“The beginning is always today.” ― Mary Wollstonecraft

Mary Wollstonecraft, married name Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, (born April 27, 1759, London, -1797, London), English writer and passionate advocate of educational and social equality for women.
A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is one of the trailblazing works of feminism. Published in 1792, Wollstonecraft’s work argued that the educational system of her time deliberately trained women to be frivolous and incapable. She posited that an educational system that allowed girls the same advantages as boys would result in women who would be not only exceptional wives and mothers but also capable workers in many professions. Other early feminists had made similar pleas for improved education for women, but Wollstonecraft’s work was unique in suggesting that the betterment of women’s status be effected through such political change as the radical reform of national educational systems. Such change, she concluded, would benefit all society.
