face change on US currency

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by monsterdaddy, Aug 6, 2015.

  1. So this is my first thread I have written.


    For hundreds of years in the United States we have always had a historical figure on our change and bills in our currency. Some of the figures featured are George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Ben Franklin, etc. now the women in the United States are starting to think it's sexist that there is only a male figure on our currency. They have now started to come together to fight for at least one women to be on our currency. They have chosen many but some of the ones they want aren't even dead. And according to the national law, the only person who has the authority to change the face on any one of our bills is the Treasurer of the United States and that the figure has to be deceased and HAS to have played a major and significant part in our history.


    I wrote this to see what you guys think about this and I'm not against this just not as happy about it.


    -RULES-
    1. Be polite
    2. No sexist comments
    3. Respect others opinions
     
  2. When the women do something as president I'll consider it.
     


  3. Have you ever seen Pluto Nash?..

    The Hillaries!!!
     
  4. Why not? I like Harriet Tubman.
     
  5. I would actually accept that. Jut not real keen on this whole idea
     
  6. Again, why not?
     
  7. It just doesn't feel right to me.
     
  8. Once a woman does something great as a president I'll accept the idea. Was a woman part of the founding fathers? Was a woman ever a great top 5 president? No. Therefore they shouldn't have someone on a bill.
     
  9. I know you're trolling.. But women haven't been presidents due to institutionalized sexism. Not lack of ability. Women have done great things. Franklin and Hamilton weren't presidents. Jackson is not a Top 5.
     
  10. I don't really care I say go ahead but with historical figures who actually did something there is plenty of female historical figures
     
  11. It's best I just stay quiet.
     
  12. Here's my first crack at the women that should be on the U.S. Bills..

    Pocahontas

    Sacajawea

    Molly Pitcher

    Lucretia Mott

    Harriet Beecher Stowe

    Susan B. Anthony

    Eleanor Roosevelt

    Oprah!
     
  13. Ok ok.. NOT the Disney Pocahontas m'kay
     
  14. @Ashes

    Harriet Tubman!!

    But nice 
     
  15. Michelle Obama? Let's see if this gets a good reaction
     

  16. Michelle Obama is not even dead. The female has to be dead and played a significant role in our history. And don't even get me started on obama
