FEMINISM (2ND WAVE OF FEMINISM: 1960'S TO 1990'S WAVE OF RADICIAL…

- - - - BOOK 2ND SEX
    - - THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE
  - - - ONE IS NOT BORN WOMEN
        BUT ONE BECOMES WOMEN
      - RADICAL FEMINISM IS INFLUENCED BY JEAN PAUL SATRE(GAVE CONCEPT OF EXISTENTIALISM)
        
        EXISTENTIALISM
        (FRENCH PHILOSOPHY)
        
        HELD THAT EXISTENCE IS PRIOR TO ESSENSE
        
        EXISTENCE: MAN: IN ORIGNAL SENSE
        
        ESSENSE: IDENTITY WHICH SOCIETY GIVES TO MAN
        
        PERSON SHOULD HAVE FREEDOM TO DETERMINE OWN IDENTITY
        
        ACC. TO SATRE: TRADITION OF ESSENSE HAS ITS ROOTS IN RELIGION
        
        RELIGION SUGGEST THAT MAN IS CREATED BY GOD
        
        N GOD WANTS MAN TO FULFILL CERTAIN GOALS AND IF NOT MAN WILL BE PUNISHED
        
        IT APPEARS AS IF MAN IS A ROBOT , REMOTELY CONTROLLED BY GOD
        
        IT TREATS MAN AS AN OBJECT RATHER THAN SUBJECT
        
        SO SATRE HELD THAT GOD IS BAD FAITH
        N BELIEVE IN ONESELF IN GOOD FAITH
      - SIMON DE BEAVOR IN BOOK 2ND SEX
        
        ONE IS NOT BORN WOMEN
        BUT ONE BECOMES WOMEN THIS IDEA IS EXPRESSED ON BASIS OF EXISTENTENCE RATHER THAN ESSENSE
        
        ESSENSE IN HER CONTEXT IS PATRIARCHY
        
        ACC. TO HER WE LIVE IN GENDERED SOCIETY
        
        GENDERED SOCIETY: WHICH GIVES PREFRENCE TO A PARTICULAR GENDER: PATRIARCHAL SOCIETY
        
        RADICAL FEMINIST MAKE A DIFFRENCE B/W SEX AND GENDER
        
        SEX: BIOLOGICAL
        
        GENDER: A SOCIAL TERM
        
        WOEMN IS NOT JUST THE OTHER SEX BUT 2ND SEX: SHOWING SUBORDINATE STATUS OF WOMEN
        
        ONE IS NOT BORN WOMEN
        BUT ONE BECOMES WOMEN BECOZ:
        
        A WOMEN IDENTITY IS GIVEN BY SOCIETY..
        SOCIETY DOESN'T GIVE FREE OPPORTUNITY TO DECIDE HIS HER GENDER
        
        SOCIETY TREATS MAN AS A OBJECT RATHER THAN SUBJEVT
        
        PROCESS OF BECOMING WOMEN START FROM TIME OF BIRTH .. AND PROCESS CONTINUES
        
        SO IN RADICAL FEMINISM: IT DENOUNCES NORMS OF SOCIETY
        
        THIS HAS GIVEN RISE TO CONCEPTS LIKE RIGHTS OG LGBT
        
        SIMON HAS HIGHLIGHTED MANY MYTHS ASSCOIATYED WITH WOMEN
        
        LIKE WOMWN ENJOYS MOTHERHOOD... BUT NOT LIKE THAT
        
        SHE HAS CRITICISED STREAMS LIKE SCIENCE AND PSYCHOLOGY FOR PERPETUATING MYTHS
        
        LIKE IN MEDICIAL SCIENCE WOMEN IS DEFINED IN TERMS OF MEN
        
        PSYCHOLOGY SIGMOND FREUD SUGGESTED THAT MOST IMP. GOAL OF WOMEN IS TO APPEAR ATTRACTIVE TO MEN
        
        SO SHE ASKS BOTH MEN AND WOEMN TO WORK TOGETHER TO BRING WOMEN OUTOF PATRIARCHY
    - - SHE HAS ALSO EXPLODED VARIOUS MYTHS WRT WOMEN
      - IN MANY INTERVIEWS OF WELL OFF WOMEN SHE FOUND WOMEN WERE NOT SATISFIED WITH THERE LIVES
        
