Applying the Concept of Gender: Unsettled Questions
Hypatia 7 (3):180 - 187 (1992)
| Abstract | In commenting on Susan Bordo's discussion of gender bias, I both support and build on her contention that women's exclusion from philosophical discourse has been epistemologically and politically significant. But I also explore difficulties associated with applying the concept of gender and I voice concern about how to characterize the perspectives we share as women. Finally, I consider some theoretical and political limitations of utilizing gender as an analytical category. | |||||||||
