Psychosocial Perspectives in Gender

The subject with which the word 'ism' is associated, carries with it the seeds of an idea, contemplation, revolution, struggle and movement. As the seed of this 'law' grows, it grows, in the same way different types of thoughts and many viewpoints start coming forward in relation to the law. Then there is a period of agreement and disagreement. There is a clash in the views of different persons. From this duality of thought, a constructive and positive side of 'ism' emerges, in which the interest of most of the people of the society is included. Undoubtedly, feminism, being done in the interest of women, is such a movement, which has spread all over the world due to various reasons. Exploitation, oppression and oppression of women is present in more or less form in all the countries. Explaining feminism, Brinda Karat writes: "Feminism and the women's liberation movement are two different things.

Feminism is an ideology, on the basis of which efforts are made for the liberation of women. It has many forms, different trends, which are defined in different forms from time to time. For example, a feminism is one which believes that there is a contradiction between every man and every woman, which is the most important contradiction in the social contradiction. To some, this is basic feminism. The second is feminism - socialist feminism, which believes in the socialist system, but which believes that in the ideology of socialism, more importance is given to class, while there is a need to expose more of the exploitation on being a woman. .

1. Gender is a social construct.

2. In the patriarchal system, since the codes of conduct are made by men, their attitude towards men is biased in comparison to women. Equal opportunities for development are also given to women 'kindly'. 

3. Gender exploitation free society of the future Women's field of work, love, fertility, etc. and the development of 'independent personality' of their language and craft will prove to be very decisive in forging it. Feminism thus has two responsibilities, first, to attack gender stereotypes and second, to develop a correct understanding of the female mind and body.

The word 'argument' carries with it the ideology of agreeing and disagreeing with the subject. Scholars have their own camps in the country and abroad. They see, examine, analyze each subject under a special principle and ideology. But each theory also sows new seeds on the soil of its ideas, which later take the form of a sect or school.
