Harry Potter, By Emma Watson

Watson’s speech depicts feminism as a notion that advocates for equality

Women Goodwill Ambassador. She is speaking about the problem of gender equality and unequal pay for men and women doing the same work. Her purpose is to demonstrate to the audience that the problem affects both men and women. She is fighting for women’s rights, but also trying to persuade men and boys to step up and help the women fight by joining her campaign, HeforShe. Her primary audience is all the delegates and guests who listened to her speech at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, and her secondary audience is men and boys all over the world. She appeals to ethos when she speaks about her own personal experiences with gender based assumptions from ages eight to eighteen in. She says her girlfriends dropped out of their sport teams in order to not appear so masculine. She appeals to pathos when gives the statistics on men’s suicide in the UK in order to tell men that gender equality is their problem as well. She is saying men also fear asking for help because they fear that they will appear un-manly. Watson’s speech is also structured by Monroe’s motivated sequence. She starts off her speech by speaking about her campaign and talking about how her experiences at different ages caused her to become a feminist in order to get the audience’s attention. She then tells the men and boys that gender equality is their issue too. This causes them to understand the need for change. She then formally invites them to help

Emma Watson uses ethos to convince the audience that she is a credible source. Towards the beginning of her speech, Watson explained that her, “girlfriends [dropped]... out of sports…”(1) because appearing muscly would not fit their gender stereotype. Watson mentions her personal experience to make her credible. By mentioning this, people will know why she is familiar with feminism. Since she has experienced gender inequality firsthand, she knows why feminism is necessary and more people will find her as a reliable source. Later in her speech, she mentions a speech made by Hillary Clinton in 1997.

She is one of the world’s most famous feminists in the twenty-first century. Since the age of eight, Watson has experienced gender-based assumptions that prepare her for a life of ridicule and degrading. She incorporates habit one in her life at the age of 14 when the press would start to sexualize her. Living a proactive life, her “expressions are seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating, anti-men, and unattractive” (qtd. in Watson 1). In her speech, she describes what her goals are and what her rights should be. Watson began her journey with the end in mind, similar to the lesson habit two teaches. Her goal is to have equal rights for women and men

Emma Watson recently spoke at a He For She conference to

Many speeches have been made in support of creating equal rights for all men and women, these including Emma Watsons he-for-she speech that was aired across

Interviewer: Greetings Harry Potter. I am an interviewer for ‘The Daily Prophet’ and I am intending to make this interview, the biggest news in the wizarding world! During this session, l would like to ask you questions about your adventure to defeat Voldemort. When you first started out in Hogwarts, you knew that you were the one to defeat Voldemort, but seeing the mission that Dumbledore left for you, what did you think of embarking on that treacherous journey?

Bothe speeches were delivered at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Emma Watson, at the age of 24, launched a campaign called “HeForShe” on September 20, 2014. She is the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador and she was cohosting this event when she gave the speech. She is a famous British actress and has been advocating for gender equality.

Her extrinsic ethos is strong. As a well-educated woman who has been world-widely famous for starring in Harry Potter, she has been dedicating her efforts towards the empowerment of young women and also succeeds in confirming her credibility to her audience through siting experiences she has endured relating to the gender-equality issue at hand. Moreover, the audience’s response and expectation should not be neglected during writing. At first glance, it seems that the audience are women who is always considered as disadvantaged group and Emma spoke for them and encouraged them to seek gender equality. But, it is not true. As the campaign’s name suggests, Emma’s speech with the emotional and informal tone and language is to divert public attention and persuade males to be awareness of the importance of getting male involved in helping to end gender

It is about gender equality and that women should have the same rights and opportunities as men. Emma Watson’s speech mentioned the different gender stereotypes. For an example, there is the stereotype that men have to be aggressive and strong and that women are weak. Who set this standard? Men are just as unequal as women are but everyone deserves to be equal. “Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive… strong…” Gender is something that is innate and is out of our control, so why are we judged by something we can’t change. Part of seeing in a new way is to accept people for the way they are. Everyone should go by the saying they learned in elementary school “Treat others the way you want to be treated”. We wouldn’t want to be put down or have to act a certain way just to conform with others. Everyone is unique in their own way and should be show the world what they can contribute to the

When looking Southern’s video the aimed to destroy feminism and the stigma attached to third wave feminism is a clear motive. Southern starts her video with a strong but intimidating rhetorical question “If feminism is a movement for equality why don’t we see squad representation of both genders issues?”. This not only shocks the audience but also intrigues them explore the antifeminist argument. Watson’s transcript explores and expresses the unfair stereotypes that females and males have to endure on a frequent basis. Watson uses rhetorical questions in her speech “In a country that has achieved marriage equality, shouldn’t gender equality be next?’“. As the rhetorical question was stated at the end of the transcript it is a powerful solid

Women and men are choosing not to be known as a feminist. Women fear of being called a “man hater”, whereas men fear of being called “weak”. Women can easily say they are all for “girl power” and vice versa with men, but can they comprehend why it is so important. Non-feminist and feminist do not understand that women's liberation begins at the acknowledgement of inequality between genders. Emma Watson's speech “he for she”, explains how both genders are fearful of ambition since, ambitions is needed to help fulfill the opportunities of any task. The definition of feminism is explained as “men and woman should have equal rights and opportunities”. Watson explains how the support of men and boys will greatly improve the gender equality dilemma. Women are characterized in the defilement of feminism just as much as men, maybe even more. The male species has had the upper hand for centuries. It may seem different for them to share the “thrown” but in good time it will benefit all. Men will not have to worry about being emotional or strong when need be. They will not be characterized for being a stay at home father for his children. Women will be able to make the same income as men and will be eligible for the same position. In good time all will be equal, all will be

Women's rights are history and our future, from The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) group in 1975 to Michelle Obama and newer leaders today, the changes almost endless. Now women are not just fighting feminist’s rights, women are assisting in international affairs in all sorts of world problems. Solo influences like Emma Watson, First Lady Michelle Obama and Angela Merkel have represented themselves in various address to the government, foreign and international boards, like the president's cabinet, the UN and ambassadors teams.

Emma Watson, best known as a leading actress in the Harry Potter series, gave a speech titled “Gender equality is your issue too” during a HeForShe campaign at the United Nations headquarters in New York City during on September 20, 2014, in attempt to raise awareness about gender inequality. Throughout the speech, Watson attempted to persuade the audience in joining the HeForShe campaign by providing examples of those who have been subject to the burdens of gender inequality – however, this speech could be considered problematic due to Watson’s lack of credibility and failure to include all types of people in our society.

Feminism is often seen as a negative word towards women, but it actually represents the gender inequality for both men and women. In 2014, Emma Watson, a twenty-four-year-old British actress, and the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador co-hosted a special event for the UN Women’s HeForShe campaign. Before Watson was a UN Women’s Ambassador, she was known as a strong activist for women’s rights. The importance of the HeForShe campaign, which is a united movement, to spread and inform the gender equality awareness for both men and women to the public. As a speaker, Watson comes across to her audience as credible also reliable because she is a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, she also sends her message across by building a trust relationship with the
