I agree with both Richard and Quetzil that Butler is a GREAT way to get
at the concepts I was trying to point to in my last post. As a matter of
fact, I had a difficult time NOT referring to GT and BTM when I wrote
it...I was trying to stick to Foucault. But if we're gonna
mention her anyway, I might as well CHAMPION HER. Butler follows D&G's
idea that there are as many sexes as there are individuals, and she
probably covers this territory, a la D&G and a la Nietzsche, better than
anyone else.