        MOST OF THEM RESPONDED : THAT SOMETHING IS MISSING
        
        SHE SUGGESTED PROB AS: PROB WITH NO NAME
        
        SHE DEFINED THIS PROB AS PATRIARCHY
      - ACC. TO HER RIGHTS: POLITICAL, SOCIO- ECONOMIC ARE NOT ENOUGH
        
        TILL PATRIARCHY WILL CONTINUE IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR WOMEN TO GAIN TRUE SATISFACTION
      - CRITICISE MEDIA , SOCIEY, WOMEN MAGZINE: THAT SHOW HOUSEWIFE LEADING A HAPPY LIFE
        
        THEIR MYTH IS THAT WOMEN SHOULD MARRY AT A RIGHT AGE AFTER WHICH SHE WILL NOT BE ATTRACTIVE SO SHE HAS TO LEAVE HER CARRER
    - - HELD THAT WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT NOT JUST POLITICS B/W CLASSES BUT POLITICS N/W SEXES
      - HELD THAT ECONOMIC STRUCTUREE IS NOT THE BASE STRUCTURE BUT PATRIARCHY IS BASE STRUCTURE
      - HENCE ANGELS WAS WRONG : THAT ONCE CAPITALISM ENDS WOMEN WILL AUTOMATICALLY LIBERATED
    - - HELD THAT MEN CAN'T BE FEMINISED
      - SO SHE GAVE CONCEPT OF SISTERHOOD
        
        SHE IS AGAINST HETROSEXUAL SEXUAL FAMILIES
        
        PROPOSES HOMOSEXUAL FAMILIES
      - HELD THAT EVENTS OF RAPES
        
        ARE NOT FOR SATISFACTION OF SEXUAL DESIRE
        
        RAPE IS INSTITUTION OF PATRIARCHY.. TO KEEP WOMEN UNDER PERMANENT FEAR OF MAN
- - - - IN 1792 SHE WROTE: INDICATION OF RIGHTS OF WOMEN
        
        WHERE SHE QUESTIONED EXCLUSION OF WOMEN FROM CITIZENSHIP, RIGHT AND DUTIES
      - SHE ALSO WRITTEN CHARTER OF RIGHTS OF WOMEN
        
        SO EARLY PHASE OF FEMINISM IS ALSO CALLED LIBERAL FEMINISM
    - - MOST IMP RIGHT WAS RIGHT TO VOTE
        
        THAT'S WHY FEMINIST MOVEMENT CALLED SUFFRAGATE MOVEMENT
    - - WAS THE 1ST CONVENTION TO FORMALLY DEMAND RIGHT TO VOTE IN USA
    - - INSPIRED FROM ANGELS
        
        HELD THAT CAPITALISM IS EXPLOTATIVE OF WOMEN
        WOMEN SUPPORT COMMUNIST REVOLUTION
        BECOZ IT IS THE ONLY WAY FOR THERE LIBERATION
      - LENIN ALSO SUPORTER OF EQUALITY FOR WOMEN
        
        LENIN WAS FIRST PERSON TO GIVE STATUS OF MINISTER OF CABINET TO WOMEN
  - - - POST FEMINIST DIDN'T SUPPORT THE RADICAL FEMINIST ARGUMENT
      - DON'T SUPPORT THAT WOMEN ARE SUBORDINATE SEX : 2ND SEX
        
        DIDN'T SUPPORT WOMEN MYTH CONCEPT
      - THEY SUGGEST THAT WOMEN SHOULD CELEBRATE WOMENHOOD
    - - BLACK FEMINISM
      - POST-COLONIAL FEMINISM
      - ECOFEMINISM
        
        VANDNA SHIVA: MAN HAVE EXPLOITED BOTH WOMEN AND NATURE
        
        WOMEN AND NATURE ARE CLOSELY LINKED.. WOMEN ARE WORST SUFFERER OF ENVIRONMENT DEGRADATION
        
        SO THERE CAN'T BE SUSTAINBLE DEVELOMENT: W/O GIVING CENTRALITY TO WOMEN
        
        MAN IS CONSUMERIST BY NATURE AND WOMEN IS CONSERVATIST BY NATURE
