Anti-sexist work cannot be traded for theoretical purity

Evidence

In the United States I think this kind of affirmative action is deeply in hock to corporate feminism. So what is one supposed to do, withdraw ? And if one doesn’t withdraw, this is not just a revisionary argument. This is a practical argument since it seems to me that anti-revisionary arguments have become fetishized in the context of post-modern capitalism. So from that point of view one can’t choose to be a purist as opposed to a revisionist. It seems to me that in that context one contaminates ones virtues by becoming an anti-sexist rather than a feminist in the sense of looking at subject constitution - distinguishing between and among women and so on. — Elizabeth Grosz, Criticism, Feminism and the Institution, 135
