The movement seeking social and political equality for women with men


However, this movement is much stronger in the West, but in developing country like Malaysia, the case is different.

Then came the second wave and so forth seeing women fight for their rights of equality. All the feminist movements back then are centred on the suffrage, and many called it as the ‘first-wave’. The movement on feminism occurred within the time period of the 19th and early 20th centuries throughout the world where women are seeking to get the rights to vote. Now let’s do a little flashback on how it all started, as the majority of the world believed it so. This is the main description of feminism, but there are more than seeking equal opportunities for women than men.

Feminism, by definition, is the advocacy of women’s rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.
