"Feminist and critical race theorists alike have long acknowledged the "intersection" of gender and race difference; it is by now a truism that the ways we become boys and girls, men and women, cannot be disentangled from the ways we become white or Black men and women, Asian or Latino boys and girls. And yet, even as many have sought to attend to this intersection of difference, most critical treatments focus finally either on the prod ..."

"Putting the ethical tools of philosophy to work, Ellen K. Feder seeks to clarify how we should understand "the problem" of intersex. Adults often report that medical interventions they underwent as children to "correct" atypical sex anatomies caused them physical and psychological harm.

"All people spend a considerable portion of their lives either as dependents or the caretakers of dependents. The fact of human dependency--a function of youth, severe illness, disability, or frail old age--marks our lives, not only as those who are cared for, but as those who engage in the work of caring. In spite of the time, energy and resources-material and emotional, social and individual-that dependency care requires, these concern ..."

"In this special issue of "GLQ," experts from a variety of disciplines discuss the future of treatment for people with intersex conditions--those born with ambiguous genitalia--and consider what intersexuality means for theories of gender. By examining the ethics of medical treatment and the repercussions of intersex surgery, "Intersex and After" demonstrates how biology, activism, law, morality, and ethics have a shared interest in the ..."

"Ellen. K. Feder. Eva. Feder. Kittay. Simone de Beauvoir, speaking of the
limitations of women's freedom and equality, wrote: “Now, what peculiarly
signalizes the situation of woman is that she—a free and autonomous being like
all human creatures—nevertheless finds herself living in a world where men
compel her to assume the status of the Other.” Given women's dependence on
men——economic, social, legal, political, and for the consti ..."

"Macht.” When Derrida's reading of Nietzsche is translated into German,
Nietzsche's various statements about women are all grouped under the word “
Frau.” Even though the statements do not all use that noun. At least two readers
of Spurs have had occasion to comment on the German word “Frau,” placing it in
diacritical distinction not to a word for man, but to another word for woman. In his
1980 reading of the fourlanguage edition of ..."

"He wore a perfect disguise that said welcome, for you can let me into your life, as I am just like you, only so much smarter! How subtly this man of charisma, magnetism and undeniable chutzpa inserted every made up word he wanted you to take notice of and never miss. Such as the movie that had just wrapped, or the latest TV series, whose star was giving him all that trouble, and who accompanied him to the Laker game where he had seats b ..."
