has reigned supreme.

husband to focus on Women’s rights.
He did not listen, but many of her other ideas helped
shape our nation.

4. In the 1800’s women began to feel the need for
change

earned over to men.
6. Catherine Beecher lost her fiancée in 1822 .
She had then decided that American Women should
stay home and educate their children to have morals.
She began to train women to be teachers. This was
acceptable because it was an extension of
motherhood.
Beecher during this time period wrote some
awesome books about lobbying for women’s
education.
They began to hint at women strengthening America.
7. Once women had all of this education, they began to
question why they were being treated like cattle.
Religious reforms showed them their potential

assemblies.

20. Largely Successful
Only having one major defeat with ERA’s in the
eighties the second wave feminist movement began
to die down.
-We can thank these women for revitalizing
feminism and reshaping culture.
Much of their feminism was based on adopting
masculine practices and denying traditionally
feminine gender roles.

Rape culture
25. Some Vocab I Might Use
Privilege. – How you are not oppressed. Things that skew
you’re outlook because you cannot fully relate to a
minority group. Not a bad thing, but should always be
acknowledge.
Hetero-normative- Assuming that the norm. is to be
heterosexual. Being heterosexual is common NOT what
is “normal”.
Patriarchy- What we live in. A society where power is
predominantly in the hands of those who identify as
male.
Misogyny-All around us. The hatred of women.
Oppressing them. An age old practice.
26. Things You Are Hundred Percent Wrong About
Feminist’s don’t shave their legs!!” – You must know something I
“
don’t, because I shave daily. I shave because I want to, not because
society dictated how I would define beauty. It’s my right, like it is
everyone else’s to control their body.
-”I’m a man, I can’t be a feminist!!!” – WRONG. Do you believe in
equality? Congratulations, you’re a real breathing feminist.
- “Well feminist’s hate men!”- I have guy friend’s, I am not sexist.
Neither are feminists. Rad feminist’s are a small group of people
who may be misandrist, but real feminists, do not like them or
their ideology. We’re fighting sexism, get with the program.
-” I’m girly, this isn’t for me.” – No, dear. It doesn’t matter what
your gender or gender expression is. If you have morals you’re with
us. Someone with short hair, or someone with curly cues are
equally feminists. Do you see a recurring them here?
27. What’s a women?
1. What makes you a women?
A. What’s in your pants?
B. Where you shop?
C. How you dress?
D. Your bodies natural curves?
E. How you identify
28. So, um, what is this Feminism again?
Feminism is the radical notation that women are
people.
- We’re fighting for equality! We aren’t called
“equalists”, because we recognize the war on women. If
we were equalists we would be run by white forty year old
men, and we have enough patriarchy for a life time!
-We are inclusive. If doesn’t matter if you are intersex,
Gay gender queer, African American, over weight, under
weight. We are going to fight for YOUR RIGHTS!
Why?! Because we are decent human beings.
29. BODY POSTIVE!
- We deny beauty standards. YOU CONTROL YOUR
BODY. This means you can make yourself: fat,
pierced, unhealthy, ink’d, modified, natural! You can
do whatever you want to your body, it’s your
business, and no one else’s!
YOUR VALUE IS NOT WHAT’S IN THE MIRROR.
OR THE SCALE.
- No one can tell you what to do with your body. No
matter how you look your value as a human being is
unchanged.
30. PRO-CHOICE!
- A hot topic in the 2012 was Roe vs. Wade, the supreme
court ruling that made abortion legal in our country.
Now, without even bring it religion or science. No one
has the right to use some body else’s body.
This is saying the government has the right to use
regulate a bodily function.
You do not have the right to shame someone on their
decisions.
Women can control their own bodies.
Most people who are anti-choice are against welfare and
child care money!
31. Consent.
I want you to repeat this;” If it’s not yes, it is no.”
“I’m not sure” = no
Silence= no
Drunk or under any substance= No
Being in a relationship does not = consent.
“ A nice guy” does not= consent
Consent is non-negotiable
32. Birth- Control Access
Women deserve the right to be safe. We all deserve
the right to not be vulnerable.
If you want teen pregnancy rates to go down, or
abortion rights, we can easily prevent this.
More children, equals more resources being used.
Think about this the, what is safer, unloading the
gun or getting shot with a bullet proof vest?

