Gender Equality

My paper is primarily on having equal rights between men and women. I think women in the Victorian Age were men's slaves, when they married the husband own the women as if they were property;therefore, the women in the relationship has to do whatever the man asks her to do without questioning him. There was not much the woman could do about how her husband treated her because she did not have any rights at that time to where she could stand up for herself. All they were expected to do is do whatever their husband told them to and keep the house up. I feel so sad for women back then because i could not imagine not being able to have freedom to where i could pursue whatever i desired. I am so thankful for all the women that stood up for women's rights and that fought until they got the Married Woman's Property Act of 1882. This was a great start to getting women rights of their own. Everything started to progress after that.
