During his life women had very few
freedoms. They were often seen as
possessions that were meant to be
controlled by the men of society.
Women rarely worked and even
given the opportunity to they were
sent to do remedial and simple
tasks with very little pay.
With Mills deep passion for
equality and Utilitarianism he
fought for the equality of women in
both the workplace and in society.
Mill lived during the Industrial Revolution
and witnessed a dramatic change in attitudes
regarding industry and labour.
Mill saw an opportunity to push for equal
women's rights.
Instead of using women as house keepers
and possessions, Mills fought for their
rights to work in association with men,
and to have equal rights in the areas of:
Work
Pay
Voting
Schooling
Utilitarianism: Mills believed
that an action is morally right as
long as it leads to happiness. He
was one of the great liberal
defenders of personal
autonomy, civil liberties,
creativity, and individuality.
In this time Mills would have
been seen as a radical politician
bringing his country into an age
of modern liberalism a far leap
across the political spectrum.

Fiercely defended right to free speech and was
against censorship
