Womens Conditions in the 1900s

For this blog, I am supposed to write about how women were treated in the 1900s. Unlike many men, I feel that women should receive the same treatment as men do because they do have to work just as hard as we do achieve anything in America. Even though I believe this, I don’t think that they should be allowed to hold the position of President. The only reason that I believe this is because I feel they would be more stubborn and less aggressive in the case of us needing to go to war. Other than this, I will try to explain the way that women were treated in the early 1900s.
In the early 1900s, women were not treated as we as they were now. Nearly all of the women that were living in that time period were working inside of the household and only a very few ever worked outside in factories or other jobs outside of the home. The most normal time for women to work outside of the home was if they were teachers. Women were still considered inferior to men, as evidenced by lower wages, and fewer educational and employment opportunities. (Women’s Lives 1900-1920). This is what made women push for more equal treatment because they realized that they should get the same treatment as males did. Women still aren’t treated in an equal way as they should be. The only way for this to happen is for women and men who support them to keep on pushing to get more equal rights.
