Religion and Women
Woman have been subjected to patriarchal views and influences in many aspects of life, even the so-called divine ones. Yes, it is evident that religion is androcentric at times. My focus upon this matter is through the religion of Islam and through the religion of Buddhism. I delve into the misogynist aspects of the religion and point of certain characteristics which could be focal points for feminists to construct their arguments against patriarchal establishments.
a few key points:
1- Koran's interpretations.
2- Muhammad's family.
3- "Muslimwoman" and Feminist writers.
4- Buddhist's apparent indifference.
5- Yet, being a woman is more unfortunate and they're treated unequally.
