In this episode, I turn my attention to Judith Butler's "Undoing Gender." This is a collection of essays, so it is difficult to summarize the book. However, we can comfortably say that it explores what it means for gender to become undone, and the undoing that is done through gender.

Ngl, from a glimpse of your channel I thought these were audiobooks so I just kept your channel in the back of my mind but I appreciate how highly detailed and informative your videos are and I'll definitely be binging them over this quarantine period
32:14 - Chapter 3 42:16 - Chapter 4
I got to know your channel a week ago, it's helping me a lot. 🙏 Great work.
Thank you so much! 💕 This channel is gold

@@TheoryPhilosophy Fair enough. It can be tough to read Butler. Though some chapters surely are easier than others. I started with "Gender is Burning" from "Bodies that Matter" and then went on to her workings on Melancholia & Gender. However, I did read Freuds text on Melancholia before :) Thanks so much for making these videos. You are great !

Undoing Gender was the first academic book I ever read. It fundamentally changed my life. It was certainly difficult but really, looking back, it’s not that difficult. I’ve certainly read much more difficult things since. I wonder why people fixate on “Judith’s” difficulty.
I’m going to sleep to this gn
Really hard to listen to you. Content is good but you repeat some things or words, you stutter too much, I just wanna know things, please let me this takin sooooo looong until you finally got a point.
