That's really interesting, Alice. Certainly, the version of gender
abolition i offered is modest and 'reformist.' A minimal program, maybe.
What if one *wants* to signify a gender? What if i want to be legible in
codes I am fully aware are social and cultural and technical?
I take a different tack on the question of the ontological reailty or
otherwise of the sexed human body. I think, or rather feel, that there is
what Kathy Acker called 'languages of the body' that are not entirely
overcoded or over-determined by language, the social, and so on. I just
think we know very little about them.
The 'play' that Sandy and others mention, with the body, to me is only
partly about playing with its social constructedness. I think one plays
with those aspects, and also direcly intervenes in its chemical signally or
morphology, to experiment with knowing the body itself. I think nobody
really knows very much about the sexed body, although ppl may have
intuitions about their own via its own language. The fascist move, as it
were, is to impose whatever one thinks one hears from one's own body as a
standard for everyone.
Rather than do that, why not take embodiment, including the sexed body, as
material for an open-ended experiment in what it means to be human.
Whatever gender is or could be is part of an experimental practice, the
results of which are as yet unknown. Same perhaps with sexes.
