During World War II, women enjoyed high pay and benefits. However, the tables were turned after the war and they returned to the lower pay. This cause a feminist movement that actually changed the laws of Australia.
Many rights were not in the original Constitution of the United States. The rights of freedom of speech, religion, assembly, the right to keep and bear arms, freedom from slavery, voting rights, women's rights, and many more were not present. The Bill of Rights added most of these freedoms, but the end of slavery, voting rights, and the rights of women were not established until much later.
In this, he was simply a child of his era, and of the existing French laws and customs that didn't allow many rights to women. It did not help that his own wife Josephine de Beauharnais was famous for her tantrums, her infidelities and her spectacular spending habits. These things tend to influence a husband's views on how much rights and freedoms women should be granted.
Many rights campaigners lament about the declining freedoms of women in Egyptian society. A 2013 U.N. survery revealed that 99.3% of Egyptian women had experienced harassment, which included sexual harassment and abuse and 60% of the women said they had been touched inappropriately.
The rights of women stayed the same but in 2009 there was a magna carta made for women stating their rights. (it wasnt made in 2009 just signed and put into parts of the world that needed it.)
ANSWER: They serve to impede the spread of natural rights around the world. Women are people and have the same rights as men. This is what the womens movement is and should be about. If a woman has her rights abrogated and derogated, for whatever reason, she has been wronged and has every right to use our Constitutional government to redress those grievances. The phrase "womens rights" suggest that women have rights different than natural rights. This would be privilege, and it is not privilege that the women's movement wants, (at least I think that's correct) they want to enjoy their rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Womens rights and gay rights and minority rights in general are so called "civil rights" which are granted by a government. Natural rights are owned by the people, always, at all times. The greatest minority in the world is the individual, and it is their natural rights, not civil rights that make them free.
women had no rights in the eyes of the government they were worthless as the gov. said were powerless and had no rights to fight in the war so they made it a law the women could not fight in the war

Spartan women had more rights and freedoms than Athenian women. Spartan women were educated, could own property, and participate in sports, while Athenian women had limited rights and were mostly confined to the home as wives and mothers.
Depends on how early your talking about. Before the 1920's women, African Americans, Irish, Italians, immigrants, Native Americans, and many other racial groups did not have equal rights and freedoms. Some of the mentioned groups may have had equal rights and freedoms lawfully, but in society were frowned upon and denied the rights and freedoms they were supposed to have. Women gained the right to vote in the 1920's making them more equal to the men population of American citizens.
ha womens rights. good one.
