OK so basically it did and it didn't. firstly during WW. this was the first time women had been allowed to do work out side of the home and not be judge for it. it become very common for women to be working in factories and agriculture because all of the men were away fighting in the war. Strong opposition to women suffrage changed their opinions, and with out the war women definitively wouldn't have got the vote in 1918. so obviously in the first war their status did improve slightly. How ever after the war their roles was pushed back into the home, and only 11% of women who were previously in work were left in work. on to world war two, now this was much better for women having only 8 million women being employed in factories and agriculture. they put their lives on the line in munitions factories and there is no way we could have won the war without them. during WW there was also groups such as then women terestrial army, and the WRAF woman's royal air force- this particular group allowed women to fly in plains abroad to occupied France to deliver the planes to the solders. furthermore the introduction as using women as spies was introduced. this was such a huge improvement and women loved it, even former PM Asquith said that 'we couldn't have won the war with out them' and that 'they have proved them self in society and are truly equal and capable'. he was previously one of the biggest opposition to female suffrage. However once again after the war the government pushed women back into the home using slogans such as 'kill germs, not Germans' and advertising showing women looking glamorous while doing house work. one thing did stay the same however and that was the style change, it was know OK for women to be out in public dating, wearing trousers and having short hair and skirts, it was now seen as OK to smoke and women had a new lease of life. however the biggest changes came in the 60s, the film 'made in daganem' is very informative about this, new fashion came in and it was a hole new era for women confidence and feminism. also the equal pay act was introduced (made in daganem is about this).

chucking up the deuce, i'm out dawgs!

Women have different definitions for what is and is not beautiful. During the 19th century, there weren't a lot of different looks and styles to choose from. There were only a few styles and it seemed as if people felt that their style was all the only style.

Beauty is not an easy thing to describe. Beauty is an idea. Beauty is something that someone is fond of. Beauty is something that the person finds to be pleasant to the eye. The most important concept about beauty is that it is in the eye of the beholder. There are over 6 billion people on this planet. Each person is unique; therefore, the term beautiful is going to have many different meanings. For instance, the Mona Lisa painting is considered to be a great work of art to some and to others it is simply a picture of an average looking women. This paper will discuss the 19th century's version of beauty and compare and contrast it to today's society's view.

The 19th century culture was very different than today. It seemed as if people were considered credible little education. People thought what researchers said about women, was the gospel. Men were considered superior to women. To keep this theory alive, men tried their best to find ways to keep women inferior to them. Sadly, the notion that women were lesser beings than men was widely practiced during the 19th century. Some men did not feel this way during that time, but many did.

In contemporary society it is safe to say that women are different than they were in the 19th century. Change has occurred but maybe not for the better. People generally have mixed opinions when it comes to the progress of women's beauty over the years. In contemporary society, the notion of what makes women beautiful is also different. This is the typical thought process for women in our society today. Women feel as if beauty is only what is on the outside. Women become obsessed with their image and do everything they can to make it "perfect." The sad thing is many women don't know when to stop. Most women who have one operation are more prone to do another. Some women get operations because they don't feel that they are beautiful. Women should feel beautiful the way they are. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and people will like you if you are a good person.

It doesn't help that the media gives all the publicity to women who are extremely beautiful on the outside. Women have to become almost anorexic to get acting roles in films. Gwen Stefani was quoted saying, "Yea, I look good. But I am always hungry." This shows that even women, who are models for everyone else, aren't necessarily happy with the way they look. If looking good means that you cannot eat something you want, then maybe it's not worth it. America is about freedom of choice. So why do so many women become prisoners of their own body? Women are taught that beauty or being beautiful will get them far in life. With that, sometimes women deem it necessary to go to great lengths to make sure their image is preserved. When women start starving themselves many bad things can arise. All of these traits can be acquired and are not healthy for a young women's health.

Things have definitely changed since the 19th century. Some for the better, some for the worse. I cannot figure out which are better and which are the worst. Everyone always says change is good. However, when a woman goes to such extremes to stay "beautiful", that is the worst.

Perhaps you are thinking of the convention held in Seneca Falls NY in mid-July 1848. It was organized by two abolitionists who also believed in greater equality for women: Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. About 200 women, and 40 men, attended; unfortunately, most of the newspapers either ridiculed the idea of women's rights or ignored the convention entirely, but modern historians understand that this was in fact the beginning of what became the fight for suffrage-- the vote-- and for expanding women's legal rights as well.
