Blog Prompt #3

Using the concepts and terminology we have been working with this semester and at least one other essay as support, explore Leslie Feinberg’s notion of “transliberation” in “We Are All Works In Progress.”

Questions to ponder:
Are Feinberg’s explorations and hopes devoted to a social constructionist approach to sex, gender, and sexuality?
How does Feinberg complicate the dominant ideology that “sex” and “gender” should neatly and naturally line up?
Why is transliberation a matter of “life and death”?
How can “transliberation” open up possibilities for all of us?

As you compose your blog, keep in mind the local and global implications of genetic research (an essentialist search for a biological “origin”) on sexual orientation detailed by Schuklenk, et al.

Due Monday @ 6:00PM. Happy Writing!
