How Could The Women's Suffrage Been Avoided

Whether we like it or not, conflict is a part of everyday lives. It can happen to anyone, from your friends to your family.

Over a hundred years ago, one event created chaos among gender roles and here are some of the initial factors of how rights for women started as a predicament which later began to evolve into a much larger problem that involved many people around the nations. Over the course of history, many issues had change the world to what it has become today. Many problems led to social, economic, and other changes. One small event is able to cause more obstacles, which eventually leads to larger complications. Even though society had tried to resolve these issues, they still encountered many hardships that were disruptive to their own perspectives as also for other people within the community. Thus, this was an important issue because it had changed

With the advancement of suffrage to equal pay, over the last century, women’s rights have progressed immensely. Through historic marches and demonstrations across the United States, women protested for their equal place in politics and social progress. Despite the fear-mongering components used in achieving these rights, women’s rights are still thoroughly debated within society today. Over the last century, incredible and unreachable goals have been fulfilled for women, such as the right to vote and a sense of equal state in the “Free World,” and can only improve in the years to come.

We have heard countless times that women’s rights are important, that women are being underpaid and overworked. But where did it start?

The Woman’s Suffrage Movement gave women the right to vote, without the Woman’s Suffrage Movement women today would not be able to vote or have a role in politics. Before the 20th century, women were nothing more than child bearers and housewives. The mind of a women was considered delicate and inferior. Women were opposed and ignored when they were bold enough to voice their opinions.

Women’s Suffrage was a huge movement in the 1800’s and the beginning of the 1900’s. Women fought long and hard to earn the right to vote and the right to be considered equal along with men. “The day may be approaching when the whole world will recognize woman as the equal of man” (Susan B. Anthony). They also earned the right to own property. Many men argued against women’s rights. Women struggled for 50 years against the hate and the repressment by men.

Protests are still an essential part of America’s democracy today. Though times have changed a lot America still has many social issues. Most of these issues have to do with minorities. People are starting to realize how unfairly they are being treated and they want to do something about it. One of the more recent large protests was the women’s march that was held the day before Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony. These women followed in the footsteps of the women in 1913 who were marching for their right to vote, civil rights, and economic equality. The large march widley known as the women’s march that was held January 21, 2017 was not only to bring awareness to issues such as gender inequality but it called for protection for immigrants,

The road leading up to the passing of the 19th amendment in August of 1920 was anything but easy, a fight for equal rights that lasted 72 years. Women’s rights conventions were held on a continual basis from 1850 until the start of the civil war. Many women were involved in the “Women’s Rights Movement” but a few who played a higher role was, Esther Morris,Abigail Scott Duniway, Ida B. Wells-Barnett and Mary Church Terrell, Anna Howard Shaw and Carrie Chapman Catt.

The women’s suffrage movement all started with the Seneca Falls Convention. During the time period of 1848-1920s women were trying to gain their rights. Women weren’t treated equal to men. All the men were “created equal” while women were overlooked. People viewed women as citizens but only under certain aspects (they were not allowed to vote). They were denied of certain rights. They were even looked at as inferior.

Next to the fight against slavery, women's suffrage was the biggest movement for rights, equality, and freedom, beginning in the 19th century. This movement not only has helped shape our country into what it is today but has also liberated other countries the same rights abroad. The idea of a woman being equal to men during the 19th century was an entirely foreign concept that was originally not taken well. It took several decades for women to pull through in their efforts to liberate females the equal opportunities of males. Because of these women, the ladies of today are privileged to enjoy the freedoms that have been passed down from generations.

Women’s Suffrage is a subject that could easily be considered a black mark on the history of the United States. The entire history of the right for women to vote takes many twists and turns but eventually turned out alright. This paper will take a look at some of these twists and turns along with some of the major figures involved in the suffrage movement.

What if the government put laws in place to prevent people that were too short or fat to vote in public political elections? It may seem like an unlikely event that would occur today, but a few decades ago the government went through great length to prevent specific groups from having the right and ability to vote. One group in particular that were deprive voting rights in the past was women. The idea that women wanted to be not above a man, but equal was unfathomable to most men and women. In the past, women were seen as unintelligent servants to their husbands and children. They were deprived many rights especially the right to vote in public state or national elections. This did not change until the few strong women stood up and endured hardships for the many to bring about the 19th amendment assuring equality among the sexes for future generations.

The first movement I will speak of is the Women’s Movement being of both a political movement and social. Per text, the women’s rights movement “flourished in the 1970’s and “with three influential wings- radical, liberal, and “Third World’ the women’s movement inspired both grassroots activism and legislative action across the nation” (Henretta et al, 897). This movement began achieving power which viewed success when 34 of the required 38 states which validated the Equal Rights Amendment.

Although often iconized as a time of industrial and political revolution the 20th Century provided an equally important platform for social revolution. During this era countless social movements emerged, notably so the women’s rights and feminist movements. Tremendous gains were made for women throughout the century’s span, from suffrage, to equal pay, and the availability of contraceptives. One of the most complex feminist movements of the 20th century followed the period’s most tumultuous event: World War II. While under occupation by the United States the Japanese feminist movement flourished and the lives of Japanese women changed dramatically. The feminism of this period, from the end of the war to the end of occupation, has been studied by numerous historians and is mentioned in most literature concerning occupation. The leading scholars of occupation feminism have approached and presented the topic in three distinctly different ways: several focus on cultural changes, others emphasize the movement’s deep historical roots, and some criticize the period as flawed feminism.
