Declaration of the Rights of Women and the Citizen

The rights of women were completely ignored in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was primarily concerned with the rights of men.


The proto-feminist "Olymp de Gouges" wrote the "Declaration des Droits de la Femme et de la Citoyenne" (Declaration of the Rights of Women and the Citizen) in September 1791, which listed the rights of women, because these rights only involved the advantages of men.


This declaration calls for the completely legal, political, and social integration of women into the National Assembly. It also criticizes the fact that women's freedom and equality were overlooked during the revolution.


This was also indirectly related to what is now referred to as feminism in its own unique way. It also sparked a second revolution that demanded women be given the same rights and opportunities as men in all formerly male-dominated fields.
