Guidelines: Discussion 4

There are two parts to this discussion.

1. Reflect on the “Identity Terms” reading. What terms do you use to describe yourself and why? They may or may not be included in the reading.
2. Choose ONE of the theories in the “Feminist Philosophy of Language” reading in the “Critical work on language and philosophy of language” section. Find a CONCRETE example of the theory that is not provided in the reading. Share it with us and explain the theory and how it demonstrates it. Your example can be written. It can also be in the form of a meme or video. But you should write your analysis.

NOTE: This discussion asks you to respond to the readings. Usually, discussions provide other media to respond to. You should still do write your reading journal entry, and try to cover issues other than the two asked about here.
