HELPPPP Prompt- paragraph

How were the social, political, and economic rights of women limited in the early 1800s, and what steps did reformers take to enact change?

Answer 1

During the early 1800s, women in society were considered to be second class citizens. They were restricted to stay at homes and obey the male members of the family. Women were also denied to the right of voting during the early 1800s.

However, women became a major part of many reform movements in the later 1800's. They fought for their rights. During their first gathering in Seneca Falls, New York, women demanded that they were equal to men and should not be considered as second class citizens. During the later movements, they struggled for the right to vote and work out of home.
