They reveal the contents of gender discrimination and female consciousness and subvert the culture of patriarchy.The feminist literary critics between the Mainland and Taiwan are affected by the west feminist literary criticisms and have made research in their own literary field . Although the feminist literature between the Mainland and Taiwan came from the same mother's body ,they made a difference when the critics restructured and applied the feminist literary criticisms because of the long-term isolation and the differences of the political circumstances between the straits .These differences mainly indicate three aspects :The first is that the literary contexts made a synchronism because of the affection of the political circumstances .The second is that the differences were made when they imbibed and applied the methods of the feminist literary criticisms .The feminist literary critics of the Mainland tried from the reality of our own country , to make quest for the criticisms and methods with Chinese feature. The feminist literary critics of Taiwan directly made use of the western feminist literary criticisms to write and analyze texts .The third is that the differences were made when they practized these theories .The western feminists advocate the critical patterns based upon female bodies , female writing , female discourse , female lesbian and androgyny .The feminists between the straits lay emphasis upon the different points of the criticisms and the degree of the criticisms.
