A 2023 Choice Reviews Outstanding Academic TitleQueering Philosophy provides a critical introduction to and engagement with current conversations and emerging themes at the nexus of queer theory and philosophy. Much more than a summary of recent work, this book presents an intersectional, thematic approach that highlights scholarship at the cutting edge of queer, feminist, disability, and critical race theories, defines the parameters of contemporary queer philosophy, and argues that a queer philosophy must aim to queer philosophy. Queering Philosophy explores the possibility of doing philosophy otherwise. In doing so, the book explores feminist, critical race, and critical disability theories to advance a queer feminist critique, and challenges the unacknowledged whiteness and other forms of marginalization that have characterized the mainstream of philosophy and queer theory’s archive. This accessible and important book is ideal for courses in philosophy and gender, sexuality, race and disability studies.

    'Den feministiska rörelsen lärde kvinnor att se sig själva som offer för förtryckande patriarkat... En självpåtagen offerroll är inte ett recept för lycka', menar den konservativa aktivisten och författaren Phyllis Schalfy och denna tes är genomgående även i denna debattbok. Författaren beskriver här hur kvinnor biologiskt, socialt och evolutionärt fungerar - något som den agen...
  • Language and Gender in the Military
    Edith A. Disler
    In the thirty-year history of the study of language and gender, theory and application have branched incrementally like the reaches of a family tree. The study of language and gender has progressed from an eye-opening review of differences between the 'language' of women and men to observations that language served to preserve 'domination' of one sex over another and on to a cr...
  • Online Intersex Communities
    Brian Still
    Once referred to as hermaphrodites, intersex persons are born with a sexual anatomy or physiology inconsistent with social expectations of what constitutes a normal male or female. Of course, this definition of intersexuality, like all definitions, is rhetorically charged. In other words, intersexuality does not have meaning in and of itself that can be separated from the cultu...

    Qui aurait raison d’imaginer une humanité exclusivement masculine ou exclusivement féminine ? Pareille tendance serait contre-nature et contredirait à coup sûr l’optimisme originaire selon lequel le Créateur, après la création de la femme, aux côtés de l’homme, vit que tout était très bon. Le débat contemporain sur l’identité humaine ou l’identité sexuelle est tellement provoca...
