Abstract
Feminism is always misinterpreted and misunderstood ,particularly in the non
western countries which ultimately damage the cause of women’s rights. In Pakistan,
there exist strong misconceptions regarding feminist beliefs and behaviors;
advocating for equality is equated with believing in one's superiority over males.
Additionally, It is asserted that feminism lacks an ethical and political basis since it is
not an indigenous phenomenon, these widely held beliefs have damaged the feminist
moment .The aim of the present study was to understand the students perspective
about feminism to evaluate how much understanding prevails among students and
what they really think feminism is .For the present study qualitative research design
was used and data was collected from BS Students studying in a private sector
university of Lahore .Purposive sampling technique was used to collect the data from
15 students enrolled in the different departments of Social Sciences and natural
sciences.
