Answer:

  • Before the revolution,women had no political rights in  France; they could not vote or hold any political office. They were considered "passive" citizens; forced to rely on men to determine what was best for them in the government.
  • But during the revolution,women started their own political clubs and newspapers ,they demanded the right to vote and they demanded to be elected to the Assembly and to hold political office.
  • The women thought that their participation in the revolution would pressurize the government to pass the laws that would improve their lives.One of their demands was that they wanted to enjoy the same rights as that of men.
