Women Should Have Enough Freedom and Rights
In most of the ancient decades, women had to strive to secure equal rights and prerogatives as there was gender imparity across most of the societies. One of the reasons as to why women faced gender imparity and lacked freedom to exercise most of their rights were the ancient retrogressive beliefs and practices. Most of the ancient cultures glorified the male gender as they gave minimal consideration the female gender in most of the issues. Some of the women tried to protest and advocate for equality. In often occasions, most of the grievances women aired out ended in vain. The female gender activists fought against inequality through organized boycotts and regular street protests. A good example of the prominent female matriarchs who led the struggles was Abigail Adams. Abigail Adams expressed her desires for all the leaders in power to remedy substandard positioning of the female gender.

The perception of men being stronger than women strikes gender imparity in most of the fields around the globe. Although, people need to be judged by the content of their character and not regarding gender as experienced in most of the global societies.
Another infringement of freedom is that most of the women lack latitude to choose their sexual orientation. Some people are homosexual, and others transgender while others are lesbians. One needs the freedom to choose the sexual orientation most convenient to the person. Although, lesbianism and homosexuality are some of the sexual orientations reprimanded over the recent decades. In the recent years, people through the help of movements such as LGBT movement fight for rights of sexual orientation and one has the freedom to choose the sex status convenient to the person. A person needs to have freedom of voluntary choice in most of the perspectives of life (Banda 24). Sexual orientation is an example of rights that one needs to have freedom and latitude to choose.
