i am completely dissatisfied with developmental theory, actually, and i
agree, that
Walkerdine and Butler have much to contribute to CHAT, in terms of
understanding the subject as gendered and sexualized, something that is
fundamental to
any understanding of any activity,... again, I can only wonder why
these necessary and critical understandings remain absent in the
development of
the theory...
