What feminist movements do you think are exclusionary of different forms of gender and sexuality?​

How far to you think gender and/or sexuality can disprivilege you?​

Do you think that gender and sexuality intersect in oppression? How so?

Race

Disability

Gender and Sexuality

bell hooks

Womanism: born form the exclusion of black feminists in the white-centric 'mainstream' feminism. ​ Whlist focusing on the unique experiences, struggles and needs of women of colour. ​It also critically addresses the dynamics of the conflictbetween the mainstream feminist and the Black feminist movement.​

Privilege

Western societies can be cis and heteronormative, and this is also present in some feminist thinking. There has been some engagement with re-thinking women’s gender roles and sexuality within the 2nd and 3rd waves but thought is often binarist or focusses on lesbianism.​

Class

  • A person with a disability is someone with a physical or mental impairment which has a long-term, adverse effect on day-to-day life.
  • Disability can be linked to mental and/or physical health conditions
  • Disability isn’t always “visible”
  • Mainstream feminism has been criticised for overlooking issues linked to disability
  • Able-bodied privilege is one of the most unrecognizable forms of privilege in society
  • Both individual and structural acts of discrimination against people with disabilities is known as ‘ableism’
  • It is important to consider how (dis)ability intersects with issues such as race, class or gender

Examples

Current thinking however is leaning towards an open and multifaceted view of multiple/non-binary genders and polysexualities.

Can you think of any other racially based oppressions/issues?​

Do you think you should be allowed to voice opinions on racial issues that don’t effect you directly?​

If womanism was born as a form of feminism for black women, do you think other non-white races need their own movement?

Cultural Appropriation: ​

Fetishisation & exoticisation of women of colour

White western beauty standards imposed upon WOC

Colonialisation – trickle-down effect of exportation of western culture upon previously colonized countries. ​

privilege is the set of unearned advantages a person receives for some trait that they possess or are perceived to possess

Having particular privileges leads to having more space in society in order to be heard and listened to.

Beverly Skeggs

Previous mainstream feminist movements have come from a predominantly middle class point of view, and thus not accommodating for class based issues

such as:

access to education,

health,

socialisation,

accents,

geography,

taste,

How can feminist spaces be more inclusive for people with disabilities?

Can you think of any privileges you have in your life?​

Why do you think it’s important to acknowledge privilege?​

How do you think you can check your privilege(s)?​

employment,

sex work,

working class culture,

gender stereotypes,

sexuality,

disabilities,

Is it always bad to take advantage of your privilege(s)?​

Do you think you can use your disprivilege(s) to your advantage?

Can you think of any examples where class can be a barrier within your own or others lives?​

Do you think class is a uniquely British issue (within the context of feminism)?​

In what ways does feminist thinking need to adapt to class?​

What is Intersectionality?

Geography

Feminism and Intersectionality

Disclaimer

Intersectionality is used to describe the ways in which oppressive institutions are interconnected and cannot be examined separately from one another.​

It is important when discussing feminism not to assume that all women are white, straight, cisgender, able-bodied, middle class, educated… or anything else.​

UEAFS cannot guarantee that this will be a safe space. Please respect others around you and use appropriate language. If at any point you feel uncomfortable and wish to leave, please do so.

Often mainstream feminist thought is contrained within western boundaries i.e. Eurocentric/Americentric. Women living in countries all over the world face different and varied oppressions due to their geography. ​

Issues such as:

FGM,

lack of access to education and healthcare,

Kimberle Crenshaw 1989

Intersectionality and the wage gap in the US

Why do you think intersectionality was needed in feminist thought?​

Why could intersectionality be important to you? ​

How do you think intersectionality could be applied to your feminist thinking/life?

poverty,

religion,

gendered violence,

labour,

trafficking.

Do you think that feminist thought considers international issues?​

How do you think Western feminist thought can integrate a more international outlook?​

Is it the role of western feminism to get involved in issues involving women in other countries?​

Feminism and Intersectionality

Intersectionality teaches us that ALL these issues and more effect the way we are treated in society. You are not effected in isolation by issues, but instead uniquely according to how each oppression intersects.
