Looking Through The Feminist Lens


Image result for feminist synonym
Feminist lens, a lens that you can use to discover the reality of women's rights through the views of political, economic, and social in comparison to men. I chose the Feminist Lens because I find a book interesting and fascinating when men are portrayed differently than women. Across previous cultures and centuries, it has been shown that men were typically more powerful and stronger than women, yet I do not believe that to be true. According to our passed history when slavery was an issue, women were generally considered a lower standard than men because they couldn't do what men could. Throughout history, men considered women to be less powerful and capable of doing certain kinds of work such as how it was in the 18th century when slavery was a huge issue. The men were the ones forced to do the hard work while the women had to stay home. My personal beliefs about the topics covered by this lens is that women should deserve the right to have a just as equal amount of respect and opportunity as men. Perhaps in the real world when doing such things like working at tough jobs like construction and other hard labor.

  1. Who's to say "men can do more than women", but women deserve to be treated like they "can" do it. Interesting that you believe this, and still are fighting/writing for feminism.
