As the practitioners of all critical theories do, feminist critics hold many different opinions on all of the issues their discipline examines. Broadly defined, feminist theory often deploys critical theory in analyzing interlocking systems of power and experience of women (Kagan ed al, 2009). Feminist criticism examines the ways in which literature (and other cultural productions) reinforces or undermines the economic, political, social, and psychological oppression of women (Ginzberg, 1995; Tyson, 2006). Feminists demonstrate how gender bias infected disciplines from philosophy to literary study and was embedded in texts ranging from classics of the canon to the mundane artifacts of popular culture (Kellner, 2003). They are committed to conducting studies that challenge power and oppression and produce research that is useful and contributes to social justice. Bringing a new perspective to the healthcare sciences, they work with their historical and philosophical roots in logical positivism and objectivity.
