What do you understand the liberated woman to be?

A liberated woman is a woman that feels naturally to make her own decisions and independently choose what she prefers in life. An independent woman can have kids or don’t have or don’t have them for a career. AN independent woman can decide about rules at home and responsibilities; she is equally with her partner ( men or a woman) building her family the way she thinks is good and safe. A liberal woman fights for her happiness and has any types of  friends she wants, risks new jobs,choses her life based of what she thinks is good, and makes decisions she wnats. 

How might the liberated woman be important for women’s liberation?

The liberated woman builds a new society and a new structure showing that the old rules aren’t the only ones. She can be an example for kids or an abused woman or gay people. She is showing new possibilities, and she is walking proof that a new, revised structure is a stronger part of the world. 

How do these pieces show that “the personal is political”?

When reading the articles” The Myth of the Vaginal Orgasm” and “The Politics of Housework,” we can clearly see how one’s personal decision affects the whole population. OWmans body and desires are controlled, her perception of work and family and her role in society. When one man wants a woman at home to cook and clean, he puts his sand grain in a desert of people like him. When men have the privilege to decide about women’s bodies, they control abortion rights and limit women’s freedom. Whoman must be personal and change the law around the-they should create, write, protest and more! When men have control at home, women cant decide and realize him without seeing more possibilities. Her children might be raised this way as well if they don’t have opportunities to see more. So we need to teach our kids to study, travel and help them understand what possibilities they have so they can improve the word
