Question

Why might a third-wave feminist be annoyed with members of the second wave for talking about how women needed access to education and careers, like those available to men, that would give their lives meaning?

Answer 1

Answer:

• The second wave feminism had the idea that women should find their identity and happiness through their family, husbands and children.

• They were more focused in women’s equality and identity. But the third wave feminism contradicts the thoughts, they are more concerned about the different factors like class, religion, gender and ethnicity which plays a vital role in feminism.

• The third wave feminism examines the cause in accordance to the women’s lives on universal basis.

• These both have conflicts because, third wave existed to solve the failures in second wave.
