Individualist feminism is a blanket term for different forms of Individualist Feminist ideas. This take on feminism was originally expressed in anti-capitalist publications such as ''Liberty'' , and by individualists highly critical of capitalism such as Voltairine De Cleyre and Ezra Heywood . However, today it is often associated with a Minarchist or even Anarcho-capitalist perspective, due in large part to the prominent advocacy of Wendy McElroy . A core principle of individualist feminism is that all human beings have a Moral and / or Legal claim to their own persons and property, not to any sort of Affirmative Action policies or privileges. In most parts of Europe it is viewed as Postmodern Feminism because of its pluralistic view of female nature. While other schools often stress that women in general are living under similar circumstances, individualist feminists stress that all women are unique and have unique goals. INDIVIDUALIST FEMINISM CONTRA OTHER FEMINISMS Individualist feminists have applied the label Gender Feminism to describe feminists they see as holding that an animosity exists between genders and calling for radical measures to intervene in gender relations. Thus individualist feminism is distinct from both mainstream and Radical Feminist movement. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS
