Mary Wollstonecraft lived between April 27, 1759, and September 10, 1797. An English writer, philosopher who was among the first to deal with women’s rights. “ Vindication of the Rights of Woman” in 1792 was a pioneering work and is still considered a fundamental work by feminist and human rights movements. It caricatures the notion that women are nothing but pretty but incapable creatures. Wollstonecraft explains that, with proper education, women are awakened and able to use their intellectual abilities. She objected to women being judged on the basis of stereotypes attached to them, not as people with equal rights. Unfortunately, this is still the case in many areas of life.

Today, it is no longer a question in our country, Hungary, that women can learn, moreover, there are more highly educated women, yet few in decision-making positions. There are also unfavorable differences in earnings, which are exacerbated by the birth of children. A daily paradox, while women are expected to have children, they do not receive enough support to reconcile work and family, and their workload and financial dependency increases.
