The main goal of the women's liberation movement in the late 20th century was to achieve gender equality across various aspects of society, including employment, reproductive rights, and legal status. Activists sought to dismantle systemic patriarchy and fight against discrimination in both public and private spheres. By advocating for equal pay, abortion rights, and equal representation in political offices, the movement aimed to empower women, offering a platform for addressing issues of oppression and inequality. This led to significant social change and laid the groundwork for future feminist movements.
