Women's struggle for right to vote got strengthened during the First World War. During the war, many men were away for fighting and because of this, women were called upon to do the work earlier done by men.
When people saw this, they began to realise that they had created many unfair stereotypes about women. Then women organised themselves and demanded equal right as men. This movement is called the women's suffrage movement as the term suffrage usually means the right to vote.
All women demanded the right to vote for themselves and to get their demands heard, they chained themselves to railing in public places. Many suffragettes were imprisoned and went on hunger strikes.
Finally, in 1920 America provided voting right for women and later in 1928 UK also gave them the right to vote.
