Feminist Philosophies

"At the end of the 18th century, individual liberty was being hotly debated. 

There are many declarations which fight for this. for example:

In 1789, during the French Revolution, Olympe de Gouges published a 'Declaration of the Rights of Woman' 

Margaret Fuller, one of the earliest female reporters, wrote 'Woman in the Nineteenth Century' in 1845.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a leading theoretician of the women's rights movement. Her 'Woman's Bible', published in parts in 1895 and 1898, attacked what she called the male bias of the Bible.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman:  'Women and Economics' (1898), that women should share the tasks of homemaking, with the women best suited to cook, to clean, and to care for young children doing each respective task.

Politically, many feminists believed that a cooperative society based on socialist economic principles would respect the rights of women. The Socialist Labor party, in 1892, was one of the first national political parties in the United States to include woman suffrage as a plank in its platform.

Actually, women habits are changing, although most young women still married and became the traditional housewives and mothers."
