It was said, by ~Septimus Heap, in the Previous Thread, that:

The concept "feminist fantasy" is used for several different, fairly broad definitions. Trying to wedge it into a specific definition would just cause misuse, we have had really bad experience with such attempts.

The difficult point here would be to have a definition that is not overly narrow and yet does not lead to every work with a female main character being listed.

So a fairly broad definition would be warranted. Such as:

"A work written from a feminist perspective. More than just being about female main characters, such a work discusses concepts such as gender roles and sexuality."

If we have multiple definitions, why not turn the page into a Disambiguation, into pages about each of its broad definitions, whatever they are?

It currently has 198 wicks, and 9,215 inbounds. So, it's possibly not a pressing issue?

Um, this OP needs to state a reason why a repair is desired. It doesn't, so closing.
