Yes, but your readership is not necessarily the academic world. You might want to look at Susan Hekman's postmodernist critique of Standpoint theory and the subsequent debate on that paper. The paper, "Truth and Method: Feminist Standdpont Theory Revisited" was published...

That seems like a non-sequitur. You are right that my readership is not predominantly academic and so this is unlikely to interest them as much as the ideas which are travelling into activism, leftist social conscience and wider society. The ones they see.

Yes, I suspect my own sources, which are academic sources, are not ones that your average Twitter activist would have bother reading.

No, and yet the ideas which are affecting them are academic in origin so this is my reading. But I am reading Crenshaw, Butler, Applebaum, Medina, Dotson etc to address primarily intersectionality which is dominant now in feminism.

I disagree that Crenshaw and those you mention are dominant in feminism: at least not in the elite universities. Radical feminists have that privilege. .Consider those such as the highly regarded (in the feminist world) Rae Langton at Cambridge, Miranda Crocker at CUNY etc.

There are certainly some radfems holding strong in academia but politically not so much. I did a small survey of them recently. I didn't mean to, actually. I asked to hear from female academics who felt silenced by intersectionality & most were radfems. Well, gender critical.

But how did you carry out your survey? If you asked on Twitter, then you are back to the problem of you replacing your Twitter followers for what's going on out there.

Have you any idea how popular this blog is? https://feministphilosophers.wordpress.com/ I suspect it has a following substantially in excess of your Twitter followers.

Nearly everything has a following substantially in excess of my Twitter followers. I'm not sure what you're asking and why. I've just been reading your timeline which is very interesting and trying to place you. I am failing!

I just exist on Twitter with 20 followers. You don't need to concern yourself with the likes of me. When I'm not on Twitter, my head my be buried in a feminist philosophy journal article or book.

OK, then. Well, thanks for the conversation. I am now going to bed. Goodnight!