33. Slut- Shaming Quiz
What do you call a girl who “sleeps around”?
What causes rape?
How many people does a girl have to be slept with to
be considered a “slut”?
34. The answer is
1. Her name
2. Rapists
3. There is no answer to this question. This is an
unacceptable word that contributes to rape culture.
What we learned: Don’t call someone a slut. It’s a
word used to demean or take value away from girl’s
right to control their own body. This is not ever
attributed to men.
35. Legitimate Rape
If she say’s no. It is legitimate rape. Republican,
Todd Akin tried to deny any rape that has happened
that resulted in pregnancy.
Science, which unlike his mental state can actually
cannot be disputed, is that sperm + egg = fetus.
A potential VPOTUS- Paul Ryan approved of Akin’s
findings.
THIS WAS 2012.
37. CAT- CALLING
Okay, ladies. Please raise your hand if you have ever
walked down the street and had someone yell out the
window a crude comment.
Now boys.
Now girl’s please raise your hand if a man has ever
made a comment about your physical appearance
that has sexualized you and made you
uncomfortable.
Boys vice versa
This is cat-calling. This contributes to rape culture
and this is not okay.
39. Wait, didn’t we just learn about what past
feminist’s accomplishments? Why do we still
need this
The cold hard facts:
1. Women are fetishized and overly sexualized by media.
2. The word for female genitalia is not allowed to be said in congress.
3. Sexism and oppression are still rampant in our culture.
4.For every dollar a man makes a women makes 77 cents.
5. In 2013, “ Kitchen” and “ Rape” jokes are still being made.
6. 1 in 3 women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime.
7. Out of every one hundred rapes, only six rapists will ever spend a day behind bars.
8.7 million American women have eating disorders.
9. The beauty industry make 160 billion dollars a year off demeaning women.
10. 1 percent of fortune five hundred companies ceo’s are women
11. People still teach raped, not do not rape.
THESE ARE THE BASICS
41. Women vs. Men in video games
Women are often given skimpy outfits so they can be
sexualize for a type of fan service. I will not deny the
power of a riot grrl, but when I’m going into battle a
mini skirt wouldn’t help me as much as a shield.
Even worse perhaps is the stigma given to female
gamers. So many girls are taught that women can’t
play video game. Girl’s that do play are often called
“fake.” They have to work twice as hard to secure this
position.
43. Gendering of Toys and How We are Raised
Boy’s raise your hand if you’ve ever been insulted by
being called a girl?
The truth is the “traditional” female gender role is
portrayed as weak.
Boy’s name some toy’s you had as a child?
Girl’s name some toy’s you had as child?
Can we see the differences?
If the traditional masculine gender role was so
strong, why would a brush with feminity wipe it out
completely?
46. How things are sold using gender.
Women: You’re fat, ugly, and dumpy. Do you ever
want your prince charming to come and own you?
Better buy this product, or else you’ll always be
worthless. By the way why do you not look like an
underweight Caucasian blonde with implants who
was photo shopped?
Men: Be tough. BE cool. NINJAS. Action hero.
Heterosexual. Babes.
47. The Violence Against Women Act
This was first passed in 1994 and allocated 1.6 billion
dollars to investigate domestic violence and sexual
assault cases against women.
What this meant in 2013, Rape would go down,
women would be protected, crack down on
stalking(which attacks 50 percent of women),holding
rapists accountable.
Signed Thursday by POTUS.
49. Racism and Handicaps
If you say “ I do not see race.” Then you do not get a
gold medal. Actually you get an eye roll.
Understanding people have different cultures and
recognizing them and excepting them is anti-racism.
Abolish hate.
Stigmatizing handicaps is wrong. A person in a
wheel chair is a person in a wheel chair. This does
not compromise their value. We celebrate their
differences.
50. Who are the leaders of our modern feminist
movement?
51. What we learned
Keep your rosaries out of people rosaries.
Consent= a must
Slut-shaming= rape culture= Don’t do it.
Gender roles= Bull crap.
Women= unrepresented
Feminism= Inclusive equality. One for all and all for one.
Your body, your choice. Every body type is equal. Do not objectify
them, do not fetishize them.
People are not property.
Jokes do not happen in a vacuum.
Our society is a patriarchy.
Not your anatomy, no decision. Can’t say the word can’t vote on it.
We need a radical revolution. Who’s responsible for this, You.
52. How can I help the cause?
Be a decent human being: respect people,
acknowledge and respect differences, refuse to be
ignorant to hot topics, stand up for the minority, and
believe firmly in equality.
