We have come a long way, from being restrained to only the household, to not holding the ability to have a say in our nations future. Many places around the world though women's rights have changed only a little. Prostitution, labor rights, positions in society, and many other roles of women have been affected and restrained by society's interpretation of what women should and shouldn't be allowed. I think it is sad that in some cases women must resort to prostitution just to be able to go on. Although it is true sometimes men are capable of having more endurance or strength than women we are still entitled to the same things. It is demoralizing how many times a day I here, "she can't do that, that's a man job". Being a women I think that we should be able to make the decision if we feel we are fit to do something or not. I know that I am capable of a lot, not matter how small, weak, or what gender I am.
