Every human is born with natural rights. Everyone has the right to live. "they are universal. Whereas nations or specialized groups enjoy specific rights that apply only to them, human rights are the rights to which everyone is entitled—no matter who they are or where they live—simply because they are alive" (Definition of Human Rights Video | What Are Human Rights?). We also have other rights that not everyone knows about. "They mean the freedom to obtain a job, adopt a career, select a partner of one’s choice and raise children. They include the right to travel widely and the right to work gainfully without harassment, abuse and threat of arbitrary dismissal. They even embrace the right to leisure" ( Definition of Human Rights Video | What Are Human Rights?). Women had rights to do everything that they weren't allowed to do all along.

I feel everyone has their rights but are not being respected. For example women have many rights today that they didn't have before. Like having the right to vote, working with men, having the right to have their voices heard ect. Even though time has passed and things have changed women are still seen lower than men. Women have the right to do anything men can but why are women working in the same places as men and doing the same job and responsibilities in the work place but still get lower pay? I feel society is so corrupt. Its not fair that we are in the 20th Century and are still not getting equal things such as job pay as men and its ridiculous. They women have "rights" but we are still portrayed the same way as back in the days.
