Women Professors

In this article from The Guardian it shows how becoming a women professor can have its pros and cons.  Sally Tomlinson tells the story of her success as a professor as well as the hardships she faced from some of her male counterparts  and her females of her family. Sally really gave hope in this article for women who are part of the working class, she states how to succeed in life and how as a women you can do anything you want.  Sally Tomlinson shows that in the face of adversity if you stick to what you know and you always fight back you will succeed. Feminist from around the world can relate to Sally because of her actions in life and her will to succeed in field originally dominated by men, and not only did she succeed but she managed to start a family and support herself, without the help of her husband.  She succeeded through hard work and ambition and feminist can appreciate that.

  1. I really enjoyed reading this article and blog. I believe feminism goes on in everyday life. Women should have the same opportunities in life as men. It is interesting to see how women are treated differently in the work force, socially, and emotionally. Women are able to do as much as men are able to do and all people need to realize this. I am looking forward to more of your blogs on this fascinating topic. We can all really relate to your blogs because we are all females and are faced with feminism everyday even though we may not be aware of it.
