According to one United Nations estimate, 113 to 200 million women are “demographically missing” from the world today. That is to say, there should be 113 to 200 million more women walking the earth, who aren’t. By that same estimate, 1.5 to 3 million women and girls lose their lives every year because of gender-based neglect or gender-based violence and Sexual Violence in Conflict.
We can point a finger at poverty. But poverty alone does not result in these girls and women’s deaths and suffering; the blame also falls on the social system and attitudes of the societies.
India alone accounts for more than 50 million of the women who are “missing” due to female foeticide - the sex-selective abortion of girls, dowry death, gender-based neglect and all forms of violence against women.
The decline in the sex ratio and the millions of Missing Women are indicators of the feudal patriarchal resurgence. Violence against women has gone public – whether it is dowry murders, the practice of female genital mutilation, honour killings, sex selective abortions or death sentences awarded to young lovers from different communities by caste councils, rapes and killings in communal and caste violence, it is only women’s and human rights groups who are protesting – the public and institutional response to these trends is very minimal. Most of the values are insufficiently imagined and fundamentally flawed.
More than two-thirds of the women’s populations don’t have access to the financial system. Poor women are not considered credit worthy. Every human being should have the “right to credit” because if people have money, they can change their lives. It is true for women. Nearly half the world’s population live in poverty, 70% are women.

Feminism is a range of political movements, ideologies, and social movements that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve political, economic, personal, and social rights for women that are equal to those of men.[1][2] This includes seeking to establish equal opportunities for women in education and employment. Feminists typically advocate or support the rights and equality of women.

Women in Civil Resistance - Dr. Mary King & Dr. Anne-Marie Codur (FSI2013)NonviolentConflict
Most women’s activism has historically been nonviolent direct action, which has helped develop the technique of civil resistance. Movements for abolition of slavery and women’s suffrage made common cause in the nineteenth century. Women’s activism has been the galvanizing force in several civil-resistance movements, for example, the Montgomery bus boycott (1955–1956) that launched the U.S. civil rights movement was sparked by JoAnne Robinson and the city’s black women’s political council.
Women can sometimes exploit traditional political space as wives, mothers and nurturers, as did German gentile women married to Jewish men, who in 1943 saved their husbands through street protests in Berlin. Las Madres de la Plaza de Mayo dared to march weekly in Argentina’s capital, 1977–1983, seeking acknowledgment that their children had been “disappeared” by the military generals. Their audacious demonstrations created the dynamic that would lead to the fall of the regime. Women have sometimes been able to accomplish what their male peers could not, as with the Palestinian women who led popular committees in the 1987 intifada. Israeli women’s activism in the Israeli “Four Mothers Movement” exerted such pressure on the Israeli government that the IDF withdrew from Lebanon in 2000.
The significance of women’s leadership, decision-making, strategy, organization, communications, networking, and tactics needs to be more systemically surveyed and acknowledged, as their role is critical in the success of any movement of civil resistance.

Havas Group Prosumer Report - The Future is FeMaleHavas Media
Gender is a hot-button issue in 2017, with gender-related controversies multiplying around the world. But will there come a time when gender is regarded as no more important than a person’s height, handedness, or hair color? Based on the findings of Havas Group’s recent survey of more than 12,000 people in 32 countries and the accompanying “The Future Is FeMale” report, a nongendered future may be in the cards.
The 32-nation survey, commissioned by the Havas Group and fielded by Market Probe International, sought to measure how far gender equality has come in an era when women in most parts of the world are able to do things once considered the province of men, including work outside the home, earn high school and college degrees, vote, own property, and hold elected office.

What is feminism? Ask ten people this question and you might get ten different answers. It’s not that I claim to have the one right answer but rather that I do have one I have settled on and I am pleased to share it with Ragged members.
My generation of women has seen enormous changes in our lives. I hardly recognise myself as the young woman who always sat quietly in one corner or another. To me, that is proof of feminism as an agent of personal growth and empowerment; one more reason to share what I know about it.
Feminism to me is a political sisterhood because it aims to challenge the dominant social force generally known as patriarchy. Some people get very precise and define it as capitalist patriarchy or imperialist capitalist patriarchy, even imperialist patriarchal capitalism. I suppose one’s view is always determined by where one stands.

