Describe: Sexuality Heteronormativity Interpersonal discrimination
Modern feminism, also called third-wave feminism, encompasses not just the issues women face in today's world but also focuses on intersectionality. Intersectionality refers to the ways in which the various identities of a person (like race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, etc.) impacts their position in society and the benefits and discriminations they receive because of their identity.
