  • Are ‘facials’ misogynistic

    Richard G Heck, Richard Kimberly HeckARTICLEPorn Studies2026Referências: 6

    So-called ‘facial’ cumshots, when a man ejaculates onto a woman’s face, are very common in heterosexual pornography. While they are frequently said to be degrading and misogynistic, the fact that women are usually shown as enjoying this act should make us think again. Facials may instead be rooted in male insecurity: of a fear that an aspect of how men orgasm – semen – is disgusting to women. By contrast, the fantasy, which pornography makes vivi…

  • Does Pornography Presuppose Rape Myths

    Open AccessRichard G HeckARTICLEPacific philosophical quarterly2024

    Rae Langton and Caroline West argue that pornography silences women by presupposing misogynistic attitudes, such as that women enjoy being raped. More precisely, they claim that a somewhat infamous pictorial, ‘Dirty Pool’, makes such presuppositions, and that it is typical in this respect. I argue for four claims. (1) There are empirical reasons to doubt that women are silenced in the way that Langton and West claim they are. (2) There is no evid…

  • Pornography and accommodation

    Richard G HeckARTICLEInquiry2021

    In ‘Scorekeeping in a Pornographic Language Game’, Rae Langton and Caroline West borrow ideas from David Lewis to attempt to explain how pornography might subordinate and silence women. Pornography is supposed to express certain misogynistic claims implicitly, through presupposition, and to convey them indirectly, through accommodation. I argue that the appeal to accommodation cannot do the sort of work Langton and West want it to do: Their case …

  • Julius Caesar and Basic Law V

    Open AccessRichard G Heck, Richard Kimberley HeckARTICLEdialectica2005

    In Die Grundlagen, Frege takes the Julius Caesar problem to eliminate HP – the number of Fs is the same as the number of Gs if, and only if, the Fs and Gs are in one-one correspondence – as an explanation of the notion of cardinal number and, therefore, as the most fundamental principle of arithmetic. But similar problems arise with respect to the infamous Basic Law V. The present paper investigates Frege's many discussions of the Caesar problem,…

  • Grundgesetze der Arithmetic I §10

    Richard G HeckARTICLEPhilosophia Mathematica1999

    In section 10 of Grundgesetze, Frege confronts an indeterm inacy left by his stipulations regarding his ‘smooth breathing’, from which names of valueranges are formed. Though there has been much discussion of his arguments, it remains unclear what this indeterminacy is; why it bothers Frege; and how he proposes to respond to it. The present paper attempts to answer these questions by reading section 10 as preparatory for the (fallacious) proof, g…

  • Tarski, Truth, and Semantics

    Richard G Heck, Richard G Heck JrARTICLEThe Philosophical Review1997Citada por: 3

    No one denies that Tarski made a major contribution to one particular problem about truth, namely, the resolution of the semantic paradoxes—although, of course, there is disagreement about whether he provided the correct solution. But some philosophers have suggested that Tarski also made a significant contribution to an-other project, that of providing semantic theories for natural languages. Hartry Field (2001), for example, credits Tarski with…
