Feminism Survey

Survey Topic: "How men and women feel about feminism"
Group Members: Chelsea Burg, Ashley Johnson, Sara Reents, Lashawnda Thornton
Audience: 20 men and women age 25 and over
Purpose: We would like to know if men and women believe that women should be either independent, or the old-fashioned housewife type.
Anticipated Outcome: We believe that the younger men will say that women should be independent, while the men age 50 and over will say that women should be only housewives. We believe that most women will believe that other women should be independent.
Statement of Need: Our survey is important because it will show how men and women's opinions of feminism have changed throughout the generations. Maybe, because the men feel that women should be independent, the men should stay at home.
