Thread: What are the differences between women empowerment and feminism?

Women empowerment is treating women special so that they can feel as being equal to men;not exactlly giving equal rights on everything but giving some special privileges.

Feminism is something more related with competing with men, literally on everything to prove that women are equally capable. Unlike women empowerment here people believe in giving equal opportunities to women.

Discuss the other factors that distinguish both women empowerment and feminism and which should be promoted more.

In my point of view, these two are two different concepts and they should be promote more.
Feminism most commonly advocates the social, political and economic equality between both men and women.
Women empowerment is something which can be done by feminist women.

Thank you for sharing your view Lorraine. Yes,as you told feminist should use women empowerment to promote feminism but shouldn't over do it.
