A talk on gender

This seems better than a lot that we often get (basically coherent).  I think there is some merit in the epistemic doubt of saying that we can't get unmediated access biological differences in mental function or psyche (John Milbank's attack on the biopolitical fallacy), but I feel doubtful that say anthropology's massive collections of different human customs would not add up to some insight about sex through all the contradictions of the ways of doing gender.
