Identities: Introduction to Feminism
1) Why did Laura Bates start the Everyday Sexism project?
Say as much or as little as you like, use your real name or a pseudonym – it's up to you. By sharing your story you're showing the world that sexism does exist, it is faced by women everyday and it is a valid problem to discuss. Therefore she has given the consumer to express their feeling of what is happening to them on a daily basis.
2) How does the Everyday Sexism project link to the concept of post-feminism? Is feminism still required in western societies? overall from Laura Bates its evident that consumers have been discriminated; she suggest on the Guardian that "Well, this is weird. With any other discrimination, people do not respond by saying: 'Oh, it's not that big a deal'. People don't say: 'Come on, it was only a little bit of racism in the workplace.'" Sexual harassment, if it is serious enough to amount to an assault in the workplace, can be a criminal offence.
This therefore suggest that the debate in question can still be seen in western societies because of the way we are now capable more than ever to post anything privately this in fact means that females have been give false commitments to fit in.
3) Why was new technology essential to the success of the Everyday Sexism project? Before #MeToo movement Laura Bates had been angry for years. the activist started the Everyday project in 2012; this has overall been much more easy to access and share for these individuals with the use of NDM.
4) Will there be a point in the future when the Everyday Sexism project is not required? What is YOUR view on the future of feminism? Overall i do believe that it will become a thing of the past to the fact that the success stories shews the evidence of everything that suggest that vast amount have changed since the begging of the everyday sexism project. Overall as we are now seeing many more women fighting back as they are sick and tired of the "cat calls" therefore women began fighting back and allowed them to build a foundation which is yet to change in the future.
