The cyborg is a kind of disassembled and reassembled, postmodern collective and personal self. This is the self feminists must code.

Feminist objectivity means quite simply situated knowledges

A cyborg is a cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organism, a creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction.

Consciousness of exclusion through naming is acute. Identities seem contradictory, partial, and strategic.

The boundary between science fiction and social reality is an optical illusion

From this point of view, science - the real game in town - is rhetoric, a series of efforts to persuade relevant social actors that one's manufactured knowledge is a route to a desired form of very objective power.

The cyborg would not recognize the garden of Eden; it is not made of mud and cannot dream of returning to dust.
