Conflict theorists argue that society is divided between those who have power and those who do not. In Marx's analysis, this was the bourgeoisie (those who own the means of production) and the proletariat (those who do not). Similarly, conflict theorists argue that women, as a group, are in a position of less power and are more vulnerable to exploitation by men. Therefore, women can be seen as analogous to the proletariat in Marx's analysis.
