Document Summary
Look at relation between what horses said about their own women in guliver travels: feminism includes minorities. The formation of various waves of feminism, that are difficult to bring back to one point. The aggregational moment: the need to be fairly represented politically. Pass laws that will allow you to be protected. Right to vote the most touching book she has read, a woman sibilla alerarmo. Men used to see women with work rights and freedom she was raped, married person who had raped her, had a baby, and felt imprisoned. The class that has more time to fight for rights fight less. These are necessity of middle class rather than bourgeouis. Practical feminism: not necessarily political, tries to implement/ to take over responsibilities that politically still not taken care of by the laws, socially laws cant take care of.
