Feminism is a political, social, philosophical and economic movement that aims to claim women's rights, promote women's empowerment and reinforce women's liberation from patriarchal standards, in other words, feminism seeks respect and equality for all women. women around the world.
Although the feminist movement has achieved an improvement - for the lives of women in our society, it is still an important issue for the period we are living in because women are not yet treated with full social, political and economic equality. Even in a developed culture like America, women are still undervalued, stigmatized, raped and placed in disadvantageous positions in relation to men. There is a very long way for America to meet all women's requirements and that is why this movement is so important.
The importance of feminism is highlighted in less developed societies than America, where women suffer even greater problems, being deprived of any freedom or quality of life. As an example, we can mention women in Pakistan who are prohibited from receiving quality education, or women who need to undergo genital mutilation in more than 30 countries in Africa and Asia, for completely sexist issues.
Accordingly, we can say that feminism has a long way to go and it is far from being fully addressed and that is why it must be an important issue not only for women, but for all human beings.
