Women in the 1900s

The 20th century produced dramatic changes and opportunities for women. The events leading up to statehood brought to an official end at least the practice of polygamy, and the state constitution restored women's right to vote and guaranteed other equal rights. Laws passed in 1911 and 1913 set maximum hours and minimum wages for working women. Technology dramatically altered women's lives, especially in urban areas. Electric service, indoor plumbing, central heating, and the small power motor revolutionized homemaking. The growth of commercial laundries and expanding factory production of clothing, processed foods, and other household items relieved women of many tasks and created hundreds of jobs for them outside the home. Manufacturing, retail and wholesale trade, banking, and services grew rapidly in the early 20th century.   (http://historytogo.utah.gov/utah_chapters/statehood_and_the_progressive_era/alookatworkingwomenintheearly20thcentury.html)

My thoughts on this:
I think that this is great! I believe that women do have a right to vote and work for minimum wage just like guys. Guys and Girls are no different. I also think it is great for women to work outside there homes. There is no reason a women needs to be a home 24/7 working. I believe a man can do household work just like a women can. I mean women have the choice now of working at home if they want and I believe that is they way it should be. I am thankful for all the changes that were made in the 1900s because I would not want to live that way. Guys and girls should have equal rights!
