	Radical feminism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Radical feminists in Western society believe that their society is an oppressive patriarchy that primarily oppresses women.
		This feminism was truly radical in both a political sense, and in the sense of seeking the root cause of the oppression of women.
		Other critics of radical feminism from the political left, including socialist feminists, strongly disagree with the radical feminist position that the oppression of women is fundamental to all other forms of oppression; these critics hold that issues of race and of class are as important or more important than issues about gender.

		According to radical feminist's interpretation of Marxist theory, the family is the root cause of oppression.
		The Radicalized Feminist is filled with rage against "patriarchy" which is Fatherhood writ large, because she is filled with rage against her own father and afraid to express it.
		Radical Feminism is a psychological disorder (psyche is the Greek for soul) because unforgiveness is a disorder of the soul.

		Second: the radical feminist program here outlined is not terribly different from that of the anarchists; while the anarchists opposed governmental discrimination against women, they certainly did not think that the obstacles facing women were limited to this.
		That is not to deny that radical feminists often describe those problems in exaggerated and hysterical terms (e.g., the claim that all heterosexual intercourse is rape).
		To attack radical feminist concerns merely because they are often advanced in an extremist fashion is to ignore (and incidentally alienate) all those radical feminists who advance the same concerns in a more reasonable fashion.

		She said all radical feminists agree that "women’s oppression is widespread and that the problem is rooted too deeply to be removed by either individual action or by social change such as class or private property reform" (p.
		Some radical feminists, therefore, have proposed the need for women to form their own societies apart from men so that they would have complete control over their reproductive processes -- hence ridding society of patriarchy forever.
		The socialist feminist framework, she concluded, is the most comprehensive theory among the three and the one that future researchers should concentrate on for further development.

		In fact, such radical feminists have only shown disdain and contempt for women who speak out against abortion such as Pat Goltz and Cathy Callaghan, who formed Feminists for Life after Goltz was expelled from her local NOW chapter for daring to declare that abortion violated original feminist principles and trying to distribute pro-life literature.
		Simply put, radical feminists pretend to be speaking for all women when they are only speaking for radical feminists, an extremist corruption of original feminism which bullies through its agenda through political, social and media flmail and deception as facilitated by its liberal media partners.
		Feminist professor Eva Lundgren of Sweden was once reprimanded for "serious problems in her research" finding that bands of male Satanists had ritually murdered hundreds of Sweden's infants and that half of Swedish women were victims of male violence.

	Feminists Against Women: The New Reproductive Technologies, Part One
		It is important, therefore, to distinguish radical feminist objections to the NRTs both from those with valid medi- cal reservations and from those who fear that medical procedures may be imposed upon women or unreasonably denied to them.
		Radical feminists are not concerned with valid testing of the NRTs or whether certain women seem to want them; these fac- tors are irrelevant.
		To this, radical feminists reply that technology and the free market are not mere influences; they are forms of violence, like guns pressed against the temples of women.

	Calling all radical feminists and lesbian feminists Off Our Backs - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Radical feminists and lesbian feminists have always made people angry because, although we certainly don't all agree, we dare to have critical ideas about western society's great idols: sex and capitalist consumerism (not to mention the links between the two).
		However, I can see how some women who have become feminists in the past decade and whose main introduction to radical feminist writing is the work of Catharine MacKinnon and Andrea Dworkin could get the impression that all radical feminists are anti-sex.
		I am sure that many lesbians who are not radical are also not a bit mercenary, but I also suspect that one of the reasons the radicals are not so popular is that we openly scorn these criteria.

	Radical Feminists and Their War Against Society
		Radical feminists do lie and suppress the truth, as do other authoritarian individuals, regimes, and movements.

