Hey!

Just wanted to point out that your article was very interesting and I liked how you added the part of the phrase "ladies first" I feel like you should elaborate a little more on this phrase like the origins from where it came from because it must have had some importance at some point in time. And maybe mention that though this is a problem for many women, that some women feel the need to have this in society still and maybe why they feel that way.

Terminology suggestion

Just as a quick note, I found your article interesting, however the early mention of "the movement" seemed quite vague and didn't really help pin down your argument's relevance to feminism. Consider replacing this with more specific terminology that aligns your opening description with feminism and contemporary feminist movements. This would really help support your opening information, and back up the extensive data you later reference. I like your data based approach!

Hi, I enjoyed reading your wiki article. I think your paragraph about men saying "ladies first" is an interesting component to being up when talking about gender equality because it incorporates history into the feminist movement. Personally, I do not find anything wrong with the comment "ladies first" because there is nothing stopping women from changing history and saying "men first" when opening a door or such; possibly that will be a good comment to add? - that not all women think the phrase is bad? I think it is important to note possibly where the phrase arose from as well. - Nancy Andrews
