Thesis On Gender Equality

Margaret Sanger By: Shannon Keel Margaret Sanger once said that "no woman can call herself free who does not own and control her own body.” Margaret Sanger was widely regarded as the founder of the modern birth control movement. For her, birth control was vital in the fight for women’s equality. Sadly, that fight is still valid today.

Eleanor Roosevelt fights for “equal pay for women in the industry / she fought against racial and religious prejudice / her example marked an important step in making the rights of blacks a matter of national priority.” (Jacobs 94). With this in mind, Eleanor wants everyone to be equal. She knows everyone had the power but she was strong enough and brave so she did it. UNICEF also stands for human rights therefore Roosevelt would be a great advocate for this position.

There are three basic guidelines to Title IX that include equal amount of sport options, equal benefits and assistance, and finally equal distribution of scholarship money involving athletics ("The Battle For Gender Equity In Athletics In Colleges and Universities"). The National Women’s Society states these guidelines and exclaims the results have indeed benefitted women in receiving more scholarships and creating more opportunity. This proves the intentions of Title IX; it highlights what issues need to be addressed and corrected. It becomes obvious that allocating resources, like scholarships, equally is a major step in the right direction. Especially when one realizes the major gap that already exists.

The way she uses her tone, and her words will be remembered for along time. She is inspirational, passionate, caring, and she cares for people's well being. They could be white, black, asian, or hispanic and she would want equal rights for everyone. Freedom is a right not a privilege, use freedom

Her establishment of the organization guided the futures of women of this time as well as their posterity. This accomplishment demonstrates her passionate nature of taking initiative and role as a leader in history. In addition, Sanger “Succeeded in revising the Comstock Act’s classification of birth control as obscenity in federal court,” in 1936 (Commire, ed., 1994). Any case in court now would favor on the woman’s side when determining the fate of her and her family. Sanger’s strong belief that birth control is a right translated into her determination to revise the court’s guidelines.

The Prime Directive In the novel Anthem by Ayn Rand the society that she portrays lives under one injunction, or prime directive, for everyone to be equal. There are numerous rules and controls instituted to help keep the citizens’ in order and while some of them seem to be beneficial, others are constricting the basic rights that every person should have. The one thing that all of the rules do share in common is the restriction of a person's freedom, individuality, and life in general. Ayn Rand knew that by writing this novel, it would spark many conflicting views about equality and liberty in today's world.

The American Civil Rights movement was started to give all Americans, regardless of their race or gender, a chance to vote and live equally. Many men and woman, black and white, fought for this civil rights reform, putting their lives at risk. Lucretia Mott was a brave white women who gave her all to the women’s and colored cause for civil rights. Lucretia Mott had strong opinions on civil rights. Mott was a strong women’s rights activist and abolitionist.

By emulating the Declaration of Independence and refusing to alter the etymology of the concurrent desires held by both women’s rights activists and the founding fathers throughout our history, Stanton makes us aware of the painful omission women endured from the very dreams that had been procured by men before them. Securing freedom and equality is still an issue we see today, and within this fight the documents drafted to ensure our rights have always been under

‘What we claim for ourselves we claim for every woman!’” (Kidd 331). Kidd portrays Sarah as someone who was adamant in defending her right to speak her mind. Through her actions and speeches in Kidd’s novel, Sarah showed that women had the same rights and duties as men and should be able allowed to participate in the abolition

Women have been fighting for equality since the beginning of time and the women during World War II were like pioneers who helped women make a huge step in the direction for equality. Some believe that the roles of women in World War II brought only negative issues; however, the roles of women changed so immensely during World War II and made many positive contributions to women 's fight for Equality. Some of the roles of women in World War II are the following: the role of working, the role of a mother, the gender roles, the patriotic role, the military roles, and the role of propaganda. Before the war women were thought as only having the capacity to achieve the status of a homemaker or housewife, but World War II changed that whole idea

The utilitarian concentrates on the consequences of abortion. The pro-choice utilitarian will seek justice for all the illegal and unsanitary abortions that will occur, while the pro-life will demand for rights of the unborn children. The deontological perspective deals mainly with the issue of rights. For example, the pro-life deontologist will defend the fetus’s life and rights while the pro-choice deontologist will claim that the woman’s right overcome the rights of the

The Handmaid’s Tale has been very much part of the feminist movement and is always insisting on finding out information on individual perspectives. It examines traditional attitudes that are embedded on thinking that religious rights are particularly threatening. It dares to name an enemy, and if that person is a female, the enemy could have everyone you have ever loved. The novel is a tragic story, where a woman is successful in one way or another oppressed, by means of sexual violence, knowledge, and power. However, today 's government and people around the world believe that women should and are able to encourage their highest potential.

Social differences will eventually be blurred by the continuous improvement of the general welfare of all American citizens. I envision a nation enlivened by faith, one that leads the world with religious freedom. America’s protection and cherishment of all types of beliefs will enforce a wide array of values that positively promote the country’s morale and acceptance of diversity. The integration of various religions would make a hopeful nation blessed by
