Women's Rights
This topic should be addressed because women everywhere are forced to keep quiet about injustices against them. Women have been fighting for equality, for the longest of time. They have been treated as inferiors and as objects that can be treated to ones liking. They encounter traumatizing experiences in workplaces or in their households. They experience sexism; where women are set an expectation that is impossible for them to accomplish. Through sexism they are discriminated for being a specific gender: female. They become the oppressed, tied down in a cage, prohibited to fly.
