3 types:

-> Liberal Feminism- Mainstream feminism, discrimination from equal opportunities eg. salaries, they don't seek revolutionary changes, working within existing structures.

-> Radical Feminism- Societal and patriarchal men ruling the class and women in the subject class. Rape and violence are methods through which men maintain power over women. There are two types of radical feminists: those who are libertarian and aim for androgyny and those who believe in the superiority of the feminine gender/ characteristics.   


-> Marxist Feminism- More sensitive to different women who belong to the ruling class proletarian families, it talks about how women's subordination benefits capitalism, and how they take advantage of stereotypes.
