The ideology of feminism is often misunderstood with just women and women’s rights. In reality, the ideology behind the concept of feminism is much vast, it not only focuses towards women’s right but also puts equal emphasis on men’s rights and rights of the people belonging to sexual and gender minorities in a patriarchal society. In other words, feminism struggles amount for equality among all sexes and genders equally. Feminism is not about only women, but about understanding the ways in which people are produced, fashioned and inserted into a patriarchal society as proper “men” and “women”. Therefore, feminism is nothing but a fight against discrimination and violence inflicted on the bodies belonging to the world who are forced to conform to the social norms and traditions of a patriarchal society. In other words, feminism as a social movement aims at the removal of all discriminations against women and minorities in terms of their rights, opportunities, development, growth, etc. The philosophy of equality and equal status amongst all being is called feminism. Simply put, feminism inquires into the causes of sufferings, discriminations, and deprivations of women and minorities, and attempts to correct them or take necessary measures for restoring their due share in power, prestige, respect and wealth in the society. Patriarchy means the rule of the patriarch. In other words, it means the “rule of the men (father, brother, husband, etc.). Patriarchy is a social system which is based on the premise that the male is superior than the female, as a result, the former shall rule over the latter. Simply put, it is the authority of the male head/males to head the family, society, etc. It means male domination is general, it includes domination of men over women in domestic, economic, political, etc. spheres of life. Feminists against Patriarchy: According to Sylvia Walby in her work, Theorising Patriarchy, patriarchy is more than just a term, she writes, “Patriarchy is a system of social structures and practices in which men dominate, oppress and exploit women.” She explains patriarchy as a system because it helps feminists reject the notion of biological determinism which has been extensively used by the Western philosophers. Biological determinism asserts that men and women are naturally different because of the difference in their biology. As a result both of them get different roles to play in the society, they have different places assigned to them on the premise of their roles due to which their behaviour varies. Biological determinism ties gender necessarily with sex and fixes both the notions as naturally coextensive in nature. For instance, the body of a man is solidly built because of which the outside world belongs to him, he becomes a hunter, a provider, protector and his behaviour is masculine in the sense that he is aggressive, competitive, non-emotional, active, etc. On the other hand, the body of a woman is regarded as weak because of which she is limited to the household and her behaviour is shy, emotional, passive, loving, caring, etc. Patriarchy practices this popular model for understanding the gender-sex relation within men and women in the society asserting masculinity as a natural outcome of male body and femininity as a natural outcome of female body.
