But, of course, not everyone was a fan of Wollstonecraft's ideas. The patriarchy was like, "Uh, no thanks, we're good with the whole women-being-submissive thing." And they tried to shut her down with some pretty sexist and misogynistic comments. But Wollstonecraft was all, "Bring it on, I can handle it!" and continued to speak her mind.
One of the most amazing things about Wollstonecraft is that she was a single mom who had to work multiple jobs to support herself and her daughter. Talk about a superwoman! She's like the 18th-century version of a girl boss, minus the Instagram filters and pricey coffee.
