This essay examines the contradictions often found in third wave feminist texts that
function as strategic choices that may shape, foster, and enhance an individual’s sense
of agency. Many third wave feminists utilize contradiction as a way to understand
emergent identities, to develop new ways of thinking, and to imagine new forms of
social action. Agency, then, stems from the use of contradiction as a means of self-
determination and identity, of transcendence of seemingly forced or dichotomous
choices, and counter-imaginations of a better future.
