Queer Theory

  1. The idea that identity is not fixed and does not determine who we are.

  2. Judith Butler

    • Argues that sex (male or female) is seen to cause gender (masculine or feminine) which is then seen to cause desire (towards the other gender)
      • Biological Determinism
  3. Michel Foucault

    • people do not have a real identity, instead it is a discourse they use to talk about themselves. An identity is communicated by interaction but its not fixed and is constantly shifting.
