The Early Woman :
The Early Woman Before the 19th century, women were expected to do nothing more than keep the home a happy place for the husband to come home to. There were few if no rights, and many women were sold to men from their families.
The Bloom of Rights :
The Bloom of Rights Starting in the late 1800s and early 1900s, women were starting to make a difference. They had jobs outside the home, and were currently called “flappers” because of the dresses they wore that blew in the wind. She was a woman who was ready to see the world and had a care-free attitude.
The 19th Amendment :
The 19th Amendment In 1919, women finally won the pivotal right: the right to vote. It was not completely accepted everywhere, and some women did not approve and refused to use it, but it was the first gunshot in a war that led to women today.

The Response :
The Response Some women, after the right to vote was given, were upset and angry. They wanted to keep the old ways strong and did not want to change. These were mostly old women who lived through other times when things like suffrage were considered scandalous. Other, younger, women were overjoyed to have the ability to do what mostly men could.
Now :
Now Women’s rights in the 20s paved the way for even more successes for women. There is the first woman congressmen, the first woman to run for president, the first woman to fly a plane, the first woman doctor. All of these are inspirational for us women today. We need to look back upon these women who fought for the right, and we need to have them inspire us.
