Hello, I will introduce you to the actress Emma Watson and her fight for equal rights

between men and women. Emma Watson was born on April 15, 1990 in Paris. She is above
all, an actress of British origin. Indeed, the general public knows her for her female role of
Hermione Granger in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter film series. In addition to acting, Watson
also became the face of prestigious brands, such as the Burberry clothing line and Lancôme
perfumes. The star is also a fighter for equal rights between men and women, and thus she
has become one of the most influential women internationally.

Just 31 years old and after a brilliant career as an actress, Emma Watson tends to
become a true feminist icon. Feminist activist and committed woman, thanks to her
notoriety, she wishes to defend gender equality but also to be a spokesperson for women.

Men are from Earth, women are from Earth. Deal with it!

Having been appointed Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women in 2014, an agency


fighting for gender equality and women's independence around the world, Emma Watson, in
September of the same year, delivered a remarkable speech at the United Nations
headquarters in New York, calling on both men and women to make gender equality a
priority. However, during this speech, she seems rather upset, and she will later indicate that
it was related to the fact that she had received threats tending to dissuade her from going
up to the rostrum, shortly before her intervention.

Men are from Earth, women are from Earth. Deal with it!

Subsequently, Emma Watson continues her feminist commitment with her


association HEFORSHE, and on March 8, 2015, on the occasion of International Women's
Day, she organizes a question and answer session with her fans on the association's
platform. In addition, thanks to her various actions, this feminist activist inspires many
women to advocate for their freedom and defend their positions, but she does not forget
men. Indeed, this committed woman encourages men to fight alongside women and
especially to support them in their fight for equality. Her commitments earned her the title
of "Feminist Person of the Year" by the American organization Ms. Foundation for Women in
2014.

Men are from Earth, women are from Earth. Deal with it!

Emma Watson is an activist who fights for women and with women. Indeed, it has
carried out several actions undertaken. For example, in 2016, she denounced sexual assault
on university campuses in Britain during a speech at the United Nations, and following this,
she donated one million euros to the association "Justice and Equality" which fights against
sexual harassment in Great Britain. Finally, she also fights against violence against women
through her support for many associations, and she also supports girls' education around the
world since she had traveled to Bangladesh and Zambia for this purpose.

Men are from Earth, women are from Earth. Deal with it!

woman! Men are from Earth, women are from Earth. Deal with it!
