Liberal Feminism RATED A+
Beliefs/Values -✔✔✔○ Reformist not revolutionary

○ Equality of women can achieved through legal means and social reform

Ex: write more bills and elect the right people

○ Men and women are essentially the same, with the same capabilities, and the same rights

○ Women should not have to stick to prescribed gender roles

○ Women deserve equal education. Without it, equality can not be achieved. All must must be educated
as to the value of gender equality. The oppression of women we, end when society is educated about
how society suffer from it.

○ If men can understand how they will benefit from gender equality, they will support gender equality.
Sexism is a product of ignorance.

○ Women ought to be free to live autonomous lives and make their own choices, including reproductive
choices , the choice to work, the choice to stay at home, etc...

○ Choice is a key word in liberal feminism

If laws are passed to ensure gender equality, gender equality will be ensured



Past/ Current Concerns -✔✔✔Suffrage

Equal rights amendment (era)

Title IX

Equal pay act

Reproductive rights

Domestic violence/sexual assault



Problems -✔✔✔○ Still largely androcentric. In focusing in proving that women can do everything that
men do as a way to demand equality, they imply that equality would not be deserved unless this were
so, and that what men traditionally do is inherently more stable than what women traditionally do. They
also make it seem women still need men's permission for feminism to exist.
