Mainly women wanted these because women felt like they were treated as inferior and wanted to be equal and to have a say in what happens and for that say to count. The constitution says that we wanted freedom. If women can't vote, then how are they free?

Women wanted equal rights because they believed they were worth more than just cleaning the house and taking care of kids. They thought it was unfair that only men could vote and own land.

Does women has equal rights?

Women only have partial equal rights, however, that is just fine with most women. Do you want to know why? It is because the other half of having equal rights would mean that women (myself included) would have to register for the draft. Most women only want to be able to say they can vote, they don't care that if the govern ment needs to use the draft that those rights they were whining to have could potentially kill the men they love, because they're to selfish to see that if they want equal rights they should have to accept the good WITH the bad.
