John Stuart Mill was a child prodigy who, in adulthood, embraced social change, advocating the abolition of slavery, votes for the working class, and total, absolute gender equality 'The Subjection of Women' is a wonderfully rational destruction of the arguments advanced in favour of male dominance. Mill dissects concepts such as Marriage, Employment, and the 'General Good', proving that women are not the 'naturally' weaker sex. In politics, the arts, science and a host of other roles, women have shown themselves equal to men. It is the social environment that lowers female aspirations, teaching them to accept a submissive, 'feminine' role.
John Stuart Mill
John Stuart Mill was a British philosopher, political economist, and civil servant who is widely regarded as one of the most influential thinkers of the 19th century. Known for his work in ethics, political philosophy, and economics, Mill was a key figure in the development of liberal thought and is particularly associated with utilitarianism, a moral philosophy that promotes actions that maximise happiness and minimise suffering. His commitment to individual liberty, utilitarian ethics, and social reform has left a lasting legacy, making him a foundational figure in the development of modern liberalism and feminism.
