Feminist articles



When seven year old Charlotte complained of there being too little “girl people” in her toys, Nayla Ziadeh decides to elaborate on the situation all girls have been going through with pink fluff and dolls. She exposes how female role models stay in occupations that do not need physical strength or are separated for their gender and not their achievements. Even so, she explains that there should be more “girl people” and not just super heroines for us to look up to.


Hanna Thomas explains how some feminist are guides by the same ideals of the suffragettes in their times. Women unite for a cause that searches for the good of both sexes. They use important dates from the suffrage movement as key points to not only commemorate their relevance but to make an alliance among women.



Feminism is not merely for educated women who have no children and are leaders of crowds and providers of powerful speeches. Annika Spalding mentions how she felt insecure that she was not portraying the feminism her colleagues wrote or spoke about. She wondered if feminism was reaching other audiences like women who lack resources or do not know the English language but live in the states. Spalding understand it should reach any and all levels of our society regardless of their advancements.
