The tenth issue of F.R.DAVID is "…for single mothers." It presents a heterosexual man who takes the liberty to representing some universal views of humanity, typically expressed by women and homosexuals.
"If the critical suggestion I am making in this book is that people tell their stories (which they do not know or cannot speak) through others’ stories, then the very force of insight of this critical suggestion was at once born out and actively enacted, put in motion, by the process of my writing, which was driven, in effect, by the ways in which I was precisely missing my own implication in the texts before me." Shoshana Felman, "What Does A Woman Want?"
