I think that young women today embrace feminism in some of the same ways that women of the 1970's and before embraced their rights. Before the 1970's abortions were illegal in America which many feminist believe is a right that a woman should be able to make for herself. In order to make these feminist movements a reality though, women needed to come together and support one another. Women in today's society are still fighting to keep their rights. In the Muscio and Chernick articles, they both discuss from their own experiences, that it is most important for feminist women in today's society to constantly support one another. As friends, as sisters, as women, we need to come together and support each other's female struggles and obstacles, just as the women of our yesteryear. If the women before the 1970's hadn't come together to change women's rights, the women of today would struggle even more to come together on current issues.
