Negation Woman


This is Negation Woman--a dialectical super heroine who is able to use her powers of thought to negate any actuality. But when it comes to her hair, she finds herself in the same conundrum as Marx when he complained that 'If I negate powdered pigtails, I am still left with unpowdered pigtails.' (Marx, 'Introduction to A Contribution to the Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right', 1844)

(Negation Woman was conceived of in conjunction with SB the SSB.)

i hereby challenge Negation Woman to negate the thought that no-one else can feel my pain. she would then have accomplished the remarkable feat of proving that it is a thesis. which would just leave it up to me to prove with a gesture pointing to my aching heart, that it is true.
