This work presents a feminist treatise by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, first published in 1911. It argues that traditional Western culture is male-dominated and has led to various social and cultural problems, including the marginalization of women and the perpetuation of harmful gender stereotypes. Gilman calls for a new, more inclusive culture that values the contributions of both men and women and creates a more equitable and just society. The book remains an essential text in the history of feminist thought.
