Gender, race, ethnicity, class, religion, culture, etc., etc., etc.... How are we to rearticulate and retool those kaleidoscopic "problems" of social categories and identities each time differently, with different productivity, even as different "products"?-this capital, frontal problema, this "sufficient" bodily evidence in and of reality, "in front of you" and me <https://webmail.psu.edu/webmail/blank.html#_edn1>. Such is the broad philosophical force, background and foreground, of the questions I dwell on here if only briefly. What interests me in particular, just as an example if not exemplar, concerns the "Asian female" question, with which I happen to have some auto-ethnographical familiarity: the material specificity as well as translatability of some of the stereotypical identity markers of it categorically isolatable as such-I also show why a categorically responsive reflection matters, as my ultimate aim here is to advance a case for the social ontological centrality of this issue of Asian gender stereotypes to feminist and critical race theories.
