 Dear students, in this module, we are going to discuss the feminist perspective that how it treats and deals with the process of social stratification. Feminist theory is a sociological perspective that emphasizes the ways in which gender inequality and patriarchy contribute to the social stratification and oppression. Feminism looks at this stratification process from a specific point of view. From the point of view of feminists, any system of gender equality should be seen in how this system of gender equality is distributed to women and men. In their opinion, this system of gender equality only focuses on gender relationships. In gender relationships, men are always given preference and men are seen on a higher position. In this patriarchal system of gender equality, in this patriarchal system of gender equality, the system of stratification is established in order to keep the man's hagemony in place. According to feminist theory, social stratification is not just based on economic factors but also gender, race and other forms of social differences. The particular focus of feminists is on this point of view that other factors are important but the focus of the stratification process is on gender-based hierarchical distribution of social positions. So, they argue that social class and gender are intertwined with women often experiencing double oppression based on both their gender and their economic status. So, the primary focus is on gender-based hierarchical relationships. In their opinion, women are divided into two parts in this stratified system. First of all, because they are women and men are considered to be inferior to them. Along with this, other factors are also influenced by their inequality. For example, their economic status, their social class or their caste. All these factors are also influenced by their social status. So, it creates an impression or an impact of double oppression. So, in Pakistan, if we talk about the feminist perspective on stratification, they are often associated with the ways in which women are marginalized and excluded from the important social, economic and political spheres. Even in Pakistan, if we look at the women's character from the feminist point of view and the relationship between women and men, we can see that this system is based on inequality between men and women. Yes, this inequality leads to injustice. This is the next question. For women, food for thought should be taken for granted without the feminist perspective. You should objectively observe this, because in Pakistan, the women's experience is the same as the feminist perspective claims.