	Prof. Nunziato - Gender Equality (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Radical feminists believe that their liberal counterparts' call for equal treatment of the sexes would be efficacious only in an ideal world, and that their own approach attempts to bring about justice for women given a less than ideal world by addressing the fact that women are in an inferior starting position to men.
		[FN106] Radical feminists, however, criticize this move and argue that the liberal antidiscrimination principle is least well‑suited to achieve equality for women in the area of pregnancy discrimination, and that special treatment of pregnancy is necessary.
		Given the radical feminist critique, which identifies areas in our less than ideal world in which men tend to be psychologically, financially, sexually, and athletically dominant, the informed gender‑neutral approach calls for the crafting of gender‑neutral legislation and doctrines to remedy these types of subordination ‑‑ regardless of the gender of the subordinated party.

	Libertarian Feminism: Can This Marriage Be Saved?: Roderick Long and Charles Johnson (2005) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		First, radical feminist analysis is not “based on biology.” On the contrary, a central theme of radical feminism has been precisely that gender differences are socially constructed, and that women are constituted as a politically relevant class by social institutions, practices, and imputed meanings, not by pre-social biological facts beyond anyone’s control.
		Sciabarra’s radical libertarian critique of acontextual method and Archimedean utopian planning, in both statist and libertarian thought, might be profitably compared with (among others) Catharine MacKinnon’s radical feminist critique of the ideal of “objectivity” (i.e., unsituated knowledge without a point of view) and Archimedean legal proceduralism in patriarchal liberalism.
		The name “Radical Menace” is made by analogy to the “Red Menace” strategy used to delegitimize organized opposition to the Cold War, and to the “Lavender Menace” controversy within the feminist movement in 1970—one of the original historical examples of the mechanisms of Radical Menace politics within the feminist movement.

	Radical Femininity - Jean Zampino
		The very nature of her physical body points to the fact that she is designed to be a "receiver" and a "responder." And, although feminists refuse to acknowledge this fact, woman has less physical strength and endurance than man. In this regard she is the weaker sex.
		Radical femininity means walking in this truth, regardless of past sins we have committed or abuses we have sustained; it means rising up in the forgiveness and mercy of God, and by His grace, walking forward in purity and righteousness.
		Walking in radical femininity means focusing on our relationship with God, being attentive to the formation of our own souls, and building our own moral character so that we can rightly influence others and bring life to our culture of death.

	Radical Feminism: The Bad Girls
		Responsible for much of the progress of the second wave of feminism, radical feminists have a volatile relationship with society.
		And even as society attempts to convince women that their domain is the home and child rearing, women often do not retain the right to decide how the children are raised, disciplined and schooled.
		These are crucial decisions often held and made by the husband and father, a reminder to women of their "second in command" position (Radical Feminist Philosophy).

	Marxist roots of radical feminism
		These radical feminist organizations promise equality for women, but in truth they are more interested in promoting a socialist/Marxist agenda which includes abortion and contraception on demand, hatred for the traditional family, and particularly venomous hatred for the Catholic Church and her moral teachings.
		Daphne Patai and Noretta Koertge affirm that today’s radical feminism is:
		It bids to be a totalizing scheme resting on a grand theory, one that is as all-inclusive as Marxism, as assured of its ability to unmask hidden meanings as Freudian psychology, and as fervent in its condemnation of apostates as evangelical fundamentalism.

		But feminists learned that goddess worship was not worship of an external deity; it was, in essence, worship of oneself.
		Rejecting masculine pronouns as limiting one's understanding of who God is, and citing His “feminine” characteristics, feminists feel justified in calling God “She” or “Mother.” And although feminists claim that using female as well as male pronouns to address God has de--sexualized Him, in effect, the opposite has occurred.

		Yet the President's initiative is opposed by radical feminists who seek to undermine what they call the "patriarchal family."

		"Only by understanding the deep and unmovable antipathy that radical feminists harbor toward free exchange and traditional sex is it possible to sound the near-bottomless depths of their hatred for pornography, which combines both." In other words, radical feminists are not "pro-choice," although they are so dubbed in connection with abortion.
