I had to mostly disengage from this reply when you used "you must be hostile to X" as an excuse to not understand my comment. In fact, my point is completely irrelevant to feminism.
The definition you have declared for 'reality' is a completely incompatible with the 'carve reality at its joints' concept that you are appealing to.
Some of the other points that you make are ones that I would address in a different context (perhaps in reply to my other reply in this tree) and with a different introduction.
Sorry, but I haven't seen that either. magfrump's concept ("situations you will encounter in life") seems quite compatible with "carve reality at its joints".
(I agree that saying "I assume you have some hostility towards feminist studies" is not very useful at this point)
I am sorry about the hostility comment, I had a a lot of replies to sort through so I assumed you referred to the original comment rather than the later comment where I introduced the definition.
As Emile notes, however, I don't see any incompatibility between my definition and the concept outlined in the post he links.
