John Stuart Mill's 1861 call for women's suffrage in The Subjection of Women is a notable exception.[3] In the early 20th Century, Simone de Beauvoir's 1949 work The Second Sex exposed the power dynamics surrounding womanhood and laid the foundation for subsequent feminist theories exposing women's social subjugation. Liberal feminism marks an important approach to feminist politics which was especially pervasive during the first half of the twentieth century. In addition, according to The International Encyclopedia of Ethics, "[L]iberal feminisms of both the past and the present retain some commitment to the distinction between the public and private realms – a distinction [which is the] focus of much critique within feminist political theory."[1] Theorist studying this aspect of feminist political theory question the construction of women as an identity group.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-6764.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-6764.txt
