Best Answer

Women continued their pursuit for equal rights following the Civil War. During the war the women gained respect for proving that they could take control of the responsibilities the men had to leave when they went off to war while still maintaining their homes and family. This helped the women's rights movement immensely.

Women did not gain many rights after the Civil War. While many women wanted to have the right to vote the only states that allowed this was Utah and Wyoming.
