Feminist as the New-Age Revolutionist

Abstract

It is necessary for this paper to explain a few basic and limited set of theoretical principles in feminism and few basic assertions of the feminist movement. The feminist movement combated against gender bias and the associated myths that degraded and marginalized women. Literature and the general culture promulgated a poor and subordinate images of women and made them unequal to men. The feminist point out that cultural mind-set in men and women perpetuated the hegemony. Feminism draw its power and intelligence from linguistics, post-structuralism, and the latter Marxism. Feminism reveals that and the later Marxism. Feminism reveals that the hegemony against women is political and power structured: Feminist challenge the representation of women as “other” as a lack or as part of nature or God-ordained.
