I've just submitted my first piece of work as an Honours student.

It may be summarised as follows:

Dear sociologists everywhere,

I would like to refer you to the interesting, varied, overlapping and quite often wildly contradictory worlds of, just off the top of my head, liberal feminism, radical feminism, materialist feminism, queer feminism, Marxist feminism, psychoanalytic feminism, cultural feminism, post-structural feminism, separatist feminism, postcolonial feminism, sex-positive feminism, ecofeminism, lesbian feminism, men's feminism, socialist feminism, modernist feminism, transfeminism, difference feminism and postfeminism.

In the event that you work up the courage necessary to claim that the problem with feminism is that it focusses on gender, then I may be willing to not dismiss out of hand your suggestion that there is "a" problem with "feminism".

Yours,
Beck


Y'all can google them yourself. If you can't find a feminism that suits you, you haven't looked hard enough.
