In opposition to the pressure and dominance of men, a great movement named “feminism” emerged. This movement’s aim was establishing and defending equal political, economic, and social rights and equal opportunities for women. When it emerged, it looked so attractive to women that were harmed by sexism and gender roles. Their only aim was creating equal genders in every field.
Before this movement, women were being hold by customs; customs were telling what a woman should do, what her mission in the society is etc. After this movement, media have been used. A beauty definition was created by media thereby, created by men. This beauty myth were telling women should not eat so much, they should be more slim than ever before and with models were used in media, women were told that they should be like models.
It can look as a normal situation. However, all of these media and models etc. used for shift women’s attention and finally making women powerless.
I think these struggles are needless. If we live together in this world, everyone should be equal and should have same rights.
