== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Understanding</span> == Third-Wave Feminism is understood through '''Fluidity''' and '''Positionality'''. '''1. The "Intersection" of Experience (Intersectionality)''': "One Size" does not "Fit All." * A **Black Woman** "Faces" a "Type of Oppression" that is "Not Simply" (Gender + Race). * It is a **"New, Intersecting Form."** * (See Article 560). If a "Feminist Movement" "Only" "Speaks" for "White Women," it "Leaves Out" the **"Most Vulnerable."** * "Justice" must be **"Specific."** '''2. The "Performance" of Self (Gender Performativity)''': "Doing" instead of "Being." * **Judith Butler** "Argued" that there is "No Natural Gender." * We "Perform" our gender through **"Speech," "Clothing,"** and **"Body Language."** * Because it is a **"Performance,"** it can be **"Challenged," "Subverted,"** and **"Changed."** * This "Opened the Door" for the **"Transgender and Non-Binary Movement."** * "Identity" is **"Fluid."** '''3. The "Individual" Power (Agency)''': "Choice" is "Revolutionary." * (See Article 635). The "Third Wave" "Argued" that "Empowerment" is "Subjective." * If a woman "Chooses" to "Stay Home" or "Wear Heels," it is not "Automatically" "Oppressive" if it is her **"Choice."** * They "Reclaimed" words like **"Slut"** and **"Bitch"** as "Tools of Power." * It was "Feminism" with **"Attitude."** '''The 'SlutWalk' (2011)'''': A "Global Protest." "Sparked" by a "Police Officer" saying women should "Avoid dressing like sluts" to "Prevent" sexual assault. Women "Marched" in "Revealing Clothes" to "Demand" an "End" to **"Victim Blaming."** It proved that "The Body" remains a "Primary Site of Protest." </div> <div style="background-color: #8B0000; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
