"If it was ever possible ideologically to characterize women's lives by the distinction of public and private domains--suggested by images of the division of working-class life into factor and home, of bourgeois life into market and home, and of gender existence into personal and political realms--it is not a totally misleading ideology, even to show how both terms of the dichotomies construct each other in practice and in theory. I prefer a network ideological image, suggesting the profusion of spaces and identities and the permeability of boundaries in the personal body and in the body politic. "Networking" is both a feminist practice and a multinational corporate strategy--weaving is for oppositional cyborgs."
