Greetings, it is nice to see everyone joining us today. I am glad to see so many people united under one cause but I feel that many more of you still remain unconvinced. Women are in desperate need of equality, we are being abused civilly and we have no control over it. A few dire things that women MUST have are: the right to vote, equal pay, and right to an abortion without prior male consent.
As long as man existed, women have been thought as the weaker sex. Many stereotypes have plagued women, such as the need to be pretty, apathetic, and submissive. This may otherwise be stated as being a slave to man. In my, and many other women's opinions, this is outrageous. Doesn't it state, very clearly in the constitution, that everyone is created equal? Why should this document not apply to women? Ill tell you why, it's because man wants women to remain their playthings now and for the rest of our time. Are you going to stand for this, women?
The first stab at women's rights was made in 1848 with the first women's conference. The one problem is that, in the 60's, more than 100 years later, women still do not possess this right. When women started the fight for voting freedom, they did not realize the huge amount of work to try to allow women the right to vote. If you are thinking that, after all this time fighting, we should get out rights back, then you are not alone. Many women are tired of their boring housewife roles, and hunger for something more. Those women who do not fully embrace their lives may disagree with my point. For example Philys Shaefer is a woman that wishes women no more rights than common livestock. Only someone who has grown up being heavily medicated should think that about women.
