Preface
------------
People use the terms 'psychological', mental etc, very freely. But many of those who use these terms are far from having a real understanding of the nature, scope, methods and uses of psychology as a scientific discipline. Some people regard it as a part of Philosophy.
Women Psychology is an approach to psychology that focuss on issues concerning gender, female human identity, and the issues that women face throughout their lives. Throughout history, women have been regarded as the weaker of the sexes and afforded fewer rights, which include but are not limited to education, legal and career opportunities. For women, being a wife and a mother has long been regarded their most significant and only important profession. It was only in the 20th century that widespread countries finally saw women as a sex with a persuasive voice. In the 20th century, most women were afforded the right to go to college, opening the door to more career opportunities than becoming a teacher or nurse. In that century, feminism also opened the door to women gaining a voice in politics with the right to vote, which in turn gave women the right to run for office. The cultural shifts and changes in attitude toward women began in the 20th century in almost every nation and continued into the 21st century, as the traditional roles of women in society continued to be rewritten
