Marie Curie won two Nobel prizes, the Davy medal, and the Matteucci medal. However she was not allowed to vote.
After the war, women were in competition with men trying to find work.
In the 1960s women fought to be treated equally and fairly.
Feminism today.
Miley Cyrus told BBC Radios !'s News beat that she feels like society has a double standard:
"I feel like I'm one of the biggest feminists in the world, because I tell women to not be scared of anything."
Kelly Clarkson
"No, I wouldn't say feminist, thats too strong. I think when people hear feminist, it's like, 'Get out of my way, I don't need anyone.' I love that I'm being taken care of and I have a man that's a leader. I'm not a feminist in that sense."
Stereotypes.
Stereotypes can be a dangerous word.
Only 13% of women fit the stereotype of being a stay at home mum.
False stereotypes today.
"People from the South (U.S.) are hicks, rednecks, poor, uneducated, have missing teeth, have no college education, are hillbillies, have no class, etc."
Stereotypes work to naturalise (to make seem natural).
