I am tired and angry. I am tired of having to explain that wanting equality, doesn't mean I am trying to take away men's rights. I am tired of having more qualifications and work experience than my male colleagues, however they are picked first for consultancy roles. I am angry that my wedding ring has more power to spurn unwanted advances than my actual voice. I am tired of men trying to "mansplain" things to me. I am angry that I am called, irrational, hysterical or even just "at that time of the month" when I speak passionately about something. And I am absolutely incredulous, at the fact that the above still occurs. It is 2015, and enough is enough. WE is desperately require, change is needed, more Equailty conversations at government level have to be listened to, along with sustained systematic change to address equaility issues must occur. WE can not sit back. WE must not let this continue. WE will bring change.

In my business world I achieved, I was promoted, valued, I inspired...in his world I became nothing...no voice only tears. For 28 years then I left - freedom!. My first butterfly wing, the second came on retiring from an autocratic organisation - the freedom of voice and choice was awesome!

I have felt like the lone voice crying in the wilderness at times. I worked with women in the 80s and 90s to build their confidence and careers but as my career in leadership grew I was always dealing with the most senior people - always men! Worse still- I didn't notice for a while. So I have researched, written books, worked on developing women and changing organisations, achieving change one woman at a time. But It just is not fast enough. Despite the work of the suffragettes 100 years ago and the feminists of the 70s, in many instances things are getting worse. We have been a bit too accepting and scared of causing a fuss. Women still only make up 29% of parliament so how can our concerns be adequately represented? Men too have so much to gain through widespread equality as the old macho ways do not suit many modern men either.

Fifty years a Feminist. Hundreds of years of change coming too little and too slow. Time for a Political party of Action for Equality, not the token bleatings of careerist politicians.

Women are not yet on an equal footing. We still have a way to go. I am outraged by the statistics of domestic violence and sexual violence against women in this country. I know many men who are equally outraged yet don't know how to stand up against the inequalities with us. I find the attitudes towards women staggering. I work in the media and sexism is rife because it it has gone unchallenged for so long. I'm now making waves!

WE has huge potential to be BIG and make real impact. Very keen to work with you and help achieve that. And, of course, you have a potentially huge resource with the many, many women (and men!) and women's groups with incredible skills and talents and drive who would be in support... GO #WE !

It's taken me until my late twenties to recognise the huge problems caused by gender inequality, both on an individual and a societal level - and now I've opened my eyes, I see it everywhere. As I approach the years when people generally begin settling down and having children, I'm suddenly very aware of how differently men and women get treated, and the huge impact this has on women's lives. It's not right, and I don't want my future to be impeded just because I'm a woman, while the men around me exceed me in all aspects of public life. As a teenager, I was in an abusive relationship with a man who repeatedly beat and raped me. Looking back, I see this as a result of a misogynistic society that failed to teach young people about consent, that failed to teach boys and men that it's wrong to abuse women, that failed to teach me, as a woman, that I was worth more than the treatment I was receiving, that failed to help me when I needed it most. It breaks my heart to think there are naive young women and teenagers out there now going through what I went through, and I don't see any signs that society has moved forward or is doing much to prevent it.

Ah....people...Looking at humanity, I realise that I might have very high expectations for how other humans should behave. don't be an A**hole, that's the basic rule, and our world system is like a giant anus. Come on... Women's equality is a no-brainer, absolutely no arguments can be made against a fair and equal society, let's do this thing! I do my part to help for the environment, sensible politics, freedom to be happy and unrepressed and equality! It's important to lead by example and not be all talk and no action, so this is my way of actually doing something about this mess. I'm so happy this is happening in the UK, I hope one day this party can spread to my native switzerland and make a difference there. It's needed.

A proud woman, 24 years old, journalist and presenter. I believe society is structured in such a way that women cannot fully prosper, because it's foundations are built by the patriarchy. We need to address the grassroots and re-root the foundations if we want to break glass ceilings; or rather create better ones!

Female, Mother of 2, Wife, Employee ... but overall a human being. ALL human beings should be treated equally.

Women take fewer risks which could badly affect them and their families. We are the world's carers whose voices are not heard. These are the voices of reason, of balance. We have been repressed for centuries and I condemn women who do not vote in elections - shame on you. Women need to work together but more importantly we have to be supportive of each other and deal with petty jealousies, bullying and spiteful gloating towards other women. Until we are on each other's' sides we will not succeed, don't forget the Tory party is built on the old boys network.

But then I realised that the patriarchy had just got better at disguising inequality and belittling those who stood against it. I will not rest until women are proportionally represented in the House of Commons and House of Lords, not just the 22% we have currently. Until female CEOs head more than just 5% of the UKs top 100 largest companies. Until the culture of victim blaming is abolished and more than 1% of rapists are bought to justice. So that my nieces and future female generations can grow up in a safer, fairer world, not one where they are objectified and treated purely as an ornament.

I just happen to be female, I want equality for all. Why should that bother some people? The fact that inequality still exists should give everybody cause for concern. Let's move this thing forward. Together we can achieve so much.

and I want him to grow up in a society that values everyone equally regardless of gender. I have found becoming a parent has not mellowed me - it has made me more aware of inequalities in our society, more aware these inequalities should not exist and ever more aware if we want the next generation to live in a fairer society, we are the ones to do something about it! So I am all for a party that looks to address some of these inequalities, whether that be gay rights, equal opportunities for BAME members of society or (in this case) equal opportunities for women. Fantastic idea that I can't wait to hear more about!

Its not possible to be complacent about women's rights. Things have come a long way but in some respect the status of women in this world has never been more precarious and unequal. Those of us who are fortunate to have benefitted from the improvements in our rights must now help those still struggling to get even the most basic of rights.

Mother of 2 young women and 2 young men in their mid twenties I am only too aware how much more needs to be achieved for equality to become a reality.
