The Epistemology of Microaggression
In recent literature on microaggression, various authors argue that the primary harm of microaggression is epistemic: it diminishes the victim’s capacity to make a knowledge claim because she is uncertain of the intention of the microaggressor. This view has been defended in one of two ways…

A Relational-Vulnerabilities Account of Gaslighting
Gaslighting has received widespread attention for its impacts on victims. In the context of a dyadic relationship, it is generally understood to be a form of abuse in which one individual repeatedly challenges the perspective of another until they doubt their own perspective and even their own…

Antitransgender Legislation as Scapegoating
This paper examines the wave of antitransgender legislation in Western countries as a contemporary form of scapegoating. Drawing on René Girard’s theory of mimetic violence and Talia Mae Bettcher’s analysis of transphobic violence and essentialization, it argues that trans people are culturally…

Old Discipline, New Medium
Since the release of ChatGPT in 2022, professors have been struggling to navigate the widespread adoption of LLMs, which are often misdescribed as mere learning tools or digital assistants. Seemingly, the dominant response to this crisis has been to revive traditional pedagogies from thirty years…

The Self-Formation of Sex Workers
Feminists have long debated whether marginalized individuals who are pushed into the sex industry can give genuine consent or make real choices about the work. Although disparate dominant feminist theories broadly disagree on the issue of sex work, they nevertheless share many of the same…

On Becoming Incorrigible
Like a setlist for a concert, an abstract signposts an essay’s conceptual content and structure for potential readers. For scholarship, the abstract is an important accessibility measure, because it supports the reader’s ability to budget their time and energy. This anti-essay comes in the form of…

Notes for a Feminist Abolitionist Genealogy of Bioethics
In this motivational article, I employ Michel Foucault’s ideas about genealogy, power, and the subject to provoke a new problematization of the subfield of bioethics. By drawing on the claims of feminist abolitionists, the challenges of Foucault’s work, and the lessons of historical epistemology, I…

Cisciety Must Be Defended
To date, the work of Michel Foucault has played an outsized role in the founding frameworks of both queer and trans theory. I am interested here, however, not in where Foucault’s influence is undeniable but in where it is curiously absent. Specifically, I am interested in the relative absence of…

Crip Zen Foucault
In this article, I rethink Foucault’s late work through an intersectional, transcultural, feminist disability studies approach to argue that Foucault’s care of the self offers instructive tools with which disabled and marginalized women can construct a radical aesthetics and politics of self-care…

“We’ve Been Taught to Be Dishonest about Ourselves”
A graduate course on critical disability studies that we co-authored and taught for Athabasca University’s Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies program revolved around Ladelle McWhorter’s 2009 book, Racism and Sexual Oppression in Anglo-America: A Genealogy. Our keen interest in McWhorter’s…

Pluralism, Opacity, and Values in the Social World
Katharine Jenkins’s Ontology and Oppression helps bridge the chasm between discussions of social ontology in analytic metaphysics and treatments of injustice and oppression in social and political philosophy. In this commentary on Jenkins’s book, I address three main issues. First, I question a…

Social Kinds and Semantics
In her book Ontology and Oppression, Katharine Jenkins defends a framework for the ontology of social kinds that is impressive in both its systematicity and explanatory power. My central concern, however, is that Jenkins seems to merely assume a separation between semantics and ontology—a…

Where to Start with an Ontology That Doesn’t Come First?
In this commentary, I discuss two important moves in Katharine Jenkins’s Ontology and Oppression: the development of a pluralist conceptual framework for social kinds and the rejection of an ontology-first approach to social kinds in emancipatory social struggles. While Jenkins discusses gender…

Disability, Self-Representation, and Care
In this paper, I examine the implications that the often-used slogan of disability rights, “Nothing about us without us,” has for our understanding of disability identity. I argue that externally labeling a person as disabled violates the principle of self-representation that is at the core of…

Whose Anger Matters?
Anger-eliminativism, the view that we should, as much as possible, reduce the role anger plays in our moral lives and theories, fails in ways predictable of anti-intersectional methodologies. In failing to adopt intersectionality as a maxim of inquiry, anger-eliminativism ignores, dismisses, and…

Autonomy and Gendering in Childhood
Supporting the development of children’s autonomy is widely recognized as a fundamental good. Despite this, social practices that reflect and reinforce patriarchal gender norms are ubiquitous. These norms, however, curtail the development and exercise of children’s autonomy by constraining their…

Confessing Victims and Victim Testimony
Judith Butler’s model of confession maintains agency in both the doing of the deed and the admission of that deed in speech, but victim testimony works differently. In acts of victim testimony, when one describes the injustices one has suffered, the admission of the deed connotes a certain agency…

How Cis Went Mainstream
Today, cisgender (or cis for short) typically refers to someone whose gender “aligns with” or “matches” their sex assigned at birth. In this essay, I track and analyze how that dominant sense of cis arose. I identify three primary forces that helped mainstream the term and its current definition…
