Mary Wollstonecraft (S. Loomis)

Hello,
My name is Mary Wollstonecraft. I was born on April 27th in 1759 in Spitalfields, London. I have six brothers and sisters, my father, Edward, and my mother, Elizabeth. My father is very violent, and as a result I try to protect my mother as much as possible. I try to fight for many women now a days. They don't get the respect they deserve. Women's rights is now the top priority in my life, and I believe we all should have the same rights as men. In 1792, i wrote Vindication of the Rights of Women. In it, I argue that women should have more of an education. If women were more educated, we could teach children things, and also be able to talk to men intelligently. It is unfair that men are superior intelligently, because we are the same species, and we deserve to get the same treatment as others.

Mary Wollstonecraft later died in 1797 on September tenth. She's known know as one of the beginning feminist Philosophers.
