Abstract

The woman has overcome many problems, obstacles and barriers to become an important member of society. In the past, women had no rights at all; they were isolated, neglected and abused by men. With the emergence of feminism, the profile and image of women has changed completely and from a doll in the hands of a man, she has become a queen, president, artist and teacher. This article examines the wishes, dreams and ability of women to change their position in society not only as daughter, wife or mother, but as normal citizens with regular rights and duties. Feminist efforts have been effective in many ways and have brought about a tremendous change in the position and role of women. They succeeded in removing the majority, if not all stereotypical images and giving it more importance in society by giving it political, social and economic rights.
