SHEENA SANCHEZ -reading reflection 6

in this weeks reading “what’s in a name? on writing the history of feminism. from my understanding of this reading is that historians took it upon themselves to name everything women do in the name of feminism , its true that we been fighting for the longest to have equal rights because for as long as we can remember women been treated even worse than animals, we been beaten , abused, raped and killed for absolutely no other reason than because we women and its unfair to think that these called historians love to try to shame us with that word by saying that everything we do is feminism. but in the other hand because these women had come up with the word feminism a lot of change came with it, women were allowed to do things they never thought they could, they could open banks and go to school and have equal opportunities as men and that’s something we thought we’ll never see happen, any aggression against women is also illegal which is amazing because this was not a big deal almost a century ago. but now women are struggling even more because we are seen as do it all and some women are struggling financially and these are problems that are overlooked because if we fix one thing another collapses , in a way we still gonna be fighting this battle for.years to come because we are seen as beings who are here for the well of others but not for our own , we are here to make others progress but we cannot and when we do we our put hundreds of obstacles in our way.
