Abstract

One brand of women’s rights movement is aggressive, strident anti-male feminism that essentialises men as oppressors and women as oppressed. Such simplistic Manichaean divisions of human beings risk fostering gender hostility, which may not be helpful in establishing gender justice. In Rokeya’s feminist writing, it is not male versus female — it is rationality versus irrationality; justice versus injustice. Rokeya is far removed from a feminism that verges on anti-male prejudice.
