I don’t so much celebrate and/or practice the binary categories of love, often seen in “heterosexuality.” But, today, I thought I would offer up some insight…
In my desire for you, in the love that I share with you, my body is animated by the desire to be with you or to you, with me or to me, and it also longs for the existence of a between-us…I seek an alliance between who you are and who I am, in myself and in yourself. I seek a complex marriage between my interiority and that of a YOU which cannot be replaced by me, which is always outside of me, but thanks to which my interiority exists.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I love TO YOU thus means: I do not take you for a direct object, nor for an indirect object by revolving around you. It is, rather, around myself that i have to revolve in order to maintain the TO YOU thanks to the return to me… the ‘to’ is the guarantor of two intentionalities: mine and yours.
Quotables
"… Race and class are rendered distinct analytically only to produce the realization that the analysis of the one cannot proceed without the other. A different dynamic it seems to me is at work in the critique of new sexuality studies."

iRobyn dot com is the virtual web space for me to spend time blogging|researching, an opportunity to post my reading lists, and a place to house my academic thoughts.
iRobyn is rooted in the theories and practices of theological feminism[s], seeks to be faithful to culture gazing and navel gazing, is commited to being a critical social player and critic of society. Additionally, the work found on this site is a thoughtful, intentional, and critical response to the intersections of culture, gender, race and class. I seek out narrative and want to celebrate the ritual of narrative in a variety of ways, from a theological perspective to gender, politics, & culture. This site is about creating and celebrating the passion of narrative which is all rooted in the passion of friendship. I begin & end at a place of Social Ethics via the discipline of Theology.
