Women have always been at the forefront of progressive movements. Women can be depended on when you need bodies in the streets for women's rights and human rights.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think the Women's movement has had a major impact on everybody's lives in our nation and in the world as a whole.
Women have a lot to say about how to advance women's rights, and governments need to learn from that, listen to the movement and respond.
I have come to understand that in order to effectively advance women's rights, we need to galvanize a global women's movement.
The women's movement is just a symptom of basic changes in the economy that are favoring women.
Feminism is the best movement that's happened in the 21st century, and it benefits everyone.
I believe and support the feminist movement, but I am not generally interested in considering women's rights in relation to equality with men, or in a competition with men, but rather within their own rights and feminine space.
The women's movement is taking a different form right now, and it is because it has been so effective and so successful that there's a huge counter movement to try to stop it, to try to divide women from one another, to try to almost foment divisiveness.
For women in, say, Alabama, 'feminism' is a dirty word. They would never march in the streets. But although they don't think of themselves as the beneficiaries of feminism, they are.
Women had a rights movement where they fought for changes. Men... don't band together in quite that way. It happens not in such a public-cascade way as in a house-to-house way.
I love the women's movement, and I never thought of it as belonging to any particular segment of the population.
