3 Ways The Fight For Women's Rights Continues 95 Years After Suffrage
America separated from Britain in 1776. On August 18, 1920, American women got the vote. Before the independence the women's suffrage is referred, it needed time over more than 144 years from it. 95 years have passed since then, however, women's rights are not complete. It is considered that the United State whose politics, economy and culture are advanced though the women's rights still have some problems. One of the issues is the pay gap, it is between men to women is even wider. Especially, it's against women who work as full time working or who graduate from college. By taking on maternity leave the pay gap is also widely due to not guarantteeing paid maternity leave but for some reasons, when females have children, their earnigs decrease, however, when males have children, their earnigs increase. Nowadays, there are some contries where is being particularly progressive toward women or have a female president though America has never. In the business also female leaders who are CEOs are extremely less than males, however labor force of women and men are almost the same percent. We have to know that we have to work for establishing a freer and fairer of women among those hard realities. 95 years have passed since American women got the vote, however, for women's rights the fight continues.
