Women's Rights Movement
1 Women's rights are guarantees of political, social, and economic
equality for women in a society that traditionally gives more power and freedom
to men. Among these rights are control of property, equality of opportunity in
education and employment, right of voting, and freedom of marriage. Today,
complete political, economic, and social equality with men remains to be
achieved.
2 Male control was obvious from the time of the
earliest written historical records, probably as a result of men's role in
hunting and warfare. The belief that women were naturally weaker and inferior to
men was also found in god-centered religions. Therefore, in most traditional
societies, women generally were at a disadvantage. Their education was limited
to learning domestic skills, and they had no access to positions of power. A
woman had no legal control over her person, her own land and money, or her
children.
3 The Age of Enlightenment and the Industrial
Revolution, which caused economic and social progress, provided a favorable
climate for the rise of women's rights movement in the late 18th and 19th
century. In 1848 more than 100 persons held the first women's rights convention
in New York, and the feminists demanded equal rights, including the
vote.
4 In the late 1960s women made up about 40 percent
of the work force in England, France, Germany, and the United States. This
figure rose to more than 50 percent by the mid-1981s. A commission under the
President was established in 1960 to consider equal opportunities for women.
Acts of Congress entitled them to equality in education, employment, and legal
rights. In 1964 the Civil Rights Act, initially intended only for blacks was
extended to women.
5 The objectives of the women's
movement included equal pay for equal work, federal support for day-care
centers, recognition of lesbian(女性同性恋) rights, making abortion legal, and the
focus of serious attention on the problems of forced sex relations, wife and
child beating, and discrimination against older and minority women.
