hi,
I have been doing a project on this and i have found a couple things, there mostly about womans rights in the past:
Many socitie's man believed woman were more emotional then men by nature and less intelligent (research has showed males and females of equal intelligence and emotional range).
-In Greek city: Athens 500-300 BC woman raised children, and managed then weaving and cooking.
-In Egypt(sp) woman, however could own properties and manage buisness.
-"Womans movments"started in the 1800's for the right to vote
-The biggest wave after that was in the 1960's looking for fairness in work places with men.thats all i got
