Feminism on Religion - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 906
Religion/Feminism/Nussbaum: How does feminism relate to religion?
a) secular, humanistic feminism: conceived religion as per se patriarchal and repressive towards women.
Brocker I 907
b) traditionalist feminism: refuses to interfere in any way with (traditionally shaped) life plans of women (and men) and is thus close to (...) cultural relativism approaches. According to Nussbaum, this mindset pays a high price: it even tolerates the trimming of fundamental abilities in the name of religion and ignores the dynamic character of religions(1).
