In This Sex Which Is Not One, Luce Irigaray elaborates on some of the major themes of Speculum of the Other Woman, her landmark work on the status of women in Western philosophical discourse and in psychoanalytic theory.  In eleven acute and widely ranging essays, Irigaray reconsiders the question of female sexuality in a variety of contexts that are relevant to current discussion of feminist theory and practice.  Among the topics she treats are the implications of the thought of Freud and Lacan for understanding womanhood and articulating a feminine discourse; classic views on the significance of the difference between male and female sex organs; and the experience of erotic pleasure in men and in women.  She also takes up explicitly the question of economic exploitation of women; in an astute reading of Marx she shows that the subjection of woman has been institutionalized by her reduction to an object of economic exchange.  Throughout Irigaray seeks to dispute and displace male-centered structures of language and thought through a challenging writing practice that takes a first step toward a woman's discourse, a discourse that would put an end to Western culture's enduring phallocentrism.

Making more direct and accessible the subversive challenge of Speculum of the Other Woman, this volume -- skillfully translated by Catherine Porter with Carolyn Burke -- will be essential reading for anyone seriously concerned with contemporary feminist issues.

About the Author

Luce Irigaray, a trained psychoanalyst, holds two doctorates, one in linguistics and one in philosophy.  The publication of Speculum of the Other Woman in 1974 provoked the wrath of the Lacanian faction, leading to her expulsion from the Freudian School and from her teaching position at Vincennes

Ah but this feminist is even stupider than we could have possibly thought...there is in fact a neat and convient way to deal with turbulent flow that Barbara J Short and Sissmon Sommer developed while working for NACA/NASA...it is known as the T Prime method and their work is well documented. Leave it to a dumb feminist to overlook the work of a brilliant FEMALE gunner

Britney certainly leads to "self-stimulated emissions." At least, in my case...

Again, proof positive of the masculine theory of Miss Irigaray. Just look at the terminology used in lasers: stimulated emission, excited states, optical pumping. Laser journals are filled with this degrading pornography.

Take a look at this hag. I guarantee you that the only masculine "rigid, solid" things she's ever used require batteries.

'I don't know which is worse, the rape of science in the name of postmodernism and feminism or the nuttification of liberal arts under the same banners."

This much I know, the Humanities have suffered at the hands of pycho killers and in a sense it is dead. Know if we lose our science we are in real bad straits.

Are you starting to notice that the liberal wankers have these same Universities making all sorts of health claims.

Duke is all of what is thoroughly Postmodern, like Harvard/Yale with better climate.

Sheesh. This reminds me how lucky I was to get out of my college physics class with a C. I did better in my Bio classes. Even better in my Poli Sci electives. :)

Psychoanalysis and Lucan are all early Postmodernist vocabulary. Remember psychoanalysis coming to America peaching allot of German thinking through Adler Jung, Jaspers etal.

Psychoanalysis was a religion and philosophy but very dangerous. The ego and subconscious were concepts cooped by Freud from a whole foundation of German Philosophy.

Whereas men have sex organs that protrude and become rigid, women have openings that leak menstrual blood and vaginal fluids... From this perspective it is no wonder that science has not been able to arrive at a successful model for turbulence.

Ladies, if what's comin' outta there has observable turbulance, you need to see a doctor!

last time I noticed, a building, pipe, pipe support, or pump really doesn't give a da*m about who designed it, who bought it, or who turned the switch.

Male, female, or neutral. Gay, straight, or unknown.

It will do exactly as it was BUILT, with the fluid and power available. And any jerk of a feminist that thinks she can predict turbulent flow would b emaking a hell of a lot more as an engineer than a collge prof.

Except as an engineer, she'd have to show that her theorirs really worked.

As a college prof, she fill her mouth with any bulls*it she prefers.

And no one will be the wiser. Because her critics are obviously as stupid, vain, and ill-educated as she is.

The Paranoiac Left Democrats :

"The only thing I can say is that the Democrats could be going paranoid and that is not a good thing................they will need to pull an inside straight if they give up the South. If the Democrats cede the South then Republicans will have no need of marshaling financial resources and they will be able to reserve it for the remaining states".

"Masculine physics" privileges rigid, solid things."

Okay, I finally found a sentence I understand in here, and here's my reaction:

YIPPEE! :) ;)

I think ridiculous feminists like this should be required to test fly planes designed by feminist engineers.

Not female engineers, feminist engineers.

Proverbs 9:13 A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.

Typical gyno-oppressive preaching! A flaccid scriptural passage if there ever were one!
