Campoamor is the heroic example of the suffragettes , customize and put a face to that struggle shared by thousands. Now we need more women like her (and men like those who supported it) because the revolution that can not be won by half:

"I just won the first round." One way to explain that the revolution was only the first step of all that the Egyptians still have left to give.
he was right. Ablation, a shocking figures sexual harassment (Penal Code does not criminalize the abuse and only if there are wounds may consider crime) and low if not nil, political representation. "We can not let us leave out in this revolution as we can not accept that the figure of illiteracy among us is 40%, "Badran argues.
In 2010, women held only eight of the 454 seats in Parliament. The fraudulent parliamentary election December were the first to incorporate an improvement: a female quota was set limited to 64 seats. But the transition has not made a good start. If the government of Hosni Mubarak had three women among a score of ministers, the new Cabinet Essam Sharaf has only one: Fayza Abul Naga. Not to mention the issue of constitutional amendment, which reformers were all boys.
the problem for Badran has a clear solution of the least: "Women should be present in any body or committee, represented at least 30% of the total."
