If everyone thought like you, "never questioning the why of a law" then yes women still would not be able to vote. Get it now? And yes that is an Analogy.

Here, let me help you.

Analogy: Logic . a form of reasoning in which one thing is inferred to be similar to another thing in a certain respect, on the basis of the known similarity between the things in other respects.


you didn't infer. you stated that women wouldn't be voting now if everyone thought like me. Not an analogy but a statement based on your opinion.

An analogy would be something like "being in favor of killing deer over corn is like being in favor of legalizing drugs". A statement based on one's opinion would be something like "people that support hunting over a corn pile are the same people that support legalizing illegal drugs.
