About this listen
In this episode, we explore the first chapter of Gender Trouble, “Subjects of Sex/Gender/Desire” (pages 3–44). Butler interrogates the assumed coherence between sex, gender, and desire, raising a critical question: Who qualifies as a subject of feminism? Drawing from Foucault, Kristeva, Lacan, and Wittig, she deconstructs the binary frameworks that have shaped feminist thought and opens up a space to rethink what it means to be gendered. Join us as we unpack the destabilization of identity, the critique of representational politics, and the performative nature of gender itself.
