  • Summary

  • On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Dr. Fellipe do Vale about his book Gender as Love. Gender is a topic of ever-increasing complexity, and that complexity requires a guide who can take us into the weeds with conviction and compassion. Among the topics we discuss:

    • What it means to pursue a non-reductive account of gender, that takes the body seriously as well as the ways we live socially and culturally.
    • Why it is attractive but also problematic to see gender purely as a social construct
    • Why solidarity and justice requires some sort of gender essentialism
    • How the category of love can help organize the way that we think about identity, gender, and social goods
    • Whether disability is an adequate category for dealing with difficulties in gender
    • On what it might mean to move towards "friendship" with our bodies in the midst of the forces of sin and death
