About This Quote
Women make up one half of society. Our society will remain backward and in chains unless its women are liberated, enlightened and educated. Many people believe that women and men are equal and should be treated as such. For women to be equal to men, they must be treated as individuals instead of as a group.
If a woman does not have an education, she cannot participate in the world around her. On the other hand, if a woman has an education, she can participate as an individual rather than as a member of a group. In order for women to be truly equal to men, it is important for them to have the same opportunities as men do.
That can only happen if they are liberated from traditional gender roles and be given the opportunity to become educated individuals with a voice in their own lives.
