Abstract

It is undoubtedly an affirmed fact that the women as the ‘other’ and a species biologically different from the male are unlike each other in their nature and function. The new generation of French feminist theorists has turned away entirely from Beauvoir’s existentialist feminism. Moving away from Beauvoir’s liberal desire for equality with men, these feminists as the argument goes have emphasized difference, “Extolling women’s right to cherish their specifically female values, they reject ‘equality’ as a covert attempt to force women to become like men”
