Since ancient Greece, landing in modern times, women have been considered an addition to men. In this article, documentary research was used as a methodological approach. There were women who fought for the rights of their sex. One of them was Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797), philosopher of the Enlightenment, pioneer in enforcing the vote and education of women. Some ideas about her work are needed. Likewise, the role of women in the work of the philosopher Rousseau (1712-1778) is addressed. It concludes by questioning whether women in Wollstonecraft’s time had other options apart from those imposed socially, that is, being a wife and mother. However, there were women who made an effort, but their daring cost them dearly, since it went against what was established.

Palabras llave : woman; submission; Wollstonecraft; Rousseau.
