1. Philosophy / D. Nature of Philosophy / 8. Humour

12318	The female body, when taken in its entirety, is the Phallus itself [Badiou]
	Full Idea: The female body, when taken in its entirety, is the Phallus itself.
	From: Alain Badiou (Briefings on Existence [1998])
	A reaction: Too good to pass over, too crazy to file sensibly, too creepy to have been filed under humour, my candidate for the weirdest remark I have ever read in a serious philosopher, but no doubt if you read Lacan etc for long enough it looks deeply wise.
