MyCauseIs :: Women's Rights

Why This Cause Matters Members: 67
submitted by HMSVictory
All women should have fundamental rights, as well as more general rights, such as equal access to jobs and health care, along with the ability to make personal decision about their lives without worrying about criticism or discrimination from society. According to the BBC website, the United States is the only Western country not to have joined the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, which essentially provides equal opportunities and rights for women under law. This is not a radical concept, but rather fundamental. Support equal rights for women.

Why I Support This Cause!
womens rights
the other day in civics and economics we were discussing the topic when one ignorant boy raises his hand and was like"women feel like they need to be apart of everything." and it just made me really think about how our society today is still extremely sexist!!!

Women's Rights = Human Rights
Women's rights as an issue is really an issue of human rights. It may seem like a tired argument, but I know plenty of women who are tired of fighting for equality, and so they keep making this argument.
