In the book, the author comes out in favor of legal and social equality of men and women. We can say that the basis of the work is the following opinion: "The legal subordination of one sex to the other is wrong in itself and represents one of the main obstacles to human perfection."
At the time Mill published The Subjugation of Women, women in her country and abroad did not have the right to vote. A married woman was not a separate legal entity from her husband, and any property or money she owned was under the latter's control.
The common rationale for women's subordinate legal status was that they were morally superior to men and therefore best confined to the family, where they would be protected from the corrupting influence of public life and able to shape the morals of the next generation, which Mill argued was illogical: “There is no other A situation of life where it is established as a rule and considered natural and appropriate that the better obeys the worse."
It was widely believed that women were more emotional than rational and did not have the intellectual capacity of men. According to Mill, if women appear emotional, passive, and apolitical, it's because they were raised that way. In making this claim, Mill echoes Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, published almost 70 years earlier. Mill argues that until society treats women and men equally, it will be impossible to know the natural abilities of women, or to know whether there are innate differences between the sexes.
Despite the steps taken in the direction of protecting women's rights, the work with many ideas formed in "Subjugation of Women" is still relevant and deservedly considered the first important text in the field of feminism.
