Credit Card Offers for Women

According to the survey held by Stanford University School of Medicine, about 17 million of U.S. consumers are compulsive shoppers. It means that one in 20 cannot control the urge to shop. And the consequences of shopaholism can be really serious - people lose their jobs, families, and their finances as well. During these uncertain economic times even responsible buyers are tightening their belts. And what about compulsive shoppers who constantly have problems with credit cards and money management. The question is, will financial crisis change spending habits of compulsive shoppers for the better or worse?

No secret to anyone that women are more likely to give into impulse buying and spend hundreds, thousands of dollars because "this bag perfectly matches the belt I got last week!", "that white pearl necklace is just what I was dreaming about my entire life!". But these little flaws are what makes a woman a woman. A lot of women use their credit cards for shopping sprees, going to parties, living glamour social life. No wonder that many female cardholders find themselves buried in debt one fine day. And often astronomical debts of $50,000 or more end up in declaring bankruptcy.

In 1920, US women succeeded in their fight for voting right for women. They did not stop on getting equal voting rights for all US citizens, regardless of gender. They continued the campaign for women's rights. The past fifty years became a breakthrough in the US civil society in terms of equalization of men and women rights.

Now men and women can work at the same positions, get equal salaries for the same work, and have equal credit opportunities. Let's make a retrospective journey into the history of how women achieved their goals in the fight for equal rights, concerning labor conditions, wage levels and credit opportunities.
