I ...I look forward to seeing how you develop this. I guess that the gesture of "as disinterestedly as possible" never works for me, because it always ends up serving the hegemony and therefore being "on its side" and most determinately interested. Though as a rhetorical step whose inherent "interestedness" is later exposed I guess it may have some value!

Actually, give that "he said, she said" is most usually invoked in cases of rape, sexual harassment, or other sexual violence (as any SVU watcher knows), where it too erases the context of a massively uneven field of power, I actually find the invocation of this saw in this context somewhat disturbing!Emmanoreply@blogger.com
