Women have won civil rights/equality battles much more recently - including the right to play sports as recently as the 70s. And your comment on dates doesn't reverse my point. My point stands - domestic demonstrations absolutely have a lot to do with protecting actual freedoms in the US. 

The problem might lay with you, and the freedoms you consider disposable and a contempt for women's rights. People were protesting not because their side lost, but because of the freedoms that might get lost due to that election. They had every right to be concerned about losing their rights under a right wing govt with p$$y grabbing president. 

I'm sorry if you're unable to understand that concept.
