Throughout centuries of human existence, women have been deemed as inferior to men in multiple different cultures and religions. Men have developed a norm to be the individual who carries out duties to help maintain a stable life for himself and the family in which he is providing for. Because of this fundamentalist approach towards how society should be, women’s rights have been suppressed throughout political, social, and cultural actions. The Islamic religion in particular, is fond of abusing the rights of women and empowering the rights of men in such a way that it has created a permanent existence of conflict within countries who follow Islam. In fact, in the Quran it states that women must have lesser authority than men, therefore their

During the 1800’s and 1900’s women fought strongly with intelligence to gain their rights, freedom and high political positions. Women who supported traditional gender roles argued that politics were unacceptable for women and some even argued that voting might cause some women to grow beards.
1848 is thought to be the year the women's rights movement finally kicked off due to a conference held in New york. Before this women had to face many injustices these including the inability to vote, the right to take money from the bank and the right to run for public office these were only some of the hardships women had to face during this era in time. They weren't seen as able bodied human beings and were thought to be inferior to men hence is the reason women couldn't do anything on there own without a man. The years 1880 through 1890 was the turning point for the women's suffrage movement There was a surge of volunteerism among women. They started women's clubs, and professional societies. They also participated in local civic and charity
A number of women in the United States and Europe became frustrated with apparent prejudices against women in the 1830s. The women came together by focusing on a specific goals to help their quality of living. It made it hard for women to establish family and marriage laws because women couldn’t divorce and be included in property laws, which men had complete control over women. Rights/laws for women did not make any progress until the late 1800s and early 1900s. Divorce and property rights were at the surface of the women movement. The first right to be granted to women was nursing. Some middle and upper class women were being hears, as they began to gain access to higher education and some occupations mainly filled by men.

he most significant reason against this policy includes the violation of female rights in behalf of the government deciding the number of infants a family have to have and the increment of crime against women. Since, 1979 the law has prevented around 250 million births since ultrasound tests and abortions became easier to access (Doc E). Also, since ultrasound tests are more accessible this policy created sex discrimination and the number of abortions increased since they could find out earlier if they were expecting a male or female (Doc E). It is imperative to mention that since there's fewer woman, woman became more vulnerable to suffer a crime against them and it represents the power the government is capable of using.

In the Middle East there are many restrictions against women. However there are people who are fighting to support women or others who just do care about the women well beings. We might not see that there are many injustices committed every day and every time, because we just do not hear about it or we do not take the time to realize what is really surrounding us. People had various reactions against the government. For example we saw many who had solidarity for women, and others who decided to only complain about why women should be treated as second class. I believe that we actually need to take the time to learn about what is really happening in the world. Personally, I say this because I also had no idea what was injustices
Over the centuries the treatment of women has varied from country to country. Some countries considered females to be their equals, while others completely disagreed with this idea and believe that they should be treated as man's servants. In modern society almost every country in the world has complete equality between males and females. The treatment of women in Ancient Societies differentiated from having very equal rights, partially equal rights, and barely any equal rights at all.

Everyone has justice, but those who have more money, have more justice. Since the early 1900s, there has been an intense push to punish as a way to address crime. From 1990-2005, a new prison was created every ten days in the United States. As our country continues to pushes for the construction of new prisons, not just to house criminals, but for means of profiting and stimulating the employment rate, justice is lost along the way. The Equal Justice Initiative group continuously tries to counteract this problem by fighting for the freedom of those falsely accused or cruelly punished. The case that essentially started Equal Justice Initiative was Walter McMillian. He was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of a young white woman in Monroe, Alabama. He was held on Death Row prior to actually being
The first public demand for the Constitutional Amendment of women’s rights began before the Civil War, however, the Amendment for it has still not been ratified in the United States Constitution. The introduction for the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) began in 1848 with the Woman’s Rights Convention in Seneca Falls. Over three hundred women and men met and eventually agreed that the resolution for women’s rights should be supported. Many supporters were abolitionists working against slavery supported that equality should be supported for both ethnicity and gender. However, as tensions increased before the Civil War, the rest of the country was not ready to take the issue seriously. After the Civil war, the 14th Amendment, which defined United States citizenship, and the 15th Amendment, which addresses the right to vote based on race, Susan B. Anthony and other women declared that the denial of a woman’s right to vote was unacceptable. In 1872, Anthony attempted to go to the polls and vote due to her right to citizenship under the 14th Amendment. She was arrested and eventually convicted because the courts believed that although she was a citizen, not all citizens had the right to vote. Until Susan B. Anthony’s death, she campaigned for the right to vote. And finally in 1920, the 19th Amendment was passed, stating that "The right of citizens of the
