SUMMARY This essay argues the need for a dyke discourse that is a parallel project to queer theory but considers female subjectivity first and foremost and pays specific attention to desire and sexual practice as a mode of identity formation. The primary subject is the stonebutch -a queer masculine female, not a woman/not a man -and her partnered identity, the straight-appearing femme. Together, they fall out of the "woman-loving-woman" definition of lesbian, and problematize feminism's evacuation of female gender difference and assimiliationist strategies.
摘要 本文主张需要一种堤坝话语,它是与酷儿理论并行的项目,但首先考虑女性主体性,并特别关注欲望和性实践作为一种身份形成模式。主要主体是石女同性恋者——一种酷儿化的男性化女性,非女非男——及其伴侣身份,即外表看似异性恋的女性气质者。她们共同跳出了女同性恋“爱女人的女人”的定义,并对女权主义排除女性性别差异的做法和同化主义策略提出了质疑。
