PigInsideAHuman 1 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 There are several types of feminist movements. Gaga is a third wave feminist. Third-wave feminism seeks to challenge or avoid what it deems the second wave's essentialist definitions of femininity, which often assumed a universal female identity that over-emphasized the experiences of upper-middle-class white women. The shift from second wave feminism came about with many of the legal and institutional rights that were extended to women. In addition to these institutional gains, third-wave feminists believed there needed to be further changes in stereotypes of women and in the media portrayals of women as well as in the language that has been used to define women. Therefore, third-wave ideology focuses on a more post-structuralist interpretation of gender and s-xuality.[3] In "Deconstructing Equality-versus-Difference: Or, the Uses of Poststructuralist Theory for Feminism," Joan W. Scott describes how language has been used as a way to understand the world, however, "post-structuralists insist that words and texts have no fixed or intrinsic meanings, that there is no transparent or self-evident relationship between them and either ideas or things, no basic or ultimate correspondence between language and the world"[4] Thus, while language has been used to create binaries (such as male/female), post-structuralists see these binaries as artificial constructs created to maintain the power of dominant groups Third-wave theory usually incorporates elements of queer theory; anti-racism and women-of-color consciousness; womanism; girl power; post-colonial theory; postmodernism; transnationalism; cyberfeminism; ecofeminism; individualist feminism; new feminist theory, transgender politics, and a rejection of the gender binary. Also considered part of the third wave is s-x-positivity, a celebration of s-xuality as a positive aspect of life, with broader definitions of what s-x means and what oppression and empowerment may imply in the context of s-x. For example, many third-wave feminists have reconsidered the opposition to ****ography and s-x work of the second wave, and challenge existing beliefs that participants in ****ography and s-x work are always being exploited.

Weasel 12,525 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 That doesn't mean she can't be a feminist I mean typical men culture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiberianBreaks 53 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I guess she is one, but she said confusing things. She seems to think that feminists want to be superior to men, which is not true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gagz 2,579 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yes, she is clearly a feminist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash 11 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 not really. that statement annoyed me tbh What's wrong with her saying "don't tell your man what to do"? She didn't say be subservient and let him boss you around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redstreak 6,653 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 If it works for her and she enjoys it, then good for her, that's her business. I doubt she's against equality. Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gagz 2,579 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I refuse to answer that just to read an article thats probably untrue anyways. I wasn't asked this And the article is neutral. It's just quoted from her about feminism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
