About

Feminism is a socio-political movement that centers around the idea of improving the living standards and cultural opinion of women, both through changing female representation in the media and legislation. Individual feminists and groups act on either the belief of gender equality or the superiority of women as a gender to men.

Origins

Feminism began to develop as a philosophical idea in the early 19th century, encouraged by works such as Soujorner’s “Ain’t I a Woman”[1]. In the 20th century, feminism developed into a social movement through activists in the suffrage movement.

Internet Presence

Modern-day feminism has developed a presence online, especially on sites such as Tumblr.
