Apparently xenofeminism is “one of the most exciting intellectual trends in contemporary feminism” and I’ve certainly experienced a number of enthused individuals excitedly recommending the XFM to me over the past few years (warning! long thread)
*DISCLAIMER*: not to say I don’t appreciate how XFM pushes for an ambitious & uncompromising vision of feminism which can contend w/ current&future challenges in the politics of technology- I was enthused when i first encountered it that others were doing things w/ cyberfeminism
However, I’m uncomfortable in particular with the name and use of the prefix “xeno,” most commonly defined as ‘relating to foreigners’. This “xeno” is used as a stand-in for ‘alien’ but what kind of feminist politics is this xenofeminist ‘politics for alienation’?
