Typology of feminism

[altariel]

So, in undergraduate textbooks and so on, you tend to see feminism taught as being one of "three types": liberal feminism, socialist feminism, radical feminism. Does anyone have any idea where this typology came from? Rough date, origin(ator), etc.?

I think it all depends on the question whether or not you have an analytical mind. Me, I don't and all that dissecting and analyzing always seemed fairly forced to me. I even used to laugh myself silly on literature lessons where we were supposed to analyze poems - I never managed to see the same things in them that the poet supposedly meant.

So, I don't have any problems with other people cut everything into tiny pieces to see how they work. It just never works for me. *shrug*

I think we shouldn't clutter altariel1's journal with this any longer. But if you want to discuss it further, you know where you find me. :)
