It’s not just that she was a women that impressed me but her outward denial to conform to a world that oppressed her and women all across Europe based on sex.

Through these reasons and preservations, Christine De Pizan merits more than a three quarter page in a history of rhetoric
Although the author gives some credibly evidence but the author fails to mention is that this example might be only a few woman get high –stress or they can not concentrate so that lead to some accidents happening. Moreover, in recent day, woman often works some jobs and getting high positions such as Doctor, engineer, and Psychologists so if they get high – stress how women can do this jobs.

Aunt Alexandra was horrified with the fact that Scout did not live up to the standards society had of women. She believed Scout should be wearing dresses, not running around wild like a boy. To further outstretch this topic of stereotypes, an article published in August 2014 by The New York Times stresses the phrase 'throw like a girl' and the hidden aspects of it. On the second page of the article, the author speaks of stereotypes of the female community. "Such restriction, constriction, and fragmentation can be observed in many everyday movements, including the way a woman walks, sits, and carries books.
Furthermore, these groups also had the potential of producing social activists. Unfortunately, although many women attended the C-R groups, they were unwilling to participate actively in the social movement to challenge the patriarchal society (Buechler 72-3). Through this discussion, Buechler raises the interesting point that a raised consciousness does not equate with a desire to transform society. Furthermore, the unwillingness of these women to participate in social activism illuminates the differences that divide women in their perceptions of feminism. For these women, their heightened consciousness that has enabled them to transform various aspects of their personal lives may be sufficient.
Political Intersectionality is described as a categorization conflict that women of color experience particularly in racism and sexism issues.

The tyranny civilians felt was surreal. In “Aint I a Woman”, Sojourner Truth anxiously talked about how and why African-American women did not have the same rights as white men had and why there was no equality between them. Bell Hooks’, “Talking Back” also shares significance with what Truth had to express. Hooks conveys that even though women have the right to speak, they are not being listened to and what they say does not make a difference in the matter. Thoreau’s “Resistance to Civil Government”, has many similarities with Martin Luther King Junior’s letter.
Continuously in literature women take a backseat to the men; women are often portrayed to be incapable of fulfilling the roles “intended” for men by society. Usually in these stories women are illustrated as weaker or inferior to their male counterparts. Often characterized as helpless or as servant to the man, manipulative and untrustworthy, very rarely do we see woman in charge woman and with power like Clytemnestra in Agamemnon or women who are educating the man for a change like we see Shahrazad do with the many woman of her stories in The Thousand and One Nights. In both stories the doing of both women are seen as negative when actually they are trying to fight so that one day woman can be treated equal to men. Agamemnon takes place
For Women in America, Equality is Still an Illusion In her article, "For Women in America, Equality is Still an Illusion", Jessica Valenti subject matter is to describe the discrepancies between what is perceived as gender equality to what is really occurring in America in hopes of ending the mistreatment and injustices of women.

She uses selection of detail to show the hardships of women not only in America, but in other countries as well. Valenti provides many statistics of abuse against women here in the United States as well as examples of evidence for the mistreatment of women.
In addition, the literature reports several factors explaining this situation. These include the difficulty for women to reconcile work and family (Lips, 2006), the lack of opportunities for women to gain the work experience they need to progress hierarchically (Bell, McLaughlin & Sequeira, 2002), the discriminatory stereotypes in the workplace, such as the idea of less women's competence (Lips 2006, Carli 2001, Eagly & Karau 2002, Carli & Eagly 2001), or the argument of a typically feminine social-emotional leadership style (Rosener, 1990), which does not fit the predominantly masculine conception of organizational cultures (Landry,
