The Rights of Women

Women fought for their rights since the Enlightenment. Mary Wollstonecraft is one of  advocators who vindicate of rights of women. Women needed education to change their lives and to prove their abilities in the society, but they had less opportunities to attend school to get great degrees. Society set women’s role, I think the role for women at that time is like slaves. Wollstonecraft also attacked men’s maturity and understanding. She thought women might have more knowledge than men. People ‘s viewpoints were influence by manner.

On my opinion, it was hard time for advocating rights of  woman, but if advocators were not advocate it,  we would not having women’s rights. Wollstonecraft enlighten me that we should have courage to fight for what we want.  “You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.”

  1. I am very agree that women should fighting more rights for themselves, because women had also change so many unequal thing. Most of women, they were not only finghing for themselves, they also fought for their family and children. Therefore, women should have more equal rights as men had. I know, in the early of time, the women always strandard for the lower class, but after they fought the right, they got more attention and higher class living. I also think that people should make great efforts to improve quality of life and get more rights in any unequal things.

  2. I will definitely agree with this blog. Women should fight for their rights. Mary Wollstonecraft as feminist was also fought for women’s rights. Her books pointed out that “Men and women must be educated, in a great degree, by the opinions and manners of the society they live in.” As a matter of fact, women have lower position than men in society. Men could get education easily, they could do many things. On the other hand, women did not have chance for doing that. Women as weak characters, they are kind of useless people in society. In my opinion, women should fight for their rights. Human should have equal rights; women could also do some contribution to society. As the author said: “If the blind lead the blind, one need not come from heaven to tell us the consequences.” Only people have rights express what they thoughts, the country will have a real growth.
