In her declaration of the rights of woman and the female citizen, olympe de gouges wrote, “woman is born free and lives equal to man in her rights.” why did she choose this exact wording? what was the foundation for her argument? what were her main points? compare her document to the declaration of the rights of man and the citizen. did the fact that she was forced to produce her document prove that the french revolution had failed? how was her life representative of the role of women in the french revolution? what role did women play in those events? (both documents are presented as sources from the past features in the text.)
