Materialistic feminism, also known as economic or Marxist feminism, focuses on the economic aspects of gender inequality and seeks to address the systemic barriers that prevent women from achieving economic empowerment. It analyzes how capitalism and patriarchal structures intersect to perpetuate gender disparities in the workforce, pay, and access to resources. One of the critical principles of materialistic feminism is the recognition that women's unpaid labor, including caregiving, household chores, and emotional support, contributes significantly to the functioning of capitalist economies. However, this labor is often devalued and unrecognized, leading to economic dependence and limited opportunities for women. Materialistic feminism advocates for policies and practices that challenge the gendered division of labor and promote equal access to financial resources and opportunities. This includes initiatives such as pay equity, affordable childcare, parental leave, and flexible work arrangements, which aim to support women's workforce participation while recognizing their caregiving responsibilities
