Are feminist foreign policy models "spreading" in an imperialistic way? Are states reacting to "feminism" as an international security threat? The fact that many EU countries are pursuing and paying too much attention to this "trend", could it be seen as a sign of untreated coloniality of power and knowledge? Are feminists from Euro-American spheres of influence asking states to "better" and "oversee" the treatment of the considered "subaltern" women in developing countries? Is the source of patriarchy ever really challenged or are we just playing along to fix its problems' symptoms? 
Do we have clarity over the outcomes of our call to include the F word in Foreign Policy? 
A reflection on this week's panel discussion "Hacia una política exterior con perspectiva de género: Aportes desde las teorías feministas de las Relaciones Internacionales" organized by Dirección de la Mujer y Asuntos de Género, Cancillería Argentina and featuring Mariel R. Lucero (Mendoza, Argentina), Cyntia Enloe (United States), Marysia Zalewski (United Kingdom), Ann Towns (Sweden) and Heather Smith (Canada).
