You don't have to reach into science fiction to see this. The concept of biopower outlines how modern ideologies mold human life to their structures.

Feminism has always been allied with radical and revolutionary biopolitics. It does not need eugenics and futuristic bioengineering to be so. Furthermore, the idea that feminists give a shit about sex-linked variation is nonsensical and I really hope I did not give that impression in my parent comment. It's quite the opposite. The whole point I was trying to make was that feminists don't care about this level of difference, that their ideology is engaged at the structural level of society and that this engagement is completely unintelligible without deeper criticism.
