| Abstract | To explain Hestian feminism, named for Hestia, the Greek goddess of hearth and home, this paper examines six mainstream feminist perspectives to expose the dilemma of domesticity within feminism. A basic tenet of liberal feminism is the extension to women of the citizenship rights enjoyed by men, but Hestian feminism acknowledges that women may have either a domestic (Hestian) or a public (Hermean) orientation. Domestic, material, and cultural feminism explains how women historically have been domestically-oriented while they maintained their feminist perspectives. A re-examination of Marxism from the Hestian perspective provides an alternative view on the household and family. Radical feminism and Hestian feminism are compatible because both perspectives encourage making the private domain visible. The last perspective, socialist feminism, seeks to synthesis Marxism and radical feminism and provides a systematic way to reconceptualize the private domain. A 31-item bibliography is included.
