Note that in modern feminist theory (actually, it is probably more accurate to think of feminisms rather than a single feminism) there is a place for embracing difference - we can reject the notion that one must either be male or 'not-male' (female; other). Fiona Giles' video 'milk men' can be read as an attempt at subverting this male/female opposition.
