Preliminary Materials for a Theory of the Young-Girl by Tiqqun

5.0

wow!!!

i liked the aphoristic approach and the concept of trash theory, which is implemented well. fascinated by the framework; it provides such an interesting analysis of the denigration of femininity/femininess. would love to see this contrasted with Rookie-style teen girlbossery, or even with the It Girl a la NY Mag's Yesteryear issue.

grappling with identification in the Young-Girl: agent of Spectacle, willing or unwilling, cognizant or not.

"She is a body without soul dreaming she's a soul without a body." compared with Lispector: "And she was so body that she was pure spirit."

girl as void
