Women during the French Revolution were viewed as lesser humans than men. They were excluded from the Declaration of the Rights of Men which granted all men in France certain rights. During part of the Revolution women were allowed to inherit property, but this right was revoked by Napoleon. In the later years of the Revolution women's right to express their views was reduced. Women's clubs were banned and violators were arrested. Women were imprisoned and executed.
