Furthermore, women’s rights are about being female than being equal with men. In Kurdistan, the laws says that women can do whatever men can.

For the span of all human history woman hasn’t had choice, even her wedding vows were to honor and obey her husband. She was only defined as a good woman had she been properly obedient in servitude to her husband and before marriage to her father. Women only wore dresses, didn’t work for a living, nor had any responsibility other than to provide sons for her husband. With the rise of democratic leaning men choice has been incrementally given to women. The choice to rise up and fight back against a society determined to keep women submissive and taciturn hasn’t been available to women of the past.

Beyoncé proclaims to the world that she is a modern day feminist in her song “Flawless”, which, according to her is: “the person who believes in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes” Her definition of a feminist is correct as women should be able to do whatever they want to do assuming that they want to do it, and that they can do it. Not all women want to do things such as join the workforce, compete athletically or go to war. Just because men have the right to do these things does not mean that it is a good right to have. Most believe that this is a misnomer of feminism, and is anti femininity because it encourages women to abandon their femininity and instead adopt masculinity by mimicking what men do.
Looking the perspectives from each side should be appropriate, for the common opposition that they face. Reitman argues that both relativists and feminists see themselves as the minority in pursuing their interest, and often both are either antagonized or ridiculed when facing the majority (patriarchic hegemony for feminism and western powers for relativists) in the international community, and also the values that they share are fundamentally similar, as a form for the respecting differences, whether if it’s religion, culture, or sex. Reitman took a perspective of feminism personally, and from an outsider perspective, Reitman believes, although speaking naively, that relativists can reach a comprise in understanding between with feminism, so long as the concept of how women of the culture receives more empowerment in their own society, so much as a give-and-take situation. And if they do so, relativists would have the chance to seek endorsement from feminists in the international society, in order to maintain their way of life, without being antagonized or culturally imperialized by the western

Laura Bush even goes as far as saying that Afghan women were rejoicing at their new found freedom from the veil. The problem here is, Americans never asked or considered how this women may feel about their burqas or cover. The United States and people like Laura Bush took it upon themselves to make Muslim women seem as though they needed saving from their cover and yet, these women never even asked for that. The power of the burqa in this situation is viewed as oppression because the United States made it an object that means these women have less power not only in their country, but as “people who needed saving” by the United
She saw that women were conditioned to believe there was nothing wrong with their life and as such “they had to be made aware of how they were being shackled [by society], and roused to mutiny” (Shaw 38) to gain any rights. Planned Parenthood was a major step in the right direction for the Women’s Rights movement, removing it and its services that gave women so much freedom would destroy any progress
It was because of this unfair treatment and restrictions, that women started to really question what it meant to be a women. This all lead to the Suffrage Movement. Necessary because it would make it illegal for any citizen, regardless of gender to be denied the right to vote. Not only this but, it granted that “All men and women are created equal,” and therefore have constitutional rights.
This is one of the resolutions I most agree with because women should be able to vote. Gender shouldn’t be an implication to deny someone’s power to vote. Another resolution I agree with is the one which states,”All laws which prevent women from occupying such a station in society as her conscience shall dictate, or which place her in a position to that inferior of men, are contrary to the great precept of nature.” What this means is that any laws that stop women from reaching their full potential or make them more inferior than men are against principle. Without a doubt this is what women are and should be entitled to.
