I like Butler and I like Nussbaum, and this article is a classic. For balance, here is a recent interview with Butler being quite clear and incisive[0] and here is a fantastic, somewhat critical profile of Nussbaum[1]. Worth mentioning also, as Nussbaum does, John Stuart Mill’s 1869 book The Subjection of Women[2], an incredibly clear and comprehensive account of the issue sure to shock anyone who thinks feminism started with the sexual revolution in the 60s.
