Topic > Criticisms: liberal, radical and postmodern feminism?

I think Garp and Roberta fall into this category of feminism. Garp was Mr. Mom; she cooked, cleaned and also did household chores. He had no problem with Helen being the bread winner. In the movie, when Garp and Helen were looking for a house, I noticed that Garp included Helen in the decision-making process. When Jenny was boarding the helicopter before being murdered, Garp tried to tell her that she didn't need a father; he grew up well being raised by a woman. Roberta was once a man and not only did she put herself in the shoes of a woman and became one. Not only was Roberta once a man, but she was also interested in men and no longer in women; she went out with men and told Garp everything. I noticed that there was a scene where Roberta even talked about wanting to have children and that she should have had them when she was a man. Roberta was not disgusted by men like the radicals were and believed in women's equality like a liberal, but she also believed in equality in all areas.
