Cooling Out

Cooling Out - On the Paradox of Feminism examines the situation of women and the role of feminism today. While many demands made by the feminist movement have clearly been met, the term Feminism has come to be negatively connoted. It seems as if the women´s movement has become a victim of its own success and has brought about its own demise, as women confronted with issues such as equitable participation in education and employment don´t actually seem to notice the areas in which they are still substantially disadvantaged. How can a political or social movement create so many positive changes, while simultaneously developing negative connotations? Such is the paradoxe of feminism.
