Judith Butler is talking about gender performance and how anything that you do to express your gender which is not innate but is the result of human cultural ideas of gender – you are “performing” your gender. Thus I perform my gender whenever I decide to pick out the cloths i’m going to wear for today since my sense of fashion is derived from cultural ideas of my gender instead of my own innate biological disposition.

  1. This has me wondering, do we want to alienate totally from gender performance, or just certain parts? and how will those parts be decided? would it be based on the individual or the masses?
