So That's What he was Getting At!

Your connection between Derrida and Woolf's "Three Guineas" actually helped me to really make sense of something that I was not so clear on. I had a hard time grasping what Derrida meant when he was talking about Women's Studies using men as the subjects and women as the ones mastering those subjects not making progress. Now I see that they would just take on the role that men had in disempowering, meaning that the outsider status is in fact necessary. Thank you!
