Person 5

While reading the posting for this week, I realized that it had many good points. Something that caught my attention while reading the article was when it said women were created equal to men through the creator. Whatever happened to leaving church and state separate? Another thing that stuck out to me was that the entire posting was about women’s rights and how they should stand up to the law. They need to stand up for their rights. This reminds me of how Martin Luther King wanted equal rights for those who didn’t have equal rights: African Americans. Another thing that stood out to me was the fact that laws that prohibit women from the pursuit of happiness are against the law, as they should be. Women are the same as men, and should have the same opportunities as men, just like the law says. The resolutions say that it is against nature to deny the rights of women. I agree with this. I believe this has played a part for the way women now-a-days are. If these women before us didn’t fight for their rights, then where would we be? I don’t think that it would have been possible for us to be where we are now. These women who fought for women’s rights played a huge role to where women are today. I personally do not think most women would be where they are now if it weren’t for the women who fought for so diligently for women’s rights. Many women are CEO’s now; would that have been possible if these women hadn’t fought for their rights and the rights of the women after them. If they didn’t fight, where would I be now?
