john Locke believed that the control of any person against her or his will was unacceptable, whether in the form of an unfair government or in slavery. Locke wrote, "The natural liberty of man is to be free from any superior power on earth, and not to be under

the will or legislative authority of man, but only have the law of nature for his rule." He

extended his ideas about freedom to a belief in civil liberties. Locke felt that women had the

ability to reason, which entitled them to an equal voice, at least in the home - an unpopular idea during this time in history.

John Locke did believe that role of government is to apply the low and to establish justice in society and she has nothing to do but that.

That the only legitimate form of government is one established by the consent of the people and committed to upholding their fundamental human rights to life, liberty, and property.
