Description: Patriarchal discourses in modernity have positioned intuition as a feminine process. This has resulted in a systemic devaluing of intuition through the privileging of its constituted masculine counterpart, objective rationality. A critical re-thinking aimed at recovering the social value and importance of intuition seeks to challenge this false binary relationship. In exploring intuition through its relational processes we redefine it as a socially produced form of knowing that is embodied and integrative. Our research demonstrates that intentional intuitive knowers live out critical, reflexive and creative forms of feminist resistance and transformation to build inclusive ways of knowing and being in the world.
