Hi Amy!


My name is Yngrid and I'm from Slovakia. I have homework about feminism, but I don't know what to write about because I don't know anything about this question.

Can you help me?

Yngrid

 

Yngrid --

I don't know where to start. It's such a broad question -- do you want to do something historical or something happening today?

Perhaps you can look at the status of women in your country? Are there women in elected offices? Are women attending higher education at the same rates as men? Is family violence a big issue in your country? What about in your school -- are there sports teams for boys and girls? Do you think that they are treated the same? Are girls teased for some things and boys for others?

These are the types of questions to be asking yourself.

I hope that helps,

-- Amy
