Hello readers,
Today, March 8th, is International Women's Day! This makes me think of a lot of things; what is it to be a women today, the expectations of women and girls and what i can do to promote women s rights?
Back when women received the right to vote, feminism was popular among women but not men and since then people think that's all we can do and feminism has become a taboo subject. But in the past year many campaigners have spoke out to say that we still aren't equal to men. Emma Watson's campaign HeForShe has got many men also thinking about what they can do, because men are a large part of gaining equality.
Along with Emma Watson, people such as Tavi Gevinson and Lena Dunham have spoken out about women's rights. So as much as we still have a long way to go with women's rights and equality, things are looking up. So I for one am postive!
Thank you,
