The guys are thinking 1805, but it is 2014 and they have not enough respect for women to update their attitudes.

This ought to scare the bejesus out of most any woman in that state regardless of their beliefs, and be a good motivator for them to start fighting for the equality and recognition they deserve. It won't, of course, but perhaps there will be enough.
