| Sumario: | Is it possible to consider Luce Irigaray, along with her critique of the phallogocentric character of language, a queer thinker? This proposal is strange (queer), because, on the one hand, the hegemony of Judith Butler’s discursive constructionism has degraded the power of Irigaray’s ideas through the false adjudication of metaphysical essentialism. On the other hand, Butler’s linguistic monism is assumed to constitute the theoretical prism that underlies the entire field of queer studies. Both reasons make it necessary to answer affirmatively to our question. Faced with them, this article brings Irigaray together with queer thinkers based on the postulation of an ontological dimension –in the essentialist– that involves the gestational and productive potential of radical alterity in relation to language. |
