Talk:History of feminism

Removed a confusing passage of little importance

I removed the following passage (which I have, evenso, considerably cleaned up) from the terminology paragraph under the "Post-war and second wave" heading:

(This terminology is not completely uniform among all authors. T.Z. Lavine maintains that the "First wave" in the United States was the Women's Rights Movement from the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention to the onset of the American Civil War in 1861; the "Second wave," or Woman Suffrage Movement, from the founding of the National American Woman Suffrage Association in 1890 to 1924 after the amendment to grant the vote was ratified; the "Third wave," the "Women's Movement," from 1964.)

I removed it because it only confuses an already very garbled article, and because the source seems obscure, and because the info, if it belongs in Wikipedia at all, belongs in a section or article that focuses on the U.S. All in all, I personally think Wikipedia can probably live without it.

3rd century BCE women fighting for their rights

"The earliest evidence of a display that would today be called feminist came in ancient Rome during the 3rd century BCE, when a group of women barricaded the Forum in an attempt to force consul Marcus Porcius Cato to repeal laws that limited women’s use of expensive goods. " https://www.britannica.com/story/feminism-from-ancient-rome-to-the-womens-march

Could it be added to the protofeminism section ? ProudWatermelon (talk) 03:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Feminism's Popularity Over Time

I came here to find if there was any information (possibly a graph) that shows how Feminism has progressed in popularity over time. Sadly, it seems to be entirely missing. 87.208.131.149 (talk) 12:40, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
