French Revolution Final Assessment: women's rights

In current day society there has been continuous controversy about the equality between men and women. Women have the same influential roles in the economy when compared to men, but many women are very disturbed by the difference in payment between women and men. Not so clear to the public eye however, there is also a difference in the distribution of jobs between sex's. Women are physically weaker than men in general, leading the employers of labor intensive jobs to more likely choose a male for the job over a female. Women also are usually not present in the personal and commercial retail job businesses. 
From the mid twentieth century to today, there have been many increases in the equal sharing of jobs between men and woman. In government, the appearance of women has been rising. This also goes for financial, transportation, and professional business services. Women have always been the majority of workforce in education and health services, maintaining an average of 75%.
Society has seen an overall climb in women's employment over the years, emulating a climbing equality of rights. The constitution of the US embodies equal rights to all citizens. However, this does not mean that society has promoted fare distribution of jobs and salary for both genders. There are still some inequalities, but at the same time things are getting better for woman.
