Similarly, societally women have been known to give up their last name when they become wed and take that of their husbands. Marriage is a union of property, and by changing the last name it is succumbing to the man and becoming \u201cwife\u201d not \u201cman and woman\u201d which seems to be more equitable.\u00a0 \u00a0Women\u2019s rights have been evolving since America first started to create laws for the people.\u00a0 With time, women have started to become more eligible to undertake in the equivalent acts as men.\u00a0 However, there has been a strong perception that women are only good for certain things and should not do some of the same things because they are inept. I will examine the timeline in Americas history of women gaining rights through time and compare those rights to other nations around the world.\u00a0 I will look at underdeveloped and modern European counties to make my comparisons.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Value:<\/p>\n<p>America prides itself on being the nation of freedom, yet there is a different variation of freedom based on gender.\u00a0 If this is commonly known throughout todays society, why do we still have discrimination based on gender? With the advancement of society, and the people of America becoming more accepting to new social ideas, why are women still considered to be lesser then men?\u00a0 Sex should not be a justification of mal treatment.\u00a0 Women are starting to gain more recognition in society, with that more changes will have to be made to accommodate powerful women who seek out change.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Originality:<\/p>\n<p>While information on women in the United States might be easier to come by, looking for credible examples of how women are treated poorly in other nations may be more difficult.\u00a0 In the article \u201cSpeaking truth to Power: Women\u2019s Rights as Human Rights\u201d, the emphasis is on the results since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948 will help with the evaluation of the timeline since then to present day to review the change that has or has not been since that time.\u00a0 Similarly, in the reading, \u201cOutgrowing the Compact of the Fathers: Equal Rights, Woman Suffrage, and the United States Constitution\u201d, discusses the beginnings of the women\u2019s rights movements, touching on when the U.S Constitution was first written.\u00a0 Both of these resources will provide information about the past and the start of the negativity towards women.\u00a0 Furthermore, these facts will act as a bridge connecting todays discrimination to that of previous centuries thus providing more comparisons to be made.\u00a0 This will also allow for noticing the growth that has been made since this time, and the improvements that are still yet to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Practicality:<\/p>\n<p>This is an ongoing topic that doesn\u2019t seem to have a defined ending point.\u00a0 Real world examples that have happened in the past and that are current can serve as justification to prove that women in todays society are thought to be less significant than men.\u00a0 The Dickinson Library contains multiple books that will be essential for me to review in order to understand why the divide is so prevalent.\u00a0 This includes most of the items located in the International Women\u2019s Periodicals, 1786-1933: Social and Political Issues (Archives Unbound) database as well as the GenderWach and Women Studies International Databases.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Criag, Murphy N. <em>Seeing Women, Recognizing Gender, Recasting International Relations. <\/em>Cambridge, United Kingdom\u00a0 : Cambridge University Press, 1996.<\/p>\n<p>This source will be helpful to use throughout the writing process because it analyzes the<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Crocco, Margaret S. <em>Speaking Truth to Power: Women\u2019s Rights as Human Rights. <\/em>The Social Studies (Washington, D.C.) 2007.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>DuBois, Ellen Carol. <em>Outgrowing the Compact of the Fathers: Equal Rights, Woman Suffrage, and the United States Constitution<\/em>.
