I was hoping that the quote I made keeps your tone. If you meant it to be
taken for your serious position - it keeps your tone. If you meant it
ironically or if you meant it cynically - the quote still keeps the tone of
the rest of your post. Whether your post was straight forward or cynical -
would it feel better if I say that this would not have changed my reply?
As to your question:
> Then, what I was sort of thinking is that postmodern time,
> being timeless in a way, gives rather a different space than modern time
> presents. Are you ok with that? I mean as a woman?
my reply is:
Postmodern "death of the subject" with its different facets concerns, in my
view, the phallic subject only. In a non-phallic borderspace other
subjective instances coemerge, so I would not put timelessness as the main
postmodern possibility - I mean as a "woman".
