From Simone De Beauvoir to Betty Friedan,  many feminist writers have educated, inspired, and informed many generations using only their pens. This is how the concept of equality transformed from being just a dream that women did not dare speak of to a reality that we are still fighting for. For ages, women have been taught to abide by certain feminine roles and practices. In return, they have not only suffered from discrimination but also ended up resenting themselves and their peers.
