As a woman, I encountered many troubles during my growing up, such as sexual harassment, gender-based violence, and my inferiority complex as a woman. I have endured them silently, and I have never seriously reflected on the social reasons behind them. ,Later, because I watched some feminist films and books, and saw many works of female artists, I gradually became interested in feminism and studied it in depth. This is not only a postgraduate topic, but also a life topic of self-exploration.I am very lucky to be able to receive a different education in a country where art and feminism are more developed, so that I can learn more knowledge and start to think differently.
But I believe that in my country, there are still many women who are not aware of this gender issue, and men also have a lot of prejudice against feminism, so I conducted a survey questionnaire, hoping to have a more comprehensive understanding of domestic audiences’ attitudes towards feminism.
The total number of participants in the questionnaire is 105.68.6% of them are women，21.9% are male.Participants are between the ages of 18 and 35.and mostly students and company employees.
69.5% of them said they had a little understanding of feminism, 21.9% had a basic understanding, and only one person had a deep understanding.When asked about attitudes towards feminism，64.8% expressed their support，27.6% are neutral.
As for the final open question，What is feminism?
The answer for most stakeholder is that gender equality.and Some of them think it is independent .And two people who say feminism is no feminism.one person said that the essence of feminism is the pursuit of rights as a human being.
I also found a very interesting thing in their answers.Many people don’t even know what the word feminism means,Because feminism is translated in Chinese as “女权主义” as well as “女性主义“.The former is more derogatory，while the latter is a neutral word. It means the same thing but they think misunderstand it’s different .
