In The Subjection of Women, John Stuart Mill argues that the existing condition of gender inequality is not only fundamentally immoral but also hinders human happiness by its very existence. He claims that men should not have more privileges and power than women, and instead, men and women should be completely equal.
Mill asserts that the unfair system of gender inequality wasn't chosen through careful thought, but rather came about due to the "law of the strongest," which benefits those who are physically stronger.
