Abstract

Feminism is a liberation ideology for women since it is premised on the idea that women are treated unfairly because of their sexual identity. Feminism examines the factors that contribute to female oppression. Women’s oppression in Afghanistan is described in this report. The system of masculine oppression of women is termed as patriarchy. Patriarchy is the oppressive structure, according to this understanding. Patriarchy is a phrase that refers to a societal structure and practises in which men dominate, oppress, and exploit women. As a political framework, patriarchy tries to dominate and oppress women, limiting their ability to make decisions about their sexuality, childrearing, mothering, loving, and labouring. This research examines the subjugation of women in Afghanistan during the Taliban regime. Through this study, we can sense the struggle of women in facing the society and to live the day today life.
