The First World War and Women's Equality

World War I between 1914 and 1918 and women's equality were a turning point in the history of many things, including the women's rights movement. In this paper, we will focus on the influence of war on women's movements. Before the war, women had less rights than men. They are prohibited from working in heavy industry (mining and factory) and "full time" occupation (such as lawyers, managerial positions) paying high salaries at that time. Women can work only in domestic medical, domestic affairs and nursing.

After the Second World War, women's equality struggle achieved different success stories. In the 1940s and 1950s, women 's rights movement got the same opportunity in higher education and employment. Women's equality as a concept of contemporary 'feminism' appeared in the 1960's and was led by activists like Betty Friedan. Some of that victory in the legislative field is not completely intentional and one of its biggest goals and best effort themes leads to failure. In addition, sports are primarily targeted to intellectuals and professional leaders who are a little away from ordinary women. Although this movement is unpredictable, it has made great success by fundamentally changing the role of society and women and their attitudes towards women.

World War II was often said to be the turning point of the fight for equality between men and women. From the beginning, women have striven for social position, respect and rights. Prior to the Second World War, the role of women in society was cooked, cleaned, and viewed as a living person. The year before and after the war came the turning point of the battle for equality. We had the opportunity to prove ourselves for the first time as women were seen as being able to be outside the kitchen once.
