About This Quote

Many feminists today see society as a system that owes them something. They believe society is obligated to give them more rights and opportunities than they have now. In their view, they are not asking for the moon, they are simply asking for what is rightfully theirs. In contrast to that view, they often say that “the earth doesn’t owe us a living.” The author is implying that feminists have been taken advantage of by society and have been given unfair advantages, such as the opportunity to vote or receive an education.
