Daily Mail reports that students reading theology at Oxford University have managed to overturn the 800-year-old tradition that they have to study Christianity throughout their course. Changes are being made to the three-year undergraduate degree to keep up with the changing face of Britain.
These modules will include one called ‘feminist approaches to religion and theology,’ according to the Telegraph. The move, which was initially reported in the Times Higher Education magazine was instigated by both students and lecturers who challenged the lack of diversity in the curriculum.

Feminist theology is a movement found in several religions, including Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, and New Thought, to reconsider the traditions, practices, scriptures, and theologies of those religions from a feminist perspective.

It's a sign of the times. If female students play the gender card, they should found their own religion instead of criticising any religion founded by males. They have had centuries to do it, they could do it any time and start writing to build a library just like other religions, have people join and convert and acquire buildings then eventually get into university on their own merits.
