The U.S. Constitution originally did not explicitly address the status of women in terms of representation or enumeration. However, the Three-Fifths Compromise, established in 1787, counted enslaved individuals as three-fifths of a person for purposes of congressional representation, but it did not specify a count for women. As a result, women were not included in any specific counting percentage in the Constitution.
