my monologue

In the beginning, I was not one of them. I found them inevitable, touching them by chance, and being with them suddenly.

At first, I couldn't understand them either, and like many people, I watched them from a distance, almost silently.

It wasn't until after this suddenness that I started to face up to the oppression I suffered, and I started to want to be a person.

When I tried to be a person, I was misunderstood, mocked, bullied, and shut out of my family.

My dignity has long been trampled in the mud, and when I wanted to pick up my dignity, they tried to step on my dignity lower in various ways.

Therefore, when ridicule spreads, coercion surrounds, and family affection becomes conditional charity, I can only move forward more firmly.

I don't want to be an enslaver, an oppressor, a hegemon, I just want to be a human being.

Enslavers, oppressors, and hegemons often make rules, they think men come first, then men.

And I know that first there are people, and then there are men and women.

I am a man first, and then a woman.

I should have the rights that people are born with, I should have the freedoms that people are born with, and I should also have the rights given to people by society.

    "The only language a man understands is war."

    No one will listen to what you say, no one will watch what you do, people are ignoring you, ignoring you, seeing all struggles as boredom or wishful thinking, only dying in front of a king, a patriarchal leader, can cause a point in this world compassion. It has only been a hundred years, but there are still so many people who feel that women have gained too much power that they should not have. The slaves were promoted to housemaids, and the housewives began to be vigilant.

Suffragette quotes

  • Sonny Watts: I took you on, Maud. Thought I could straighten you out.

    Maud Watts: What if you don't have to?

    Sonny Watts: You're a mother, Maud. You are a wife. You're my wife, and that's all you're meant to be.

    Maud Watts: I'm not just that anymore.

  • Maud Watts: [voice over, letter to Inspector Steed] Dear Inspector Steed. I thought about your offer, and I have to say no. You see, I am a suffragette after all. You told me no one listens to girls like me. Well I can't have that anymore. All my life, I've been respectful, done what men told me. I know better now. I'm worth no more, no less than you. Mrs. Pankhurst said, "If it's right for men to fight for their freedom, then it's right for women to fight for theirs." If the law says I can't see my son, I will fight to change that law. We're both foot soldiers, in our own way. Both fighting for our cause. I won't betray mine. Will you betray yours? If you thought I would, you were wrong about me. Yours sincerely, Maud Watts.
