    Leave it to Switzerland to be reactionary as fuck, yet fly under the radar as the “coolest” European country.

    IIRC women couldn’t open bank accounts without their husband’s permission until the eighties. Women’s right to vote came so late apparently because it was always left to a “Volksabstimmung” (plebiscite) and since only men could vote in those they didn’t see the benefit in allowing women.
