IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND WOMEN'S RIGHTS AS A WHOLE, WE MUST UNDERSTAND THE ROLES THEY PLAYED IN THE 19TH CENTURY. IN THE 19TH CENTURY, MEN DOMINATED THE PUBLIC FEAR BY PARTICIPATING IN POLITICS, WORKING, AND VOTING, WHILE WOMEN STAYED HOME AND COOKED, CLEANED, AND RAISED CHILDREN. IN A LOT OF STATES, THERE WERE RESTRICTIONS ON WOMEN RIGHTS, THINGS SUCH AS VOTING OWNING PROPERTY, AND HAVING CONTROL OF THEIR OWN INCOME/ COULDN'T GET A JOB; IT IS ABSURD THAT WOMEN HAD THAT MANY RESTRICTIONS. IF YOU HAVE ANY THOUGHTS ON THE FIRST LESSON THEN YOU CAN COMMENT ANY IDEAS BELOW.
