“In childhood, a woman should be under her father’s control, in youth under her husband’s and when her husband is dead, under her sons, she should not have independence….” (Buhler, 1992). The term “Feminism” comes from French and has its origin from the Latin word ‘femina’ meaning ‘woman’, and thereby, it refers to the advocacy of woman’s rights seeking to remove restrictions that discriminate against women. It relates to the belief that women should have the same social, economic and political rights as men. Feminism has often focused upon what is absent rather than what is present. The word feminist refers to the person who advocates or practices feminism and it assumes a political position. Female is the matter of biology and feminine is a set of culturally defined characteristics.
