USA! USA! USA! Thats what people of America think. They think America is the one and only county and any other country or issue matters. America may be the youngest but its not the only country. Lots of other counties have women rights laws and others have some brutal laws against women. Some countries women cant drive, required to listen to their husbands, and are killed in honor (Best and Worst Places for women). Women in other counties don't have the luxuries that women have had the chances to fight for and receive in America. But in Great Britain women fought for their rights just like here in America.
Even though they started looking for their rights in the 1860s the women of the UK didn't recieve full rights until 1928s (History). The idea was started with a philosopher but that same year, the first committee was founded for women suffrage (history). In 1918, women over 30 received the right to vote which was the first out break for the women in UK (history). There for America is not the one and only country that has women suffrage or shun women. There are other counties other then America.
