Feminism grew out of the broader reform movements of the 19th century, particularly the abolitionist movement and the temperance movement. Many women involved in these efforts began to recognize the parallels between their struggles for social justice and women's rights. This realization led to organized efforts advocating for gender equality, culminating in significant events such as the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, which marked the formal beginning of the women's rights movement.
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.
