Women 's Rights Of Women

Women have had many important contributions to this life so it was only fair that they gained equal rights as men. Even today women still struggle to get the recognition they deserve and full equality to males. The nineteenth century

What started with a small convention for 200 women would lead to an effort that changed history forever. In the 1840’s, the women’s suffrage movement began with a convention in Seneca Falls, New York. For almost 100 years after the event that “launched” the movement, supporters of women’s suffrage worked hard to diffuse ideas, educate, and fight for their right to vote. Under the leadership of many strong, influential women, the movement to advocate for women’s suffrage set forth. From the time the United States gained its independence, the ideals of democracy and voting have been core values. Before the nineteenth amendment was ratified, granting women the right to vote, only half of the population was being represented. Women were expected

Women were not given the equal rights in gaining social economic and political equality as a man. Although, women worked just as hard as any man would, they were

One of the most significant milestones in the history of women's rights, undoubtedly, was the concession of women's right to vote. Now, prior to this, women were not considered to have any legal rights/autonomy- back then, people believed their only purpose to be to “fulfill the noble and benign offices of wife and mother.” As a direct result of that, they were also paid little to no consideration when it came to making and passing laws. Thus, this landmark decision to grant women the right to vote heralded a new era for them, an era of newfound freedom and representation in government. The fight for women's voting rights began in the latter half of the 19th century, when women's rights activists saw that they could use the 14th and 15th Amendments to make a case for suffrage.

In the 1920s women received the right to vote, up until then their struggle had seemed like a pointless one, they began to participate in many women’s right movements as well as activist movements to achieve their goal. Not only did their rights change during this era but so

Women, like black slaves, were treated unequally from the male before the nineteenth century. The role of the women played the part of their description, physically and emotionally weak, which during this time period all women did was took care of their household and husband, and followed their orders. Women were classified as the “weaker sex” or below the standards of men in the early part of the century. Soon after the decades unfolded, women gradually surfaced to breathe the air of freedom and self determination, when they were given specific freedoms such as the opportunity for an education, their voting rights, ownership of property, and being employed.

As the years progressed from the 1700s into the 1800s, women started to see that they were not treated as equal as men even though they could do anything men could. During the late 1800s was when women first started to fight for more rights and equality. They started forming more and more women groups, and even went on labor strikes to protest the diversity. Although it seemed that as hard as they tried to gain this equality, the harder it was for them to obtain it. They were treated horribly and unequally to men. While African American men received the power to vote in 1870, women still did not have a chance at that right. Even though many people disagree that women were treated fairly, the studies show that they were discriminated against. The treatment of women in the late 1800s was discriminatory because they

Women’s rights to vote women couldn’t vote back in the late 1800’s. Women had to stay home and take care of the children, cook and clean the house and when their husbands get home take care of them too. Although women had to do all those things they were not paid equal for the things they did. Women were told it is not job to vote that it is a man’s job to do the voting and women to take care of everything else. Gaining the vote for American women, known as woman suffrage, was the single largest enfranchisement and extension of democratic rights in our nation’s history. Along

Women and those of color began to speak out for their right to vote and fight back against the injustices they were facing. Their problem was that if they didn’t have anyone in power to defend them, they wouldn’t make any progress. It was crucial for them to have the right to vote to get people in power that would help them get their unalienable rights. During the 1850s, the women’s rights movement gathered steam, but lost momentum when the Civil War began.

Women have always had the short end of the stick, whether it was with voting, home life, or working. They were never shown the respect that they deserved or earned. They worked hard and were never repaid for their work. In the early colonial period, women were treated differently based off their wealth and religion, and after men started making laws, they gained nothing. Women went from having an unspecified class status in the early colonial period to second class status by the early republic era because men wrote the laws.

In the sociology of gender, the society stratifies people- the men dominance and the women femininity establishing a gender order. The women’s suffrage movement is the struggle for the right of women to vote and run for political positions. The rights of women have never been equal to those of men. Throughout American history women have always wanted equality between the two genders, which made women suffrage the most controversial issue dividing early Feminists into ideological lines in the early eighteen centuries. The ratification of women suffrage grant women an increase in politics-right to vote, the media, education, workforce, government and their participation in the society. Women in the early sociology experienced

For centuries men were distinguished as economic providers, while women were regarded as inferior, second class human beings. Considered inferior by nature and by law, women were inflicted with a low status in society, depriving them equal rights in their homes and in civic society. At the turn of every century, women occasionally made few headways towards the amelioration of women's ill treatment. As science and social attitudes evolved, the American society began adopting more liberal approaches toward things where conventionally conservative positions were the

The Women’s Suffrage Movement of the 1920’s worked to grant women the right to vote nationally, thereby allowing women more political equality. Due to many industrial and social changes during the early 19th century, many women were involved in social advocacy efforts, which eventually led them to advocate for their own right to vote and take part in government agencies. Women have been an integral part of society, working to help those in need, which then fueled a desire to advocate for their own social and political equality. While many women worked tirelessly for the vote, many obstacles, factions, and ultimately time would pass in order for women to see the vote on the national level. The 19th Amendment, providing women the right to vote, enable women further their pursuit for full inclusion in the working of American society.

Less than 100 years ago women did not have the right to vote, now they have the ability to run for president; yet equality in the workforce between men and women is a continuing struggle. For many years women have had to fight to be treated equally as men. Women did not get the right to vote until 1920, and even after they did, women have to work harder to get to the same spot or position compared to a man.

Throughout much of history, women have been viewed as inferior to men. In the 1800s and early 1900s, women were not allowed to hold the same jobs or
