"Today, we should be aware of how the trope of “womenandchildren” is
circulating in relation to Gaza and to Palestine more broadly. This
trope accomplishes many discursive feats, two of which are most
prominent: The massifying of women and children into an
undistinguishable group brought together by the “sameness” of gender and
sex, and the reproduction of the male Palestinian body (and the male
Arab body more generally) as always already dangerous."
