The Feminism Movement

Paper Summary:

This paper explains that, although Feminism, which is based on equal rights for women and men, respect for women as themselves and support for other rights movements, has come along way and in some aspects even achieved equality among men; the fact remains that no matter what women do, they will never achieve 100% equality with men. The author points out that the Equal Pay law was past in 1963 and yet, more than 40 years later, women are still paid less than men, even when women have similar education, skills and experience. The paper concludes that women must be more supportive of each other and vote for more women in leadership, especially as President of the U.S..

From the Paper:

"Feminism has failed because the glass ceiling still exists at home. It is useless to continue striving for more when it is clear that women have reached what could potentially be their limit. Even in the 21st century, women are looking for the comfort of men to be able to feel that they can succeed in a world where opportunity has been made. Women are also the leading cause as to why part time jobs have become more of an epidemic. Employers used to be able to find full time employees and run their businesses successfully and now due to the changes, employers tend to discriminate against women if they know they have children or if then know they only want a part time job."
