'''Feminism''' is a range of political movements, ideologies, and social movements that share a common goal: political, economic, personal, and social equality for people of all [[sexes]] and [[gender]]s. Feminist movements mainly campaign for women's rights, including the right to vote, to hold public office, to work, to earn fair wages or equal pay, to own property, to receive education, to enter contracts, to have equal rights within marriage, and to have maternity leave.
