Ep. 235: Judith Butler's "Gender Trouble" (Part Two)

By Mark Linsenmayer, Wes Alwan, Seth Paskin, Dylan Casey

More Gender Trouble (1990) with Jennifer Hansen. We get into the metaphysics of substance (is gender an attribute that a person has, or is there a better way to describe the situation?), performatives, Beauvoir vs. Irigaray on femininity, and the available mechanisms for changing gender norms.
