Interesting question.... but I don't think there is an answer.
I believe that in most countries everyone votes in the order they show up. I'm unaware of anyplace where the women vote first. However, quite often a gentleman might let a lady vote in front of him, but if he let all of the women go before he did, he'd probably be late for work.

In 1893 New Zealand became the first country to grant women the right to vote in national elections.

Beg to clarify the information of another posting, but women did not receive the right to vote in the US until 1920. The correct answer is New Zealand in 1893.

If you want the nation that gave all women the right to vote then it is New Zealand, however if you want who in general then it would be the state of Wyoming in 1872. Which Wyoming is part of the U.S.
