me: i thought of a phrase that will describe my work to pretentious art audiences.
bf: oh cool, what is it?
me: [sounding pleased with myself] "hybrid identities and heterotopias".
bf: heterotopias... that sounds homophobic.
me: no, it describes a pocket of alternative space in a world where everything is homogeneous.
bf: but it has the word 'hetero' in it?
me: yes.
bf: still sounds homophobic to me. the art world hates homophobes.
me: it's a phrase from foucault. they'll love it.
bf: foucault - that homo.
