Feminism is a movement for gender equality between men and women. It opposes patriarchy, misogyny, and sexism. It can be divided into bourgeois feminism, which focuses solely on gender, and proletarian feminism, which sees women's oppression as rooted in class society.[1]
First Wave[edit | edit source]
The First Wave of feminism lasted from the late 19th century to early 20th century. First wave feminists struggled for women's suffrage, equality of inheritance, and equal property rights. This stage was mostly organized by bourgeois women but also included some radical feminists.[2]
Second Wave[edit | edit source]
The Second Wave of feminism lasted from the 1960s to the 1980s and was more radical and proletarian than the First Wave. It focused on workplace rights, sexuality, reproductive rights, and sexual violence.[2]
Third Wave[edit | edit source]
The Third Wave of feminism began in the 1990s. It included the LGBT+ community and criticized earlier waves for being too Eurocentric. Some say that a Fourth Wave began in the 2010s, and others say that the Third Wave has continued until the present.[2]
