Standpoint feminism is a theory that #feministsocial science should be practiced from the standpoint of women or particular groups of women, 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.


Shame Resilience Theory: A Grounded Theory Study on Women and Shame.

Although shame is one of the most primitive and universal of human emotions, it is often still considered a taboo topic among researchers, practitioners, and clients. This paper presents the empirical foundation for shame resilience theory–-a new theory for understanding shame and its impact on women.

The article describes the major theoretical categories, including acknowledged vulnerability, critical awareness, and mutually empathic relationships, and introduces the concept of “speaking shame.” Practice implications are explored, including the importance of psychoeducational group work in building shame resilience. ( B.Brown, 2007)
