Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Simone de Beauvoir argued that society had wrongly defined women as being secondary to men and that women should be seen as equal to men. She argued that women had been oppressed and marginalized throughout history and that it was time for them to assert their autonomy and rights. She did not advocate for the complete separation of men and women nor did she believe that a sexual revolution was impossible. Instead, she argued that society needed to recognize the full humanity of women and that women needed to assert their own agency and power.
