It was in 1920 that, after a century of marching, women finally gained the right to vote in the United States. Following this, many other countries around the world agreed to provide this right to women. This marked a significant change in history, however, there is still much to be done. We dug deep into Reddit to learn what opinions the community has regarding the differences in freedom between men and women, and these are some of their responses.
1. “Eating large amounts of food at a restaurant”

3. “Going topless”
4. “Aging”
5. “Weightlifting”
6. “Being overweight”
7. “Late-night parties”

9. “Arguing. I’ve seen times where the man is flying off the handle, but a not even raised voice retort from a woman, and she’s called emotional.”
10. “Deciding not to have children”
11. “Shaving their head”
12. “Dating a younger partner”
Double standards can be really annoying sometimes. But there are some differences between men and women that even science agrees with.
Baby rescued from a fire finds a loving home seven years later, after suffering severe burns from the apartment blaze
When a fire swept through the apartment where Deyvion slept as a baby in his bassinet, he was miraculously rescued by firefighters. Although he survived, the blaze left him with severe burns on his face.
This resilient little boy from Missouri embarked on a difficult recovery journey at a specialized burns unit, fighting to regain his health against the odds. Remarkably, he faced this challenge without the support of a family by his side.
At the age of five, everything changed for Deyvion when he became the foster child of Beth Plunkett, a single mother of two. “He was such a beautiful little boy, and I fell in love with him immediately”, Beth recalled, as reported by WGN9 News. “I often hear people say: ‘Oh, he’s so lucky to have you’, but honestly, I feel just as lucky to have him”, she added.
After spending 2,545 days without a family, Deyvion was finally adopted by Beth. “My biggest wish for him is to be happy and to always feel loved. I want him to set goals and achieve great things, and I have no doubt he will. God has an amazing plan for him”, she said.
In addition to his new mom and siblings, Deyvion has also captured the hearts of the firefighters who saved him. Deputy Chief Eric Smith of the South Metro Fire Department in Raymore and his team still remember the night they rescued this remarkable boy.
On the day of Deyvion’s adoption, Smith and his crew presented him with a special jacket and hat made just for him. They also treated Deyvion and Beth to a ride in their fire truck to the courthouse, where his adoption was finalized.
As they celebrated, Smith gave Deyvion a high five and expressed his pride in the young boy, stating: “He’s incredibly special. While we may not always understand why things happen, we certainly do now”.
Deyvion is surrounded by love, having shown immense courage throughout his journey. This brave and endearing boy truly deserves every bit of happiness. His story is one we all need to hear, a testament to love and compassion. Let’s spread the word about this inspiring little boy and shower him with even more love!
