The industrial revolution started reforms and protests from the women. They were angry. Women in factories made one third as much money as men.
Many women decided to form unions. They often questioned why they were denied their own rights as women based on gender. The movement for women's rights started in the United States in 1848. Women activists around the world joined to found the International Council for Women in 1888. In 1889, 27 countries attended the meeting.
I believe that women should have equal opportunity to receive the same pay for their work. Everyone should receive equal pay for the work that they are performing. I can only imagine how society would be if the people in the world were treated equal and fair in their employment.
