Summary

Feminism means to me that we all females are given the opportunities to have equal rights. It's about respecting diverse women's experiences,identities knowledge, strengths and to empower all women to realise their full rights. It's about learning and understanding the ways that inequality affect women and men and remembering that we all in this together. I think that the word feminism means who you are being the women that you are without fears of judgment and to be successful in the way you want to be. Also it's about doing what you want to do in life or fighting for what not waiting for others to give you what you need. There are still obstacles for women doing for what it takes them to be able to do what thye put their minds to. Feminism holds the position that societies prioritize the male point of view and that women are treated unjustly in these societies. I do consider myself feminist because I have rights to be able to stand up for myself as well as being able to prove a point depending on the topic given.We all women have the rights to defend ourself to whatever situation which then makes us all women to becomer stronger to support each other to prove points. Sometimes womens don't get there voices or rights heard because in some cases men can be able to over power which then some men think that us women don't have the same rights as men do.

Adichie defines feminism as a problem because as us women we are describes has a house wife meaning that we are suppose to what womens would normally do. Adichie shows that both men and women are able to do things but sometimes men do the things better compare to a women that really doesn't have experience. She says that "Gender is not an easy conversations to have. For both men and women to bring up gender sometimes encountres almost immediate resistance". This shows that gender is made up both men and women which shows that are different and that the type of people should be able to do what one person is able to complete. I think that Adichie is trying to show that the word gender means that men and women are different but they both should also have the same rights because women can be better compare to men since women are stronger to be complete whatever type of task or case that can be assign. She included that women should just stick to what all women should do like a house wife and let men take care the rest of the job which is being able to provide things for a family. A women should be able to also have the same rights as men which shows that women are determine to provide the point that they can do anything.
