Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Postmodern feminists have criticized classic feminist theories for being too narrow and ignoring issues of diversity and the complexity of sexism. They have offered new theoretical perspectives that take into account social context in understanding gender issues. Radical feminists focus on the patriarchal structures of society, socialist feminists on the intersection of gender and class, liberal feminists on equal rights and opportunities, and cultural feminists on the positive aspects of femininity. However, none of these groups have been as focused on issues of diversity and the complexity of sexism as postmodern feminists.
