ramatoulaye and aisatou are the same in that they were brought up by the same tradition and same traditional beliefs but what makes different from the other women in society is that they are educated. They had the oppotunity to go for tetiary education, hence, they are ablr to see man oppresswion against woman and how their tradition "islam" oppresses and diprives them of rights. Moreover, they risist to their husbands initiatives to marry second wives, however, diferently. Ramatoulaye compares to assatou in that they both valued their marriages and they had married for love but the norms and traditions of lslam forced them otherwise.
Some achievements of nineteenth century feminism include the establishment of women's rights organizations, the fight for suffrage, and the promotion of women's education. However, limitations include the exclusion of women of color and working-class women from the movement, as well as the persistence of gender inequality in various spheres of society. Additionally, some feminists held racist and elitist views, which hindered intersectional progress.
The book "Toward a Feminist Theory of the State" was written by Catharine A. MacKinnon and published in 1989.
No, not all women are part of the feminist movement. Feminism is a belief in and advocacy for gender equality, but individuals have different beliefs and may not align themselves with the feminist movement.
The idea that Western women are spoiled is a myth. It is unfair and inaccurate to generalize an entire group of women based on their geographic location. Women, like men, have a wide range of personalities, values, and experiences that cannot be simplified or categorized into stereotypes. It is important to avoid making assumptions based on misinformation or stereotypes.
Political feminism emerged in the late 19th century in response to women's exclusion from politics and limited rights. Influenced by the Enlightenment and liberal ideas, feminists called for women's suffrage, equal rights, and an end to gender-based discrimination. The movement gained momentum through the efforts of suffragettes, activists, and organizations advocating for women's empowerment and social change.
The modern feminist movement became more organized and focused after the second wave of feminism in the 1960s and 1970s. During this time, feminists rallied around issues such as reproductive rights, workplace equality, and gender-based violence. This wave of activism laid the foundation for ongoing feminist organizing and advocacy efforts.
The goal of the feminism movement was not to establish dominance or superiority over men. Instead, it aimed to achieve gender equality and address the systemic oppression and discrimination faced by women.
People started noticing feminism as a organized movement in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The first wave of feminism emerged during this time, with women advocating for gender equality, suffrage, and social reforms. However, feminist ideas and movements existed prior to this, with proto-feminist figures and feminist activism taking place throughout history in different cultures and contexts.
Radical feminism is when feminists tend to look at the family in a more critical and negative way. They argue that men benefit more from family life than women. They have conducted much research into housework and childcare, and argue that men do very little compared to women. They often see marriage as a type of a prison for a woman, and claim that men may use violence against women if they do not get their own way. Radical feminism supports family diversity, especially single-parent and gay famillies and dissagree with functionalists and the New Right that the nuclear family is always the best family type.
When on the other hand there is Marxist feminism which is quite different from Radical. Marxist feminists also look at the family in a negative way but they argue that the main cause of women's oppression is not patriarchy but capitalism - the economic system that exists in most countries in the world. Under capitalism those who own the factories, businesses and offices - the capitalists or upper class - exploit those who have to work for them - the proletariat or working class.

