 Buffy the Patriarchy Slayer
Joyce was the quintessential second wave feminist - she came of age in the 1960s, participated in the civil and women's rights movements, worked fulltime and divorced Buffy's father.
She knew nothing of Buffy's powers as a slayer until well into the third season, misreading her difficulties with school as laziness or a lack of focus rather than as a result of unconventional work."
What you see below are, in my opinion, excerpts of the most important parts of the articles.

 Elsie Clews Parsons, The Journal of a Feminist
Born November 27, 1875, in New York City, Elsie Clews Parsons was the eldest of three children and the only daughter of Henry Clews, the son of a Staffordshire potter who had emigrated to the U.S. and founded a New York bank, and Lucy Madison Worthington, a descendent of President James Madison.
Parsons's first major publication was her 1906 study, The Family, which grew out of her lectures at Columbia University.
Prepared by Professor Catherine Lavender for History 182 (Women's History and Feminist Theory), The Department of History, The College of Staten Island of The City University of New York.

 Feminist Aesthetics
While the intricacies of her difficult philosophy are opaque and sometimes difficult to pin down, her suggestive ideas have furnished inspiration for feminists artists from painters (such as Nancy Spero) to performance artists (such as Joanna Frueh).
Rediscovery of the work of women of the past was one of the major efforts of feminist scholars during second-wave feminism, a period that also saw the founding of women's studies programs at many colleges and universities in North America and Europe.
This binary has been especially investigated by feminist political theorists but also has considerable significance for philosophy of art (Pollock 1988).

 Feminist Ethics
Similarly, while U.S. feminists debate the extent to which contraceptives ought to be funded by the government or distributed in public schools, women in many Asian and African countries have no access to contraception or family planning services from any source.
Liberal feminists charge that the main cause of female subordination is a set of informal rules and formal laws that block women's entrance and/or success in the public world.
In addition to the non-feminist criticisms that have been raised against Gilligan, several feminist criticisms have been directed against her work.

This may be the first time you have considered these principles.
The right to choose is integral to the feminist pursuit of social, legal, political, economic and cultural equality for women.
Whether we are emerging organizations or new members of an established group, reflecting on our principles, practices and processes can assist in connecting the meaning of feminism to our equality-seeking mandate.

 ArtLex on Feminism and Feminist Art
This has been most prominent in the United States, Britain, and Germany, although there are numerous precursors to the movement, and it has spread to many other cultures since the 1970s.
Often, on the basis of appearance alone, their work could not be identified as woman-made.Several countercultural movements arose simultaneously with feminism in the 1960s.
Feminists point out that throughout most of recorded history males have imposed patriarchal (father-centered) social systems (in which they have dominated females).

 Kathryn Jean Lopez on The Passion of Christ & Feminism on National Review Online
With the gentlest touch, Jesus gives his mother strength, even though he's a bloody mess in indescribable pain-all of which he bears with the kind of grace only divinity can provide.
I don't think many self-described feminists would agree, but there is something unique about women, and Gibson's movie captures it perfectly in Mary, Mary Magdalene, Veronica (who voluntarily wipes Christ's face along his arduous road to Calvary), and Claudia.
This understanding of femininity cannot be missed — and should be noted and valued.

 Feminism, Feminists, and Gender
Four members of the Alabama State Textbook Committe (1983)--presumably the same who objected to The Diary of Anne Frank --called for the rejection of this work because it propagates feminist views.
The opinions expressed in the outside resources do not necessarily reflect those of the livejournal feminist community.
This impression is really from a bit more of the conversation, but I stopped at the line above, because it also seems to me that whenever people hear that I am a feminist, they assume I'm sort of power-hungry man-hater.

Feminists differ widely in their accounts of the origins of patriarchy, their analyses of its most common consequences, and their concrete proposals for overcoming it, but all share in the recognition that the subordination of women to men in our culture is indefensible and eliminable.
