Dissent, a la wikipedia

anarcha-feminism 

1. combines anarchism with feminism. 
2. views patriarchy as a manifestation of involuntary hierarchy. 

Property is the right to use and abuse . . . if goods are property, why should not the proprietors be kings, and despotic kings — kings in proportion to their facultes bonitaires? And if each proprietor is sovereign lord within the sphere of his property, absolute king throughout his own domain, how could a government of proprietors be any thing but chaos and confusion? - Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

radical feminism

1. a "current" within feminism that focuses on the theory of patriarchy as a system of power that organizes society into a complex of relationships 
2. aims to challenge and to overthrow patriarchy by opposing standard gender roles and what they see as male oppression of women, and calls for a radical reordering of society. 

(The term radical in radical feminism is used as an adjective meaning of or pertaining to the root or going to the root. Radical feminists locate the root cause of women's oppression in patriarchal gender relations.)
