摘要
In this essay,I look at Western feminist critiques on Buddhism from Postcolonial perspective. I argue that Western feminists often neglect the complexity of Asian Buddhism,and the tendency to normalize Western values is also a form of oppression. In fact,some Western feminist critiques on Buddhism may have more to do with the concept of 'Western Buddhism' than with the genuine concern for Asian Buddhist women.
