDP now.
Every State that allowed women's suffrage prior to the 19th immediately started growing at near exponential levels. The States which didn't ratify the 19th but were beholden to it also increased at the State level once it was enacted. In short, the USA was a near-perfect natural experiment to isolate the cause of government expansion to be women's suffrage.
One of the major reasons government has increased significantly is because men pay 75% of taxes while women receive 80% of government welfare.
Currently, the USA government transfers $2T/yr from men to women.
I don't have the exact numbers for other countries, but the UK, France, and even Switzerland (which allowed women's suffrage in the 1970s) have all followed similar trends in the increase of government (intrusion and taxes) after women's suffrage.
That's the cost of women's suffrage. What does it grant which offsets the cost?

Those are hate facts
