Women's liberation movement
branch of radical feminist thought
The Women's liberation movement is a social movement that started in the 1960s. It is a form of radical feminism. Followers of the movement say that men and women should have the same rights.
Important issues on the agenda are:
- Women's suffrage - women should have the right to vote in elections. A woman should also have the option of being a candidate in an election.
- Gender equality - women and men are equal, no sex or gender is better than the other.
- Gender roles should be a thing of the past.
