Marxist Feminism is a culturally revolutionary, economically left wing ideology who focuses on women's emancipation, gender equality, intersectionality, and the liberation of women through feminism and socialism.

Most of the times, she is depicted as an Authoritarian Leftist, even though there are also non-Authoritarian types.

History

Beliefs

Marxist Feminism believes that the oppression of women is directly caused and reinforced by Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Capitalism in order to increase the exploitation of the working class. According to Marxist Feminists, Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Patriarchy allows Capitalists to both keep female workers underpaid by threatening to replace them with "better working" men, as well as also more exploit male workers by threatening to replace them with "less demanding" women. So, by intentionally putting male and female workers at odds with each other bourgeoisie are preventing the proletariat from uniting against them.

MarxFem also argues that on top of the regular Capitalist exploitation female workers are also additionally exploited by domestic work (the so called "kitchen slavery"). So, in order to reach a true gender equality the burden of housework and caretaking should be taken away from women to collective social services, such as kindergartens, public kitchens, and public laundries.

Additionally, a lot of Marxist Feminists are opposed to family unit and the institution of marriage. According them, family was fundamentally created as a way to secure and reinforce private property rights, and marriage is a form of legalizing the woman's status as a property. As an alternative to family, Marxist Feminism advocates for sexual liberation and Free Love, while making raising children the responsibility of the whole community, rather than individual parents.

In MarxFem's view, one of the ways of achieving her goals is the creation of the special state-backed "Women's Committees", run by dedicated Marxist Feminists. Their role would be to directly promote and defend women's rights on the local and national level; propose and prepare gender equality related laws; and also agitate, educate, organise, and generally help working class women all across the country.

Marxist Feminism despises Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Bourgeois Feminism, saying that female Capitalists are oppressing the working women just as much as the male ones do. It also opposes Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Radical Feminist idea that the social status of women is somehow linked to their innate biological qualities, arguing of it instead being the direct product of the class society.
