Who is a FEMINAZI?
Feminazi is a term used pejoratively in popular culture to describe either feminists who are perceived as extreme or radical, women who are perceived to seek superiority over men, rather than equality, or in some cases, to describe all feminists.
Who coined the term?
Tom Hazlett first coined the term
In 1992 Rush Limbaugh popularized it
Source: http://womensissues.about.com/
In a 1996 interview, Gloria Steinem criticized Limbaugh’s use of the term feminazi.
“Hitler came to power against the strong feminist movement in Germany, padlocked the family planning clinics, and declared abortion a crime against the state—all views that more closely resemble Rush Limbaugh’s. “
In her book Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions Steinem discusses
the term as “cruel and ahistorical”
repression of feminism under Hitler
many prominent German feminists were forced to flee Nazi Germany while others were killed in concentration camps.
What is Feminism?

Three Waves of Feminism in the US
First Wave: (1830s to 1900s) Equal Rights through voting and contract equality
Second Wave: (1960s to 1980s) Equal Rights through reproductive, workplace, gender, and economic rights
Third Wave: (1980s to present) Continue to fight for the social, legal, political, and economic rights of all women
Therefore, the Goal of Feminism in the Third Wave is:
Gender Equality Through;
Knowledge
Linguistics
Listening
Intersectional Solidarity (women of all colors)
Equality of Opportunity

Feminist Literary Theory
Feminist literary criticism applies the philosophies and perspectives of feminism to the literature we read.
There are many different kinds of feminist literary theory. Some theorists examine the language and symbols that are used and how that language and use of symbols is “gendered.”
Others remind us that men and women write differently and analyze at how the gender of the author affects how literature is written. Many feminist critics look at how the characters, especially the female characters, are portrayed and ask us to consider how the portrayal of female characters “reinforces or undermines sexual stereotypes” (Lynn).
Feminist literary theory also suggests that the gender of the reader often affects our response to a text.
Much feminist literary theory reminds us that the relationship between men and women in society is often unequal and reflects a particular patriarchal ideology.
Feminist theorists invite us to pay particular attention to the patterns of thought, behavior, values, and power in those relationships.
Feminist literary critics remind us that literary values, conventions, and even the production of literature, have themselves been historically shaped by men.
They invite us to consider writings by women, both new and forgotten, and also ask us to consider viewing familiar literature through a feminist perspective. -taken from:

Questions to Consider
Feminist Lens: –
Is the author male or female?
Is the text narrated by a male or female?
What types of roles do women have in the text?
Are the female characters the protagonists or secondary and minor characters?
Do any stereotypical characterizations of women appear?
Questions to Consider
What are the attitudes toward women held by the male characters?
What is the author’s attitude toward women in society?
How does the author’s culture influence his/her attitude?
Is feminine imagery used? If so, what is the significance of such imagery?
Do the female characters speak differently than the male characters?
In your investigation, compare the frequency of speech for the male character to the frequency of speech for the female characters.
