The French women's were disappointed that the French Constitution of 1791 made them passive citizens. They demanded the right to vote, to be elected to the Assembly and to hold political positions. The fight for the right to vote continued through an international suffrage movement during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.It was finally in 1946 that women in France won the right to vote. The political activities of French women during the revolutionary years inspired many women around the world..
