Trying to piece together the context in which I wrote “Feminist Poststructuralism and Discourse Analysis” (Gavey, 1989) has taken me back (almost) to childhood! Why did I go into psychology in the first place? And why was I then such a reluctant psychologist? The article grew out of my attempts to find a different way of doing psychology, after 8 or 9 years of studying and wrestling with the discipline. It is partly a personal story, but also a story about significant shifts in the production of knowledge that were taking place at the time.
