The cyborg has been foundational for feminist theorizations ever since Donna Haraway's pioneering and influential 1985 article, "A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and Socialist Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century,"
and indeed the cyborg figure is ubiquitous throughout the assorted texts in Reload.
Haraway's cyborg feminism hopes that a cyborg identity will allow women to escape the problems enabled by the tired dualisms of patriarchal society--by most accounts making Haarway a cyberfeminist avant la lettre.
