The Women's Rights Movement might have started with the Women's Suffrage Movement,
but continued long after, because some women "want it all": They want to work before getting married, give births, raise kids, then return to work
Interestingly the same CNBC business news network featured an "Is there still a glass ceiling [against working women]" debate between two women
Guest #1: "Notice how few CEO's or middle managers are women Of course the glass ceiling still exists"
Guest #2: "Men still dominate most professions,
but the average female teacher / nurse / paralegal / accountant / fashion model actually makes out better
especially since women can expect to live longer than men"
Guest #1: "That can't be true! Women are still getting paid less than men for doing the same jobs"
Being able to vote means being able to speak on a subject and having an opportunity to be heard
Whether anyone will be taken seriously is hard to say, but over time most people agree every women should be able to choose her preferred rep in government
It's indirect democracy Favorable election results do not always bring immediate benefit to any one person voting in the majority
That's why Women's Rights Movement is still ongoing
Instead of making huge donations or hiring lobbyists to speak for them,
women's rights groups are protesting (in front of the US Supreme Court building) for abortion rights, equal pay for identical work, etc
so the benefits fought for collectively can be enjoyed by ALL women, not just the female protestors
