WHAT IS FEMINISM?
Feminism is a collaboration of
movements and ideologies
aimed at defining equal rights
for women [fn.1].
FIRST WAVE
FEMINISM
There are three waves of feminism throughout history. The first wave
of feminism was formed in the late 1800s, also known as the
Suffragette movement. In the beginning of feminism these women
stood up for womens vote, as they wanted to be equal with men and
have the same rights to voting [fn.2].
SECOND WAVE
FEMINISM
THIRD WAVE
FEMINISM
The third wave of feminism was born in the early 90s through to
today. This wave involves ideologies focusing on equality for gay and
non-white women [fn.4]. Women in this wave want to abolish the
typical stereotypes for women but also, gender role expectations and
the queer theory [fn.5].

This is a perfect film that comes into contact with women of different
ages from Wadjda herself to her mother- as her mother is too
distracted by trying to make her husband happy by getting him a
second wife; where is the mothers happiness?
