FEMINISM : A POSITIVE CHANGE

 

FEMINISM :  A POSITIVE CHANGE

Charles Fourier, a French philosopher first came up with the word "féminisme" meaning feminism In 1837 which soon became popular and first appeared in western countries like Netherlands and France by 1890’s. Feminism is a movement with a sole objective of establishing equality of the sexes. The primary aim of all the feminist is just to end the social discrimination against women and providing them with equal rights.

Many scholars believed the ideology of feminism as they were able to identify the aim behind it instead of questioning the present, Plato, Greek philosopher is considered to be among the first of male feminist as he never questioned the abilities of women and has provided equal opportunities to them in the field of philosophy and literature so, why a scholars and many western countries are able to understand the concept so early and yet here in the east people are still questioning the rights of women who just wants to change the world for its betterment and abolish the gender stereotypes .

Feminists have campaigned and will continue to do so in future to encourage the society and educated them about the rights and equality for women like education, equal pay rate, voting etc. Ironically, some form of feminism are being criticized for just considering different sections just a labour class or only white which may have created a dilemma in the mind set of people however instead of dividing people into two half they should just be taught the meta ideology behind feminism which may lead to change in the eastern countries mind flame and would result in creating a whole to horizon of feminism worldwide.
