During the 1960's, Women started protesting for equal rights; because before the 1960's, women were seen as housewives, or stay at home mothers who weren't allowed to work. It made many women upset and made them feel they needed to reform the female stereotype.

In 1968 in Atlantic City, New Jersey, 150 women from six different cities gathered to protest the American beauty standards models. They felt that parading women around to show off their "perfect" bodies and looks, were making other women feel inferior for not being as pretty. They then began to throw feminine stereotyped objects into trashcans called "freedom cans" to show their independence from men. They threw high heels, lipstick, dresses, curlers, and bras into the bin. Some women believed that the bras were set on fire before the trash cans were lit. This led to the "Bra-Burning Movement"

One of my favorite and more recent parts of the feminist movement was the Riot Grrrl era of the late 80's early 90's. Riot Grrrl is a rock sub genre specifically for women fighting anti feminism. Some of the best Riot Grrrl bands in my opinion were, Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, Babes in Toyland, and Hole. Their lyrics combined feminism, punk music, and polotics.
