Part of a series onFeminismWomenGirlsFemininity Feminism in France refers to the history of feminist thought and movements in France. Feminism in France can be roughly divided into three waves: First-wave feminism, which largely concerned itself with obtaining suffrage and civic rights for women, spanning from the French Revolution through the Second Republic and Third Republic, with significant contributions stemming from the revolutionary movements of the French Revolution of 1848 and Paris Commune, culminating in winning the right to vote in 1944.

Second-wave feminism spanned from the 1940s until the 1990s, and came about as a reevaluation of women's role in society, reconciling the inferior treatment of women in society despite their ostensibly equal political status to men. Pioneered by theorists such as Simone de Beauvoir, second wave feminism was an important current within the social turmoil leading up to and following the May 1968 events in France, and political goals included the guarantee of increased bodily autonomy for women, particularly as enabled through increased access to abortion and birth control.

Third-wave feminism spans from the early 2000s on, and continues the legacy of the second wave while adding in elements of postcolonial critique, approaching women's rights in tandem with other ongoing discourses, particularly those surrounding racism.
