"The Subjection of Women" by John Stuart Mill is a thought-provoking text that questions why women are treated as less than men under the law and in society. The author kicks off his discussion explaining that society's reasons for keeping women down aren't based on logic, but on old habits and feelings. He points out that this unfair setup doesn't just hurt women; it holds everyone back. The goal is to shake up the rules so that women have the same chances and respect as men, leading to a better world for all.
