Content: The focus of social feminism is on the social and economic aspects of patriarchy, rather than on its psychological effects. It advocates for social policies to ensure equal pay and strives toward public support of and responsibility for families. Critiques of social feminism are that its emphasis on the economic basis of women's oppression ignores other manifestations of patriarchy. The Promise of Socialist Feminism

Postmodern Feminism
This type of feminism focuses on how social discourse and language create social assumptions about who women are and how they should be treated. It emphasizes deconstruction, a critical questioning and examination of language and meaning. It is also concerned with the relativity of social understanding. Postmodern feminism argues that "Woman" is not a universal construct and no one can speak for all women. Critiques of postmodern feminism are that it shifts feminist focus from oppressive power relations to social discourse, which may undermine the solidarity and collective social action for political change.
