"The Repressive Hypothesis" wherein Foucault argues that through taking sexuality from something we must be silent about to a discursive model the powers that control the language (defined by who is listening and who is speaking as in the scientist and the studied or the priest and the confessor) begins to bake in power dynamics in the ways we speak about sex. Institutionalizing sexual dialogue reinforces power.
