Feminism and the cave

The cave allegory is increadibly intrigueing to me, but thats because I view it from a feminist perspective. i think the cave could easily be interperted on how society has miseducated all of us on gender and sex roles, perhaps not only by the shadows that I interpert as media, but by conversations between prisoners themselves, aka societal norms?
I wondered if anyone would give me some feedback on whether or not Plato could be seen as a feminist(I believe he could be)and why?
Any feed back would be veryinteresting, Thanks!
