Implications of Liberal Feminism for Pakistani Society

Abstract

This research aims to understand liberal feminism, its outcomes and implications. Scholars have emphasized that liberal feminism revolves around the prevalent inequality regarding those women who are marginalized and dejected. Such disparity is causing havoc in society and sexual abuse is the outcome and result of these discrepancies. Pakistani society has received a strong impact of such inequality yet some paradoxical situations exist. On one hand, women consider that they are being rejected and not treated equally whereas other groups of researchers reject this notion. Despite this oscillating situation, liberal feminism appears to hold a very significant socio-political impact on Pakistani society.
