events faced by women which are caused by gendered practices.

to womens problem, then you are a feminist! 3

Historically, patriarchal
system and gendered
social order has op-
pressed women for a
long time. This realiza-
tion that women are in
disadvantaged in many
aspects of their lives
trigger the rise of femi-
nism. Feminism exists
because women want
to challenge that no-
tion (Lorber, 2005)

Based on the political goals, feminism is divided in-
to three categories:
1. Gender reform feminisms (liberal, Marxist, so-
cialist, postcolonial)
2. Gender resistance feminism (radical, lesbian, psy-
choanalytic, standpoint)
3. Gender rebellion feminism (multicultural, femi-
nist studies of men, social construction, post-
modern, third-wave)
(Lorber, 2005)
Another category of feminism is based on the time
period:
1. first-wave feminism
2. Second-wave feminism
3. Third-wave feminism
(Lorber, 2005; Weiner, 1994)

The idea of gender resistance feminism
lies on the patriarchal system. This
type of feminism believes that patriar-
chy is really hard to eradicate and
therefore, women should create their
own space to be able to think and act
freely.
