Feminist Theory
Feminist theory is a major branch of theory within sociology that is distinctive for how its creators
shift their analytic lens, assumptions, and topical focus away from the male viewpoint and
experience. In doing so, feminist theory shines light on social problems, trends, and issues that are
otherwise overlooked or misidentified by the historically dominant male perspective within social
theory. Key areas of focus within feminist theory include discrimination and exclusion on the basis of
sex and gender, objectification, structural and economic inequality, power and oppression, and
gender roles and stereotypes, among others.
