Human Living Library: Feminist

“Many people define feminism as a synonym for "man hater" - no! We do not hate men, we need men as well!”

Aruni

Feminist

Here Aruni talks about her life experiences and the impact of prejudice on her life as someone who identifies as Feminist. She highlights that feminism is not about hating men and more about letting people, and in particular women, be themselves without anyone trying to make them line up with stereotypes. 

Feminism is the belief in and advocacy of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes expressed especially through organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests.
