Synopsis
What one half of the human race wants and the other half dreads - women's absolute equality! Is this a fair view of feminism? For some, the word "feminism" itself is enough to conjure up the fearful spectre of gender competition, the "sex war" and man-hating females. "Feminism for Beginners" cuts through the myths surrounding the subject and provides an incisive account of the women's movement from its suprisingly recent birth in the French Revolution to the worldwide explosion of women's liberation in the 1970s and the conservative backlash of the Reagan and Thatcher 80s. It looks at the achievements of feminism and the challenges still confronting women throughout the world in the 90s. This is a timely guide to the struggle for women's rights - a stormy history of conservative male opposition from the outside and disagreements within the movement.
