In the afternoon, Chen Xu stayed in the living room of the mansion in Bresvet and met with Mrs. Oliver Calhoun, president of the Women’s Rights Advocacy Association.

Also present were Abigail, Sadie and Karen, Marybeth and John.

This is a woman of about forty years old, wearing a blue dress and short hair, looking quite competent.

“Matthew Calander…” Chen Xu smiled and stretched out his right hand to introduce himself.

“Olive Calhoun.” The other person also smiled.

After a brief handshake and self-introduction, the two sat down at the table.

In addition to some refreshments, there was a bottle of wine and a pack of cigarettes.

“I heard from Penelope, Mr. Matthew, you are a supporter of our feminist movement?” Olive Calhoun asked.

As a politician.

Yes, a politician.

Even though she differed from Mayor Henri Lemieux, she did not receive a corresponding salary from the federal financial system.

There are also no formal positions.

But she is actually a member of the politicians.

From the beginning of the feminist movement, it has developed to – today.

It does not seem to be a political value, but it has long been inextricably related to the political value.

Even if it’s just an unofficial, non-profit, spontaneous civil society organization.

But when it grows to some scale.

It is destined to bring power, bring money.

So some noblewomen, celebrities, and wives of dignitaries increasingly supported the movement for women’s rights.

It’s not because they support them from the bottom of their hearts.

It’s because of the benefits that come with it.

So Olive Calhoun, as president of Lemorn State, also knows some news that others do not know.

For example, who did some of the Gray family’s properties fall into?

Why was the Braithwaite family able to rise so quickly, and even took over the Gray family’s alcohol market.

Because she knew this, when she heard Penelope say that Chen Xu seemed to be a supporter of the women’s movement, she simply agreed to meet with him.

Even she canceled it outright, and was supposed to go to a small town for a women’s rights movement speaking event.

A person with capital can bring more help to women’s rights organizations.

It doesn’t even take much to do just give the poor women some work.

It could get a huge amount of attention, become the focus of attention for cities, states, and perhaps even the entire federation.

Because work is so important for women.

For most women involved in the feminist movement, they have a very distinctive characteristic.

That is, financially, they can be relatively independent.

And this is where they can fight for freedom and rights.

After all, a woman, if there is no way to be financially independent.

Because of the material and survival needs, it is difficult for her to get rid of men to obtain so-called freedom and rights.

Because she herself is like a vassal being.

So for feminist movement organizations.

They revolve around the most basic core issue, which is to advocate for society to provide more jobs for women.

In practice, however, this practice is very limited.

Because of the physical characteristics of men and women, many jobs are not available to women.

For example, heavy manual labor, as well as work such as transporting goods. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )

So for feminist organizations, jobs are a very important resource.

Once it can be noticed by the society, it means that whether it is aid or donations, and even some members who are willing to join women’s rights organizations, there may be more.

For some people, their lives will be better.

Money is needed for daily food and drink, and it also costs money to organize events such as demonstrations and protests.

And is it excessive for those who maintain and manage the association to protect women’s rights and interests?

“Of course, just as the founding father preached, I have always believed that men and women should live a just, equal, and free life.” Chen Xu said seriously.

“But this society has always had a natural discrimination against women.” Olive Calhoun said with a look of regret.

“Everything will slowly get better, just like the Federation.” Chen Xu said with a smile.

“Of course we believe this, and there are more and more people like you, Mr. Matthew, who are willing to support us.” Olive Calhoun made a grateful face.

“The economy of the Federation has not been very good recently, and many people have lost their jobs.” Chen Xu smiled, and then changed the subject.

Slightly stunned, Olive Calhoun didn’t understand why Chen Xu suddenly said this.

But she was still very configurable: “Yes, it also makes life harder for many women.” ”

Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for a woman to find a formal and decent job.

And even more so the current period of economic downturn?

“Not everyone wants to give us women the opportunity to compete on an equal footing with us, Mr. Matthew.” Olive Calhoun looked at Mary Beth and the others behind Chen Xu who had never spoken, and sighed sincerely.

“I knew some friends, and soon after… Well, about a month, maybe they can offer some jobs, maybe 150-300 places. Chen Xu said unhurriedly.

Hearing this, Olive Calhoun’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

That doesn’t sound like much, but it’s actually just right for Olive Calhoun.

Too little, and of little use.

But there are too many, but it is difficult for her to keep it.

After all, although she is the president of the Women’s Rights Protection Association, she is limited to one region.

If this number becomes 500, or even more.

Then maybe a higher-level phone call will come over to offer condolences.

But they definitely don’t want to encourage themselves to contribute to women’s rights.

Just want to simply snatch this big peach away.

So the number provided by Chen Xu can be said to be stuck in a perfect place.

But overjoyed, Olive Calhoun’s heart became vigilant again.

If there is giving, there must be a reward.

So what does the other party want from her?
