Surtido rico

By relying too heavily on the psychoanalytic language of the phallus, these feminist and queer post-feminist reinterpretations of the dildo overlook the technological operations that have regulated and controlled the technological construction and reproduction of masculinity and femininity, at least for the last two centuries. If the dildo is disruptive, it's not because it allows lesbians to enter the phallic paradise, but because it shows that masculinity, like femininity, is subject to the social and political technologies of construction and control. The dildo is the first indicator of the body's sexual plasticity and the potential for prosthetic modification of its contours.

Al depender demasiado del lenguaje psicoanalítico del falo, estas relecturas feministas y post-feministas queer del dildo pasan por alto las operaciones tecnológicas que han regulado y controlado la construcción y reproducción tecnológica de la masculinidad y la feminidad, al menos durante los últimos dos siglos. Si el dildo es disruptivo, no lo es porque permita a la lesbiana entrar en el paraíso del falo, sino porque muestra que la masculinidad está, tanto como la feminidad, sujeta a las tecnologías sociales y políticas de construcción y control. El dildo es el primer indicador de la plasticidad sexual del cuerpo y de la posible modificación prostética de su contorno.

It's necessary to consider sex, at least since the 18th century, as a biopolitical technology. That is, as a complex system of regulatory structures that control the relationship between bodies, instruments, machines, uses, and users. The dildo, then, reveals itself as one instrument among other organic and inorganic machines (hands, whips, penises, chastity belts, condoms, tongues, etc.) and not simply as a replica of a single member. In this sense, the dildo can be considered a fundamental reflexive act in the history of counter-sexual technology.
