Answer:

When it came to the rights and equality of women in India, Periyar was a feminist at a time the word was still alien to India. Without even having the need to have read Virginia Woolf, he understood the importance of women’s financial independence and struggled to legally secure women their property rights. He firmly stood against all the oppressive structures, be it the institution of marriage, motherhood, customs, rituals, and traditions. Periyar recognised and understood that chastity, marriage, and motherhood are means through which patriarchy subjugated women. Pregnancy and childbirth were viewed as obstacles to liberty and chastity meant women’s ‘unfreedom’.
