Next day. You walk into the classroom, noticing that only half of the students are present. As you take a seat and look around, you immediately observe a significant change in your classmates. They exude more confidence and better manners than before. You feel a bit concerned for your absent classmates, but you do notice the transformation in the class's overall appearance. It seems like everyone has taken the time to invest in themselves and their personal style. As the class begins, you can feel the atmosphere is tense. The students who are present are much more engaged and attentive than before.
"Today we're going to talk more about postmodern feminism," Ms Johnson says. "This school of thought is interested in critiquing the binary thinking of male/female and challenging the idea of fixed identities." You nod along, already familiar with the concept.
Ms. Johnson continues, "Postmodern feminism is focused on the idea that identities are fluid and constantly changing. This means that gender, race, and class are all socially constructed and not fixed categories. It also means that we need to be aware of the power structures that are in place and how they affect our experiences."
As Ms. Johnson speaks, you can sense a shift in the classroom. Some students look uncomfortable, perhaps because they come from a higher class background, unlike your own. Ms. Johnson continues, "Postmodern feminism is about deconstructing these power structures and creating more inclusive and diverse communities. It's about acknowledging that everyone's experiences are valid and important."
Her eyes are scanning the room. "Now, when we talk about incarnating your femsona, we're not talking about simply rejecting your socially constructed gender," she explain. "We're talking about fully adopting the female gender, which we argue is better adapted to functioning in modern society. But in the context of postmodern feminism, we recognize that the female gender is fluid and dynamic. It's not a fixed identity, but rather a constantly evolving process of becoming. In politics, this is what we call the permanent revolution. And regardless of how you choose to express your femininity, it's always rooted in positive values such as empathy, nurturing, and collaboration."
She's pacing back and forth. "As we continue to explore postmodern feminism in this class, I want to remind everyone that if you are struggling with the rejection of your socially constructed gender and are feeling like a counterrevolutionary, we have resources available to help you," she says. "Electroshock therapy can be a useful tool in helping you think in a more fluid manner and address any psychological barriers you may be facing."
