Feminist Struggles Against Patriarchal Ideology

Feminism is a political and social movement that aims to achieve equality for all genders in terms of their rights, opportunities, and social equality. It is the belief to advocate equal rights and opportunities for all genders. It also involves respecting the identities, knowledge, and strengths of women. Feminism seeks women's equality and justice in every sphere of life. It creates equal opportunities for women to have the same access to the resources that are otherwise freely available to men. The contemporary debate centering around the circumference of feminist discourse has of late been very potent in addressing the issues of certain prejudiced notions in our existing patriarchal structure. This paper attempts to show the ongoing paradox existing in the world of feminism which has thoroughly critiqued the patriarchal culture and has naturalized sexual identities, thereby glorifying man’s supremacy and dominion.
