Question

A thinker from this movement argues that narcissists who identify themselves through mirrors thus destroy themselves. A book by another author from this movement analyzes sex through his concept of “the look.” “Lived Experience” titles the second (10[1])volume of a book by a feminist (-5[1])author from this movement that posits the title group as the “Other” and claims (10[1])“one is not born, (10[1])but becomes, a woman.” A thinker from this movement who used a stiff waiter to illustrate “bad faith” had a relationship with the author of The Second Sex and wrote Being and Nothingness. For 10 points, name this philosophical movement of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre. ■END■ (10[1]0[2])

ANSWER: existentialism [accept word forms like existentialist; prompt on continental philosophy; prompt on feminism or feminist philosophy or second-wave feminism before “feminist” is read by asking “what other philosophical movement is that feminist thinker associated with?”]
