Initially, the movement of Feminist Theology merely demanded favors they should had it. However, Feminist Theologian gone so far from the position they should be before breaking decrees of Christianity. They tend to understand God through a women-biased point of view, since concept of God are commonly comprehended from patriarchal perspective. Indeed, a true theology is what comes based on Holy Scripture. Such a principle, however, is not applied by Feminist Theology, since their theological view are established on Christian women experience all this time. According to Feminist Theology, doctrine of Christianity suggested to prioritize men rather than women and accordingly, Feminist Theology desire to reconstruct it to be more slightly feminine-nuanced. Margaret D. Kamitsuka, one of Feminist Theologians believes in that Feminist Theology born in a struggle and continuously humiliated, before bringing about the new spiritual image and resistance discourse concerning in an empowerment of women. To conclude, this paper will try to reveal briefly the development and Feminist Theological view about doctrine of Christianity.
