Parts of her research involved a theoretical orientation of a multidimensional approach to gender and discusses it more in depth in her book Women and Economics. Due to gender roles she believed that women pretended to live a certain life to avoid achieving their full potential living the role of a housewife. This is an example of a neurological theory, as developed by Sigmund Freud, which is cultivated using a psychoanalysis process called conscious and subconscious state of mind. The specific example given would be considered falling under false consciousness instead of the consciousness that helps control our daily lives.Women believed they were only capable of being housewives and refused to think of what they could achieve if they ignored what society was telling them during that time period. Leading the belief that women are viewed as property of their husbands, economically women were still dependent on husbands to provide financial support to themselves and their family. Gilman argued furthermore that the traditional division of labor was not biologically driven, but instead forced upon women based on the structure of society since before the nineteenth century. Women who went against society told them were seen as rebellious so following societies rules was the normal.

Criticism of Feminist Sociology
Feminism has had its fair share of criticism from both men and women. The support for feminist ideas is higher than the set-identification of being a feminist. There is a tendency in media for feminists to be ported negatively. Feminists "are less often associated with day-to-day work/leisure activities of regular women." Feminists have a negative portrayal because men and women belief they are trying to place women at the top of everything.

There are feminists such as Jean Bethke Elshtain, Daphne Patai, and Camille Paglia who oppose certain aspects of feminism. They are all opposed to the elevation of woman's interests above men's because it is the opposite of what feminism stands for. They also believe radical feminism is harmful to men and women because it pits both groups against each other. Daphne Patai argues the term "anti-feminist" is used as a way to push away feminism in academic debates.

Anti-feminism
Main article: Antifeminism

Anti-feminism is opposition to feminism in some or all of its forms.

Anti-feminism has been around since the 19th century and was primarily focused on the opposition of woman suffrage. Woman were encouraged to be assigned proper places in the public realm while avoiding other realms such as political spheres altogether. It was later discussed by antifeminists that women did not have a place in institutions of higher education because it was too high of a physical burden for women to handle. There were also arguments against women's right to join labor unions, entry into the labor force, sit on juries, birth control and control of their sexuality.
