Judith Butler no Brasil | Quem tem medo de falar sobre gênero? [legendado]

the world that the Conservatives want to destroy the the gay lesbian world the trans world the feminist world it's already too powerful they have no chance of destroying it and they actually know that it is not only very powerful but it's becoming more powerful it's becoming more accepted and the more accepted it is the more and rage they are I think that there are two ways of approaching it one is perhaps theological and the other one is more political although the two approaches meet in the end the theological problem is that if you believe in

the Bible and the Bible says that God created man and woman from birth and created them distinctly and gave man dominion over women then you believe that men are supposed to assume a certain social role in society and women have their social role and marriage and reproduction should stay within heterosexuality and all of these things are not only natural but mandated by God so for those who believe that it's very hard when women decide to have children on their own of single mothers or when gay or lesbian people decide to get married and those rights

are given to them or sexual orientation turns out not always to be heterosexual or where trans people want to change the gender that is assigned to them at birth or women want to use reproductive technology either just stop having babies or to have babies when they otherwise can't all of these freedoms that we associate with the feminist movement with the LGBTQ movement are ones that destabilize our more traditional idea of the family masculine domination and the idea that the heterosexual that heterosexual marriage and heterosexual reproduction is somehow mandated by God or by the Bible and

it's very hard for people some people who have enjoyed their dominance and enjoyed the hegemonic character of heterosexual marriage to understand that other people might want to get married who are not heterosexual or people don't want to get married at all but want to live together and have children or women might want to have children on their own through the use of reproductive technology or sex workers might want to have rights for the work that they do and Pensions for their their old age all of these kinds of claims that have emerged from the feminist

and LGBTQ eye movement are rattle the heterosexual family but we know that there are there are heterosexuals who are married and to have children who also embrace gay and lesbian marriage or embrace transgender people or embrace intersex people or embracing all mothers or a reproductive technology or think people should have a right to reproductive technology as they wish so not all heterosexuals are that defensive all right not all heterosexual families think oh every family should look exactly like ours so there's a difference between those who want to mandate the social form the social organization of

their intimate lives and claim that everyone should have the same kind of life that they are living and those who accept that there is gender and sexual diversity in the world the world that the Conservatives want to destroy the the gay lesbian world the trans world a feminist world it's already too powerful they have no chance of destroying it and they actually know that it is not only very powerful but it's becoming more powerful it's becoming more accepted and the more accepted it is the more enraged they are but what we're seeing now in this

contemporary sexual this contemporary sexual conservatism or what we might understand as a reactionary sexual politics is a an effort to take us back to a world that will never come back and that's my belief so we shouldn't be worried that all of our steps will be reversed they're trying but they will not win because we because our side is on the side of greater acceptance greater understanding it offers more recognition to more people and people want to live with freedom they want to live with joy they don't want to live with shame and they don't

want to live with censorship so we have we have joined freedom on our side and that is why we will eventually win
