| Since women first entered the workforce at the beginning of the twentieth century, there have been many uphill battles fought in order to acquire the same opportunities as men. These rights included womens suffrage, the right to use contraceptives, a wife being able to own property separately from her husband and the privilege for women to attain higher education. One issue that remains significantly problematic in the world is that womens earnings in the workplace are not yet equal to that of men.
