<span class="" style="font-size:11pt">Bodies are not inherently meaningful, but imbued with meaning through social practice. This talk highlights the discursive processes through which this attribution of meaning takes place by analyzing the complex connection
between language, gender, and embodiment. Rather than treating “discourse” as an abstract force, the analysis presented here grounds theories of embodiment in the everyday language that transform human flesh into embodied selves. By examining everyday language
use, the talk highlights concrete linguistic strategies and their potential to complicate dominant medicoscientific discourses about biological sex.</span></div>
