Misplaced Pages

Nübao (meaning Women’s Journal in English) was established in 1898 and as such was one of China’s first women's magazines. The founder was Chen Xiefen, a Chinese feminist and journalist of the Qing era. The magazine had five goals:

• Abolishing foot binding
• Educating girls
• Freeing marriage
• Jobs for women
• Equality with men.

The headquarters of Nübao was in Shanghai. The magazine was closed by the Chinese government in 1903 due to its anti-government stance.
