in Mexico and the United States of America have played an important role structuring their society and elevating their status. Between 1846 and 1930, the stereotype and position of women within these countries differed vastly from one another. While various traditional roles of women remained the same, the manner in which they were viewed differed.

America’s war with Mexico had its supporters and its critics. In 1821 Mexico was declared free from the mother country, Spain. Mexico was stretched from Guatemala to Oregon.
