Is the feminism concept used about Africa in the process of changing meaning? Has feminism become cult, and is it just fine? There is no correct definition of this, just as there is no uniform definition of feminism. Feminism has always been a combination of many different directions that have in common that they somehow promote women's rights and equality between the sexes.

But there is much disagreement about what it means.

Therefore, many feminists also disagree with each other - we have feminists who are for porn and feminists who are courageous -or feminists who believe that gender is biology and feminists who think they are only socially constructed. Some believe it is anti-feminist to marry and have children, others think it is good feminism to facilitate women to follow traditional gender patterns without getting criticism. So what makes a person more feminist in Africa, and what is a good feminist tradition? On the other hand, one should be careful not to claim that more commercial ventures are not feminist. Africa is perhaps still feminist, but if it makes any difference, we are uncertain, and it is often a problem that comes with increased commercialization.
