User:Tlw777/Feminist Phenomenology

Overview
Feminist phenomenology originated with Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex wherein Beauvoir explored how the seeming naturalness of sex differences between men and women actually is based in how women are raised, treated, and praised in society. The idea that gender is a constituted rather than a natural thing is a shared theme in feminist phenomenology. What this means varies widely between theorists like Judith Butler, Susan Bordo, Gail Weiss, Johanna Oksala, and Hannah Arendt.
