About Us

This is not an academic platform. The Diary of an Evolved Feminist is a platform for authentic women’s voices on how feminism and the quest for equality with men has affected women’s quality of life and overall happiness. An Evolved Feminist seeks to be the best contribution she can be in society and to be happy. She is grateful for the opportunities that the feminist movement has opened up and is intentional about what she wants and what gives her tangible happiness. What we are not doing here is opening up a space for anyone seeking equality of sexes in its most perfect form. There’s enough academic literature on that, we are here to present an alternative theory that a woman’s happiness and her value and contribution to society cannot be defined by the latest gender debate or academic literature. A woman’s happiness is not woven in equality with men – and perhaps it shouldn’t be

PURPOSE

The Diary seeks to present an alternative theory for women, which is based on women and happiness. This theory embraces the differences of the sexes as its basis and the need to address women’s emotional needs as the core elements for women’s happiness. The Diary challenges the notion that there’s a unidimensional outlook of a successful woman and celebrates women in the plethora of informed choices they make to build a happy and harmonious society.

Inspiration

“It is inspired by all women who have been disillusioned by trying to conform or victimised for failing to conform to the feminist agenda around equality.”

The inspiration for the Diary comes from every career woman whose successes in the workplace hasn’t translated into inner joy and tangible happiness. Every housewife who feels her place and contribution in society is being undermined and discarded. And Every woman who at plus 40 has come to the realization that her biological clock ticks faster than that of a man

Vision

“A new world order where women are more obsessed about their contribution in building a happy and harmonious society than equality with men.”

The vision is to build a society where women are fully aware of the opportunities that the feminist movement has opened up for them but who embrace these opportunities with a recognition of their womanhood and where their happiness resides. Building a happy and harmonious society requires a lot more than the equality of the sexes.
