Feminist Perspective: What does it mean to you?

A couple days a go I participated In a large group discussion focusing on what the feminists perspective/ approach means at a personal level or what it has taught us to look for. For those of you who are not familiar with this perspective in its simplest for it looks to end oppression for all by asking the hard question or looking deeper into WHY things happen the way they do (in my personal interpretation). I thought it would be interesting to post some of the responses and idea that my peers and I came up with. These response aim to represent what we take away from the approach and can apply to everyday situations

The Feminist approach means:
-Agency
- Raise awareness
-Asking the hard questions
- Understand diversity
-Strive for equality
-Power/Empowerment
-Confidence
-Meeting women's needs and understanding our differences
-Social construction of gender and gender roles
-Access to information
-Choice
-Challenging traditional values

What does the feminist approach/perspective mean to you?
