Feminism 8 ALREADY PASSED
Charlotte Perkins Gilman - ✔✔✔- an early socialist feminist

- gender as a social construct

- young girls forced to conform in society and prepare for motherhood through playing with
toys/clothing etc

- sex and domestic economics go hand in hand, women were reliant on their sexual assets to survive and
please their husbands

- the domestic environment is an instrument of patriarchy, women are economically dependent on men.
Nuclear family needs to be destroyed and replaced by communal living

- solution lies in equality of opportunity



Simone De Bouvoir - ✔✔✔- existentialist philosopher and socialist feminist

- gender is a social construct

- 'otherness' concept, man is dominant and women is 'the other', women are deviants from the norm

- housework as a Sisyphean task

- to achieve equality society must change to provide universal childcare, equal education, contraception,
and legal abortion, as well as women's economic freedom and independence from man in non-
exploitative labour



Kate Millett - ✔✔✔- radical feminist

- sex-based oppression is both political and cultural

- there is overt sexism and heterosexism in Western literature

- undoing the tradition family was the key to true sexual revolution

- all heterosexual relationships essentially political in a patriarchal society, women who are able to
accept lesbianism place themselves on the road to liberation

- the complete destruction of tradition marriage and the nuclear family is the goal of feminism
