This recent declaration on her way out of public life begs the question: Is her recent revelation too little too late? As journalist Rachel Maddow often says, “Watch what they.” With this principle in mind, many of Merkel’s lifestyle choices and the policies she implemented supported the cornerstone of feminist principles—even if her words did not reflect it.
When questioned by a journalist about repeatedly wearing the same clothing to public events, she responded that she was a chancellor—. One could interpret those comments as someone who wants to be judged based upon something other than their physical appearance—again, characteristics consistent that of a feminist.
Besides Merkel’s own life choices which reflect someone who at least embraces the concept of feminism, many of the policies she implemented under her tenure helped to enhance gender equality. Atypical for Merkel’s conservative Christian Democratic Union Party, Merkel is pro-choice.
Angela Merkel will be missed. For 16 years she has been a model of feminism, whether or not she used the word. It’s what you do that counts.
