Congratulations! | Your radical is Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797)

Mary Wollstonecraft was a writer who strongly believed in educational equality for women.

Black and white stencil of a white female, Mary Wollstonecraft, on a green background.Like Mary, you’re keen to make a true commitment to self-improvement. She was passionate about securing the right to education for all, regardless of gender. This belief led her to be seen as one of the founding feminist philosophers.

Mary had bold views but made measured and considered decisions – she envisioned a fair society based on reason. Reason and careful decisions also guide your life – you like to be sure you’ve done the right thing and made the right choices.
