Why I am a feminist

feminism is ....
relating to women

belief in the need to secure rights and opportunities for women equal to those of men, or a commitment to securing these.

movement for women :
the movement committed to securing and defending rights and opportunities for women that are equal to those of men

I definitely think the rights of women are challenged in today’s society. Today women around the world, especially in third world countries are not treated in the same respect as men. I believe that women are just as capable as men but our society and our culture divert us from that fact. I am a feminist because I believe in equal rights for women.
