Abstract
Foucault's work has been enormously influential in feminist theory on the relationship between normalization and sex/gender; Woman's Relationship with Herself: Gender, Foucault, and Therapy considers this relationship in the context of personal therapy.Helen O'Grady's driving question is: "how can personal therapy assist women to counteract practices of self-policing?"In the first two chapters, she sets out to illustrate the dominance of the practice of self-policing in the contemporary West, and the relationship between self-policing and gender.O'Grady's concept of self-policing, which she defines as "a range of debilitating internal practices" 1 is derived from Foucauldian feminists Jana Sawicki 2 and Sandra Lee Bartky 3 and Foucault's Discipline & Punish.For O'Grady the practice of selfpolicing involves individuals taking up a range of dominant norms and discourses, such as the norm of femininity, individual autonomy, and individual responsibility, and engaging in an unremitting practice of assessing one's performance against these norms.Drawing on feminist elaborations of Foucault's work in Discipline and Punish, O'Grady argues that a range of socio-historical forces have resulted in selfpolicing being relatively more prevalent among women and comparatively more damaging for them.In part, this is because it helps tie women to norms and practices that "play a key role in maintaining aspects of women's subordination". 4 At the same time women are "vulnerable to heightened experiences of self-policing" because of "the absence of a cultural context" that encourages a balance between caring for oneself and caring for others. 5 Women are incited to neglect practices of self-care and to "monitor rigorously their thoughts, feelings, desires, speech and actions to ensure conformity to accepted rules or the approval of others". 6O'Grady 1 O'Grady, Woman's Relationship with Herself: 4 2

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
