Women were not only told that they don't have an important role in societal problem advocacy, but also told how to handle personal problems and decisions. In Seneca Falls, New York, women played an important role in advocating against slavery. They also planned the grievances based on the Declaration of Independence and the gathering in front of 300 people. They state that "men and women are created equal" which began a controversy. The controversy stated that women shouldn't sacrifice their status as mothers and wives for gender equality. This sparked the fight for gender rights and equality and eventually succeeded in granting women the basic rights they deserve.]]> 2022-11-29 19:27:00 UTC https://padlet.com/sakankshamishra606/z94pgjo18vpn86es/wish/2402480621 sakankshamishra606 https://padlet.com/sakankshamishra606/z94pgjo18vpn86es/wish/2405657220 2022-12-01 19:26:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sakankshamishra606/z94pgjo18vpn86es/wish/2405657220 sakankshamishra606 https://padlet.com/sakankshamishra606/z94pgjo18vpn86es/wish/2405719435 On December 10th, 1869, The law was passed and in 1870, women voted for the first time in Wyoming after the women's suffrage law was passed.

They were oppressed by the males in society, as deemed superior. ]]> 2022-12-05 18:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sakankshamishra606/z94pgjo18vpn86es/wish/2409611074 sakankshamishra606 https://padlet.com/sakankshamishra606/z94pgjo18vpn86es/wish/2411415880 The overturn of Roe v Wade occurred in June 2022.

This act protests and supports responses against women's assault and abuse. This was passed after the severity of women abuse crimes were slowly brought to light as an important aspect of women's rights was women's respect. Although, women didn't ask for special treatment of any sort, women were given the minimum amount of respect whereas they deserved at least respect from one individual to another. This helped the movement as it decreased the amount of abuse and disrespect women got, which was a necessary step to help to grant women the rights they deserve.
