Roots of Patriarchy and Harmful Cultural Practices
In this chapter, they discuss the concept of cultural practices harmful to women, such as forced marriage and female genital mutilation. They argue that these practices are not specific to any one culture, but are rooted in patriarchy. They emphasize the importance of defining feminism to prevent anti-feminists from distorting its meaning, and assert that feminism should be an anti-oppressive movement that centers women and girls.
