Introduction: As Jean-Paul Sartre says ‘Existentialism is humanism; it is felt that Feminism is humanism too.’ It is the problem of half the world. It is a movement for the rights of women including social, political, right to property, employment opportunities and economic equality with men. As George Orwell says ‘All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others,’ within equality, there exists inequality and women in Andhra Pradesh started pointing it through their voice and writing. When it started in 1980, there have been wreaths and wraths, but people have ultimately understood that there is a strong point in Feminism. The emancipation of women is tied to the emancipation of all through education. However, the fight against the exploitation of women and patriarchy has to continue through every possible way and means, including the literature. It should not be a battle of sexes. It should be an attack on the antiquated society. It will be successful, only when men join women in that struggle.

Terminology: feminism, staunch, sharp, male chauvinism, legitimate, conventional, liberal, sensible, discrimination, supremacy, empowerment, emancipation, sensibility
