Write a critical response, explain the problems inherent in defining and identifying sexual identity (as it relates to the category \u201chomosexual,\u201d) OR sex\/gender identity (\u201cintersex\u201d), particularly in light of the essentialism\/social construction debate or, colloquially, nature vs. nurture.
\nWhose position do you find the most compelling, and what are the political implications of these theories? Do you prefer Foucault or Jagose?
\nYour essay is an opportunity for you to reflect on one or more key concepts through a close critical reading of one text, or a comparison of two. You may wish to pursue a theoretical question in more detail in your critical response paper. Make sure you tell me which text you are choosing. You can pick any of the ones from the modules we’ve covered (including recommended texts). Again, you can choose one to pick apart. For instance, I can spend time describing an articles and compare them to one another, describing how similar or different they are in how they deal with their respective subjects.
\nYour essay should have a thesis and you should develop at least 3 main sub-points. In-text citations are necessary as well as a works cited listing the source you used. Any citation style is fine as long as it is consistent.
