ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"We Should All Be Feminists" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is an essay that explores the concept of feminism in the 21st century. The author uses personal anecdotes and observations to dissect societal attitudes toward gender roles and expectations. Adichie addresses the negative stereotypes associated with the word feminist and reclaims it as a term for anyone who believes in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes. The book examines issues, such as the limitations imposed by traditional masculinity, the pressure on women to be likable, and the cultural practices that perpetuate gender inequality. Ultimately, it argues for a world where individuals are judged by their merits rather than their gender.
