In 1993, Naomi Wolf presented a devise polemic on feminism. In Fire with Fire, a New York Times notable book and national bestseller, Wolf called for a new approach to address shortcomings she perceived in the feminist movement. She cited a chief concern; that feminism was out of touch with the average woman’s needs and mindset. Wolf claimed that most women did not identify with feminism, stating that the feminist movement relied too heavily upon scare tactics in seeking support. As a result, she argued, feminism failed to inspire women.
