... hegemonic violence. The hybrid who lacks the phallus that would position it within the boundaries of the sex binary is in fact holding a dead rooster—a dead cock. The lack of the phallus is nearly as bad as its loss within the patriarchal narrative, since the phallus is the symbol of power...

... psychoanalytic scholar interested in questions of sexual difference and leftist politics. Following Shanna Carlson's call in TSQ ( 2014 : 171) to reengage the question of the Lacanian phallus along with its status as fundamental signifier for the subject's lack-in-being, Osserman explains how Lacanian writing...
