Judith Butler delves into the materiality of sex and sexuality by examining how heterosexual hegemony shapes our understanding of bodies, sex, and gender. Through her analysis, she challenges existing theories of gender and emphasizes the importance of the physical body in these discussions. The work presents a thought-provoking reworking of how societal power dynamics influence the very essence of our identities and experiences related to gender.
