In order to study how their perceptions are formed, I have besides using stereotypes and Max Weber’s ideal types used a theoretical understanding that is combined of epistemologies represented in liberal feminism, radical feminism and specificity feminism. I have been able to see how perceptions are affected by stereotyped beliefs and ideals and how these can be equated with the three selected feminism approaches. Through the use of a qualitative research study I have been able to take part of the respondents' views of the world of concepts and thus been able to analyze how these stereotypes and ideal types affect women’s position and identification with feminism.