LiisBeth Presents: What is Feminism? A Primer for Modern Times
1. When everything seems to be
going against you, remember
that the airplane takes off
against the wind, not with it.
W H A T I S F E M I N I S M ?
A P R I M E R F O R M O D E R N T I M E S
PRESENTS
2. Feminism is a long-running,
diverse but worldwide
movement which advocates
for social, political, and
economic gender justice,
equity and equality.
#1
What is Feminism?
3. Biology is one thing, but
gender identity is another.
Gender traits and role
differences assigned to men
and women are socially
constructed.
#2
What is Gender?
5. History has shown we can learn lot
about power and better
understand how to create
equitable societies by applying a
gender specific lens to political,
economic, cultural and social
systems.
#3
Feminism Is A Powerful
Analytical Tool
6. Feminism is not something you wear or buy.
That's called consumerism. Leveraging
feminist ideas to sell products and services is
called marketplace feminism.
Advocating for the right for all to life as you
choose feels great, regardless of sex, gender
or sexuality, but it's called individualism.
A connected, action-oriented, multi-faceted,
global movement that works at the political,
cultural, social and economic systems levels
to advance gender justice everywhere-
that's our feminism.
#4
Feminism is a Movement
7. Feminism, Like Other Movements, Has
its Factions and Branches.
The Goal is Shared, but not all are in
Agreement on How to Get There.
8. Assertions and ideas about women's role in
society are as old as humankind. But the
idea that gender equality and equity
mattered didn't become named feminism
until the 1800's.
Feminism as an ideology rose over time to
counter deeply held beliefs that women's
physical, moral and intellectual inferiority
justified patriarchal laws, like who gets to
own property, inherit wealth, lead spiritually,
participate in the economy (and how),
vote, etc.
#5
Feminism Is Not New
9. Evidence shows women, girls, trans and gender
queer people who make up 55% of the world's
population are systemically marginalized (due to
cultural beliefs, social norms, power structures,
laws etc.) in areas like the economy, health,
education and the opportunity lead.
Women are held back from participating equally
in humanity's political, social and economic
conversations which determine our day to day
collective experience and future.
#6
Feminism Benefits Everyone, but Why
Does Feminist Work Tend Focus Those
Who Identify as Women? ?
10. Today's feminists are highly conscious of the
role that white privilege and outdated
female essentialist narratives plays in
determining opportunity.
Research says there is no universal women's
experience or set of innate "woman" traits
(like born to excel at collaboration).
Lived experience shaped by power
structures and social norms heavily
influence both.
#7
Feminism, Privilege & Essentialism
11. Men and male identified people can, and
should be feminists too.
In fact, their numbers are growing.
While all movements are multifaceted and
have their extremists, mainstream feminism
was never anti-men or anti-male. It is,
however, critical of prevailing interconnected
privileged power structures (the patriarchy)
and resultant reinforced social norms which
continue to privilege masculinity and males
over femininity and females as well as white,
cis-gender persons.
#8
Feminism & Men
12. Yes, there are and always have been anti-
feminists (women and men). And these groups
still exist today.
Anti-feminists fought against giving women the
right to vote in the early 1900's (because it would
"destabliize the home". Anti-feminist in the
1970's fought (and won) against the Equal Rights
Amendment.
Anti-feminists have very different views of the role
women should play in society. Their position is
often based on religious teachings, and it often
conflicts with the idea of gender equity.
#9
Anti-Feminism
13. #10
Humanism and Egalitariansim?
Important ideas but not substitutes for feminism.
Humanism started in 1400 as a way to attach
importance to humans rather than to a divine
being. It focuses on defining what it meant to live
a moral life, and how to live one.
Egalitarians believe everyone should be treated
equally, So do feminists. But feminists go one step
further and also fight for equity and gender
justice.
Feminism helps achieve egalitarianism. But as a
ideology, and in origin, they are not the same.
14. #11
Equality versus Equity?
Equity and equality are two strategies we can use
in an effort to produce fairness.
Equity is giving everyone what they need to be
successful. Equality is treating everyone the same.
Equality aims to promote fairness, but it can only
work if everyone starts from the same place and
needs the same help.
Equity appears unfair, but it actively moves
everyone closer to success by determining and
offering solutions to what's required to “level the
playing field.”
15. #12
Does Feminism Need To Be
Re-Branded?
Beware of those who seek to re-brand a perfectly
good name for a movement with a long history-
that some have died for.
Is the problem the movement? Or people's
understanding of the movement?
Feminism is the most INCLUSIVE word we have
for those interested in achieving gender justice,
equity and equality. It also has a long and
venerable history as a field of research and
inquiry.
It does not need to be re-branded. Just better
understood.
16. #13
Why Do So Many Successful
Women Role Models, Reject or
Disavow Feminism?
Likely because they have only a superficial,
largely male owned/led corporate media
based perception of it. They may not have
kept up with movement from reliable,
authoritative sources working at the core.
Feminism, like many large scale human rights
related movements whose work is still
undone, has evolved, matured, and deepened
with the times.
17. #14
We Have Achieved So Much--Do
We Still Need Feminism?
YES! CONSIDERING:
It's 2017. We now have a misogynist elected as President of
the United States?
Gender inequality globally costs us trillions!
After decades of programming to help women become
empowered or "lean in" women STILL continue to be
underrepresented, unequally paid, and professionally
penalized for becoming mothers in many industries and
other domains. Time to change the system--not the woman.
We still have countries that either systemically, socially or
culturally deny girls access to education. Even where rights
have been won, they can easily be lost. The reality is, there
are always new challenges that call for feminist intervention.
19. #15
How Can I Up My Feminist Game?
Read or re-read authoritative new and classic books on
feminism.
Use your Voice. Call out truth to power.
Don't pay to attend conferences where speaker line up is
not acceptably diverse or inclusive.
Join a local feminist group, subscribe to a magazine,
attend feminist salons, feminist film screenings--point is to
get out there and engage in the conversation with other
humans. Learning is a social process.
Next time you are asked to speak about your career
success, or achievements, take just 30 seconds to
acknowledge all the feminists who fought/died for equal
rights and gender equity, so you could stand at the
podium today.
20. #16
What is a Feminist Entrepreneur?
Feminist entrepreneurs are those who found
ventures whose products and/or services are
expressly designed to better the lives of women,
girls and other gender-identity oppressed people
and/or
business owners who aspire to operate their
existing venture aligned with feminist values and
principles which include a commitment to
operational equity, diversity, equality, generativity,
agency, whole humanness, transparency, and
environmental sustainability.
Some examples: Founders of Luna Pads,
Elleinvest, SheEO, Fresh Collective, Bitch Media,
G(irls)20, Ladies Learning Code.
21. #17
What is Entrepreneurial Feminism?
Entrepreneurial feminism is both a movement
and a practice. which developed from social
feminism, a theory that explains how feminist
values are enacted through the venture creation
process to improve the position of women in
society.
Coined by Barbara Orser and Catherine Elliott,
entrepreneurial feminists enter commercial
markets to create wealth and social change,
based on feminist values and principles such as
gender equity, social justice, interdependence,
generativity, social inclusion, responsible finance,
financial sustainability, governance transparency,
and care for people and planet.
