Abstract
Thirty-five years after the publication of Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity (1990)—a text that definitively transformed our understanding of gender by critically deconstructing its supposed essentialist link to sex and offering a well-reasoned performative theory of its social construction, Judith Butler returns with a much-needed essay for this current moment of cultural and political conflict: Who’s Afraid of Gender? (2024). She begins her reflection with a question: “How is it possible that someone could be afraid of gender?” (Butler, 2024, p. 11)
