Opposing Views On The Branches Of Feminism

The branches of feminism ranges from Radical, those who want to uproot and reconstruct what they believe is a male-dominated capitalist hierarchy which suppresses women in-order to obtain an egalitarian society, to Liberal, those who seek legal and political reform in-order to achieve individualistic equality for both men and women, to Conservative, those who shyly believe in small changes toward equality.