Aview of literature that allows the reader to focus on issues regarding women <APEX>
OK so basically it did and it didn't. firstly during WW. this was the first time women had been allowed to do work out side of the home and not be judge for it. it become very common for women to be working in factories and agriculture because all of the men were away fighting in the war. Strong opposition to women suffrage changed their opinions, and with out the war women definitively wouldn't have got the vote in 1918. so obviously in the first war their status did improve slightly. How ever after the war their roles was pushed back into the home, and only 11% of women who were previously in work were left in work. on to world war two, now this was much better for women having only 8 million women being employed in factories and agriculture. they put their lives on the line in munitions factories and there is no way we could have won the war without them. during WW there was also groups such as then women terestrial army, and the WRAF woman's royal air force- this particular group allowed women to fly in plains abroad to occupied France to deliver the planes to the solders. furthermore the introduction as using women as spies was introduced. this was such a huge improvement and women loved it, even former PM Asquith said that 'we couldn't have won the war with out them' and that 'they have proved them self in society and are truly equal and capable'. he was previously one of the biggest opposition to female suffrage. However once again after the war the government pushed women back into the home using slogans such as 'kill germs, not Germans' and advertising showing women looking glamorous while doing house work. one thing did stay the same however and that was the style change, it was know OK for women to be out in public dating, wearing trousers and having short hair and skirts, it was now seen as OK to smoke and women had a new lease of life. however the biggest changes came in the 60s, the film 'made in daganem' is very informative about this, new fashion came in and it was a hole new era for women confidence and feminism. also the equal pay act was introduced (made in daganem is about this).
chucking up the deuce, i'm out dawgs!
Feminists view the socialization process as a root cause of misogyny and as the potential source for teaching gender equality and respect for all people regardless of their gender. It all depends on the role models available to the individuals who are being socialized.
Socialization is the process by which children (and adults) learn from others. Generally, we learn from observing our parents during the first decade or two of our development. The socialization process is instrumental in whether a child learns to respect others and embrace the equality of all people or whether a child learns to disrespect others and treat them, especially women, as inferior subordinates.
The more positive social experiences a child has the happier and more successful they tend to be. An overabundance of negative experiences and examples can lead to an unhappier child who is pessimistic and negative in their attitudes. Lack of respect and negative attitudes about women are learned during early development and can arrest personal growth for a lifetime. A negative experience (and role model) can teach a boy that it okay to disrespect and abuse a girl or woman and it teaches a young girl that she is inferior to boys and should expect to be disrespected and abused.
Fortunately, a person who has a strong character can direct their own socialization and learn new perspectives from observing others outside the family but many, many children fall victim to their parent's failures and negative attitudes.

Many people consider Lilith, the woman before Eve, to be the first feminist because she left Eden and refused to submit to Adam.
Many people say that she was, but there is no recorded evidence that she had a relationship with anyone male or female. However women of that time practiced lesbianism as a form of birth control. It was looked down upon but it got the job done and the only legal way to prevent yourself from getting pregnant. If she was in fact a lesbian then it was probably with her partner Lucy Burns. But no one knew to write it down.
The feminist movement was also known as the women's movement, feminism, or women's liberation. It refers to campaigns that originally were focused on inequality in the workplace for women. Campaigns were use to try and get reform on issues that included equal pay, maternity leave, reproductive rights, and sexual harassment.

In his letter to the young women of Malolos written in 1889, Jose Rizal pays homage to the 20 courageous women of the town for their desire to educate themselves, truly, a liberating action at that time. Rizal sees in these women a ray of hope in restoring the Filipino woman's dignity and worth, which are being denigrated at that time. He emphasizes the importance of the Filipino mothers, as it is in their nurturing hands where the children's future lie-whether they be free or enslaved. In this respect, Rizal compares the Filipino woman vis-a-vis the European women and using the Spartan women as model, he cites examples of the way the Spartan women see themselves. Rizal advices the Filipino women to use reason, to know what a good mother is, and how to become one. Rizal reiterates that a good mother teaches honor, honesty, love of fellowmen, and respect for God. He urges them to ponder on his words and use reason to determine what is just from unjust.
Rizal ends his letter exhorting the women to "open your children's eyes so they may jealously guard their honor, love their fellowmen and their native land and do their duty."
Notes: Written in Tagalog, Jose Rizal wrote this letter-upon the request of Marcelo H. del Pilar-on 17 February 1889 in London while annotating Morga's book. The letter praises the young women of Malolos for their perseverance to pursue the establishment of a "night school" where they can study Spanish. Based on accounts, on 12 December 1888, 20 young women from Malolos petitioned Governor-General Weyler for the establishment of a "night school" to study Spanish under Teodoro Sandiko, a professor of Latin. However, Fr. Felipe Garcia, the Spanish parish priest, objected to the petition, prompting the governor-general to dismiss the petition. Unperturbed, the young women continued with their clamor (for the establishment of the school) and eventually succeeded. Señora Guadalupe Reyes became the teacher of the women. The school remained open for three months.
