Interview with Alenka Zupancic: Ontology of Sex

PLEASE LIKE, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE! In this interview, we speak with feminist philosopher and psychoanalytic theorist, Alenka Zupančič. Alenka Zupančič talks about important ideas from her book, What is Sex? Zupančič theorizes about sexual difference and the social construction of sex using the Lacanian psychoanalytic lens to highlight the complex dimensions of sex. Alenka speaks about the ontology of sex: the reality of sexual existence. Alenka Zupančič comments upon the Deleuzean ontology of multiplicity, and difference using the Lacanian concept of the not-two and the constitutive lack in subjectivity. She talks about the dialectical relationship between feminism and Lacanian psychoanalysis, adding to the discourse on Judith Butler’s gender performativity by focusing on the contradictions that animate sexual life. Zupančič highlights the similarities and differences between Lacan’s Real and Deleuze’s Multiplicity. She also succinctly explains the very famous Lacanian aphorisms regarding sex: “Woman does not exist” and “There is no sexual relationship”. We end on the political implications of Lacanian theory for feminism and the left, the “new signifier”, and the potential for a politics of universal struggle.
