Allison and I seem to have different interpretations of Ahmed’s criticism of the pursuit of happy object and the promise of happiness. Ahmed does not argue that all happy objects “inherently fails to fulfill the promise of happiness” (Wong‚ 1). The criticism of happy objects does not reside in the objects themselves but our relationships with them. The relationship that we tend to have with happy objects is a possessive one.
