Standpoint feminism is a theory that feminist social science should be practiced from the standpoint of women or particular groups of women,[1] as some scholars (e.g. Patricia Hill Collins and Dorothy Smith) say that they are better equipped to understand some aspects of the world. A feminist or women's standpoint epistemology proposes to make women's experiences the point of departure, in addition to, and sometimes instead of men's.[2]
