https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phallocentrism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterritorialization

The point is a criticism of Freud and the vast majority of Western philosophy for being phallocentric and defending the binary between the phallic and the non-phallic (which often means the binary between the sexes as well), which in turn becomes a defense of traditional family values. Such (arising from what Engels called "historical defeat of the female sex") is an unstable binary that is sustained by force, and can be deterritorialized (for a short explanation of deterritorialization this reddit post is useful) by an Other that exists outside of the binary: notably phallic women including those who partake in activities such as pegging, lesbians, or trans woman. Because they exist outside the binary, they can effectively destabilize and transcend it without being recuperated (as liberal feminism historically has been).

That is exactly my point. All of your defenses of your statements require people to do research to define ever deeper levels of jargon and expert terminology. Even if you don't want to explain like I'm 5, you should at least be able to break down a concrete point that the average layman could understand as your core premise.

What is your core premise using no jargon? Use only terms the average person on the street could understand in casual polite conversation. Until you can do that, I won't believe you even know the argument you are trying to make. Acting like it's plain English when you reference a specific author and essay isn't plain English.

For an example, I've studied the pathos of the ubermensch and silver medalist depression extensively, and they're extremely complex concepts, but I could explain their core premise to a 5 year old. You have shown a lack of that capability and use so many complex terms in your argument that I'm not even certain what your core argument is in spite of being able to define all the words individually. It sounds like post modernist word salad.
