The notions of culture, power and gender/subject formation that dominate Bordo's writing arise in some degree from poststructuralist thought. Susan Hekman points out that ``(l)ike an increasing number of contemporary feminist theorists (Bordo) argues for a selective use of postmodern theories'' and one way Bordo's work can be seen in a poststructuralist/postmodernist light is through her usage of Foucauldian methodology.
