This paper is concerned with the nature of feminine bodily comportment described by Iris Marion Young in ‘Throwing Like a Girl.’ According to Young, the style of movement of women, who undergo patriarchal oppression, reveals their existential status as a socio-historically oppressed group. Her claim is that patriarchal oppression acts upon women’s bodily functions, thus causing feminine motility to exhibit an inhibited intentionality, an ambiguous transcendence and a discontinuous unity. In this paper I take issue with these three modalities of feminine comportment. Firstly, I resort to Max Scheler’s phenomenological description of the different stages leading to motor action to show that the bodily functionality of oppressed women is intact when considered from the motor-intentional perspective. Secondly, I advocate, via Scheler’s phenomenology, a different mode through which to interpret the bodily expressivity of oppressed women. My claim is that feminine motility expresses the negative impact that sexism has upon the oppressed women’s emotional pre-theoretical and pre-non-motor level. My (Schelerian) thesis is that patriarchal society negatively influences, and thereby compromises, the constitution of women’s axiological apparatus by inhibiting their preferences of values. Finally, I argue that the axiological apparatus of oppressive men is likewise compromised, and hence needs to be re-educated as much as that of the oppressed women. The main aim of this paper is to suggest a correct reading of the hampered motility of oppressed women, which keeps into consideration the phenomenon of ‘oppression’ in its entirety, and which can thus lead to adequate axiological therapies.

通过谢勒对运动动作的理解对杨的“像女孩一样投掷”的批评

本文关注的是 Iris Marion Young 在《像女孩一样投掷》中描述的女性身体行为的本质。根据杨的说法,遭受父权压迫的女性的运动风格揭示了她们作为一个社会历史受压迫群体的存在地位。她的主张是,父权压迫作用于女性的身体机能,从而导致女性运动表现出一种受抑制的意向性、一种模棱两可的超越性和一种不连续的统一性。在本文中,我对这三种女性举止方式提出质疑。首先,我求助于 Max Scheler 对导致运动行为的不同阶段的现象学描述,以表明当从运动意图的角度考虑时,受压迫妇女的身体功能是完整的。其次,我主张,通过舍勒的现象学,一种不同的方式来解释受压迫妇女的身体表现。我的主张是,女性的能动性表达了性别歧视对受压迫女性的前理论和前非运动水平的情感的负面影响。我(谢勒)的论点是,父权社会通过抑制她们对价值的偏好,对女性价值体系的构成产生负面影响,从而妥协。最后,我认为受压迫男性的价值体系同样受到损害,因此需要像受压迫女性一样进行再教育。本文的主要目的是建议正确解读受压迫妇女的运动受阻,将“压迫”现象整体考虑在内,从而导致适当的价值论疗法。
