Abstract
Given the current polarization of gender knowledge in the public discourse, this article investigates the “other side” of gender knowledge production. Building on feminist standpoint literature, I conduct a close reading of the affective-discursive dynamics of knowledge production in two anti-feminist online communities in the United States and India. I find that anti-feminist communities appropriate feminist practices of consciousness-raising to construct a shared sense of victimization. This appropriation is, however, incomplete. In contrast to feminist practices, anti-feminist knowledge generation is premised on the polarizing themes of “ultimate victimhood” and “ultimate other,” which lead to violence and exclusion, rather than liberation.

“另一面”:通过对反女权网络社区中情感干预的女权主义分析,评估性别知识的两极分化

摘要
鉴于当前公共话语中性别知识的两极分化,本文研究了性别知识生产的“另一面”。在女性主义立场文学的基础上,我对美国和印度的两个反女权主义在线社区中知识生产的情感-话语动态进行了仔细的阅读。我发现,反女权主义者群体适当地采用了提高意识的女权主义者的做法,以构建一种共同的受害感。但是,这笔拨款是不完整的。与女权主义实践相反,反女权主义知识的产生是以“最终受害人”和“最终他人”的两极主题为前提的,这导致暴力和排斥,而不是解放。
