I see. I thought what your describing is feminism generally as a whole, and the different types boil down to why they exist and how they can be removed. Radical being "uh, MEN!" pretty much. Marxist Feminists because the exploitation by the upper class creates not only exploitation of working class females via typical inter-class exploitation but also because the stressed out male takes it out on the female. Liberal feminists because current policies in place allow the exploitation to exists, no one really likes it, and by altering how government policy works it can get rid of the exploitation. Black feminists combine the sexism they face by exploitation by males, but also talks about the racism they are faced in their exploitation. Dual-system feminism talks about how they combine the radical feminists view that men are built to exploit females, and the marxist view that the current currency system encourages exploitation by the upper class to the lower class (I can't spell the correct terms, sorry).Bruce said:
I thought what makes it somewhat radical is the rather extreme nature of the view that females are better than males. In the same way radical religious people tend to be terrorists.
I'll have to actually keep in mind your interpretation, at the very least so I don't shoot my mouth off and look like an idiot next time I rant and rave about "UGH, DEM RADICAL FEMINISTS!". Is there a name for the movement that led to things like political lesbianism though? Besides "sexist" anyway.
