Abstract
In response to the combined comments of Padini Nirmal, Ingrid L. Nelson and Lyla Mehta, and their own considerable contributions to feminist research on political ecology, I have found myself thinking of several paradoxes and contradictions that we all face in doing FPE. I do not have time to go into all the issues that their responses suggest but I would like to take this space to explore some of them.
