Female Identity in Feminist Writings

About the Book: Female Identity in Feminist Writings revolves around the thought that Feminism is an ideology with a difference. This makes it peculiarly difficult to analyze and criticize the terms usually applied to ideologies. If women were to be truly equal to men then there would be a need for female emancipation within both private and public spheres. Perhaps men or the state should have a greater role in child-rearing realizing women have a greater role in every sphere. Perhaps there should be a wage for the work done by women in the private sphere. Whatever the answer there is agreement among feminists that such divisions are not natural or biological in origin but social and as such can be reformed by social and political change.
