SORU:

When and how did the “second wave” of feminism start?


CEVAP:

The “second wave” of feminism started in the latter part of the 20th century (1960s and 1980s); and it advocated not only for the guarantee of political rights but also for the strengthening of women’s cultural and political presence in
societies. The second wave primarily focused on issues such as the legal equality between men and women, women’s liberation movements with the theme of women liberation, inequalities in the work place, as well as family and reproduct-ive rights (Becky, 2002: 347). The second wave of feminism is considered to be important in the sense that it aimed to shed light on the internalizing disorders attributable to the societal roles and modalities undertaken by women purely based on the biological differences they feature (Doğan and Özlük, 2016: 57).
