Women's social status in the 1900s lacked some much deserved respect. In the beginning of the 1900s, women had extremely limited freedom.Still, women have more disadvantages than men in the work environment, but in the 1900s the gap between men and women in the work world was huge. Women dealt with many political issues and civil rights such as being allowed to smoke in public, being allowed to vote, and establishing their place in the work world. (Baxamusa) Women were thought of objects of beauty, and mothers. (Baxamusa) Women went from not even going to school, to being professors. Women in the 1900s have come a long way, but not without working hard to earn it.
