Meaning of feminismo radical




furoya

feminismo radical
  8

It is precisely a 'radical feminism', but although the phrase seems to have an obvious meaning, the contribution of colleague Sergio M is very pertinent since the adjective is usually interpreted according to the radical anglicism that is more related to intolerance and violence (which in Spanish translates as "radicalized") and not as "supporter of the original movement, of its ideological roots." See radical feminist.

  




Sergio M

Probably in the collective imagination, mainly macho, many imagine a woman or a group of women who are aggressive, who hate men or who seek the supremacy of women. Nothing could be further from the truth. Radical feminism began in the 1960s and 1970s and, as Celia Amorós explains, adheres to the Marxist sense of "radical," which means taking things by the root, i.e., going to the root of oppression.
