Here is where we are caught up in one of the complaints of postmodernism.
.
Feminists talk of "words and things" claiming that we need ways of communicating our ideas and experiences.
.
That's right.
.
Postmodernist writers speak of language games. Games in the sense that each one has its own vocabulary. Football terminology doesn't work well in baseball or chess; but, each one is a game with its own rules and words. The same is true in society when some of us are talking the language game of our own take on reality.
.
The watchword of postmodernism is incommensurable.
.
You can be as upset with postmodernism as you like; but, we--each one of us--are all postmoderns. Like it or lump it.

.
It is a time in which social justice is on the block.
