For example, one I think I grok goes: Virginia Woolf —> Hannah Arendt —> Ursula Le Guin, Donna Harroway (temporality approach) Or Simone de Beauvoir —> Betty Friedan —> Judith Butler (“other” theory/identity-constructionist approach) Does this make any sense?
Yeah, that's a definite concern, but otoh I do want to pay attention to the sources of apparent differences I see in how I think about stuff and how some women writers seem to. I'm not pre-committed to either there being differences or no differences.

Ok but “this particular brand of women thinkers” is not “women”

fwiw there are definitive and measurable differences in the ways that men and women see and move through the world but any discussion of that without mentioning the generational violence that shapes the differences in their lived environments is depicting a fiction of equality

It's not apparent in all topics. For example, there is nothing notably gendered about the difference between Conan Doyle and Christie in mysteries. But there does seem to be when it comes to some philosophy topics. Maybe it's illusory, maybe not.
