The Women"s Right"s Movement Liberation was one of the most important issues of all time. Without equal rights, today"s women wouldn"t be able to vote, work the same jobs as men, or get an abortion based on their own personal decision and beliefs. .

             Throughout history, women have had fewer legal rights, and far less job opportunities than men. Women"s lib. has reevaluated these traditional views and given women the rights they have deserved. It proved that women are just as good as men in all ways, and that women can do most things equally. Men have had their rights for centuries, and women finally got theirs because of the Women"s Rights Movement.

             For a very long time, women have been viewed as very creative in terms of human life. However, historically, they have been considered major sources of temptation and evil, and of being intellectually inferior to men. This started mostly because of the views of women in Christian theology.

             Women are often thought of as weaker than men, unable to perform work requiring muscular strength, or even intellectual development. Because of this, it was expected that women take care of the children, wash clothes, etc., instead of the "heavier" jobs like hunting and plowing. The women were thought of as the weak sex, although their duties were quite strenuous. .

             The stereotype that "a women"s place is in the home" has determined many of the ways that women express themselves. Women are generally expected to stay home and care for the children. With contraception and legalized abortion, women have greater control over the number of children they will bear.

             Although these methods have helped to free women for roles other than motherhood, cultural pressures fir women to become wives and mothers prevents many talented women from pursuing careers and going to college.

             Education for girls has historically been secondary to that of boys.
