What is Buddhist Feminism? This book examines reasons why Buddhism
and feminism may seem to be incompatible, and shows that Buddhist
and feminist philosophies can work together to challenge
patriarchal structures. Current scholarship usually compares
Buddhism and feminism to judge their compatibility, rather than
describing a Buddhist Feminist perspective or method. Sokthan Yeng
instead looks for a pattern that connects Buddhist and feminist
traditions. In particular, she explores possible exchanges between
feminist and Buddhist philosophies which highlight how they each
contribute to a more nuanced understanding of anger. Yeng explores
how a Buddhist feminist approach would allow women's anger to be
transformed from that which is outside the bounds of philosophy
into that which contributes to philosophical discourse in the East
and West, and between the two.
