Feminist movement

The feminist movement refers to social but primarily political activities designed to promote social changes that allow full equality and parity between women and men in all areas of life. The aim of the feminist movement is to uncover and challenge the unequal status of women and men and to seek opportunities and effective means for eliminating Gender inequality and Gender stereotypes as causes of inequality. Part of the feminist movement is to point out social models, constructs and mechanisms that cause, maintain and affirm Gender inequality in society.
