Gender criticism

The relationship between feminist and gender criticism is, in fact, complex; the two approaches are certainly not polar opposites but, rather, exist along a variety of attitudes toward sex, sexuality, gender, and language.Feminist criticism became a dominant force in all over the world, when feminist theory more broadly conceived was applied to linguistic and literary matters. Feminist literary criticism has developed and diversified in a number of ways and is now characterized by a global perspective. Many observers have argued that feminist criticism is by definition gender criticism because of its focus on the feminine gender.
