Women's rights refer to the distinction of rights that are recognized or granted to women and girls in different societies on the planet. While in some places these rights are institutionalized or supported by laws, local customs, and social behavior, in other areas the same treatment is not carried out, reaching to repress, ignore or even deny in contrast to the rights granted to men and boys.
The topics that are most often associated with the notion of women's rights are -among others- the following: right to integrity, control of one's own body, right to vote, right to hold public office, right to work, right to fair and equal remuneration, right to own property, right to education, right to serve in the army, right to sign legal contracts, and matrimonial and parental rights.
Civil rights are those recognized by all citizens by law, and in this, they are distinguished from human rights and natural rights. Civil rights are granted within a State, while natural rights or human rights are international, and, you have, either by the mere fact of being born, according to the theory natural law, or by the mere constitution of society, according to the contractarian theory (which separates moral and law, does not consider the existence of natural rights). John Locke argued that the natural rights to life, liberty, and property should be converted into civil rights and protected by the sovereign State as an aspect of the social contract (constitutional rights).
The expression Movement for Civil Rights refers to a broad set of social activities that, developed throughout the world during the approximate period from 1954 to 1980, were aimed at soliciting and promoting certain basic civil rights (fundamentally, that of the equality of all citizens before the law). The process, which involved the appearance of numerous cases of popular rebellion before the established power, was long, complex and conflictive in several countries, with divergent results among them.
The most well-known manifestation of the Civil Rights Movement, and which is often used as a synonym for it, was the process of claiming and acquiring equality between blacks and whites in the United States.
