À propos de cet audio

Welcome to our third episode of Gender Trouble, the podcast where we dive deep into Judith Butler’s iconic challenge to identity, normativity, and the very meaning of gender. In this series, we explore how gender isn’t what we are—but what we do, again and again.

Today, we turn to the second section of Gender Trouble: Prohibition, Psychoanalysis, and the Production of the Heterosexual Matrix (pp. 45–100). Here, Butler brings together Freud, Lacan, and Foucault to examine how gender and sexuality are shaped not by inner truths, but by cultural prohibitions and psychic structures. We unpack the concept of the "heterosexual matrix"—the grid that organizes bodies, desires, and identities—and consider how power works through language, repression, and the formation of the subject itself.
