Judith Butler

is an American  philosopher well know in the world the who are consider “ different” . And gender theorist whose work has influenced political philosophy, ethics and the fields of feminist, queer and literary theory.

Academically, Butler is well known for her books:” Feminism and the Subversion of Identity” and Bodies That Matter: On the Discursive Limits of "Sex", which question notions of gender and develop her theory of gender performativity.

 this theory now plays a major role in feminist and queer scholarship. she has also actively supported lesbian and gay rights movements and been outspoken on many contemporary political issues.

Butler’s work has been extraordinarily influential in feminist and queer theory, cultural studies, and continental philosophy. Yet her contribution to a range of other disciplines, such as psychoanalysis, literary, film, and performance studies as well as visual arts has also been significant.

Even though she read very complex and is very difficult of understand, I consider it of great interest and relevance of social issues addressed by this author, because they allow us aware of that addresses thematic and that allows us to problematize somehow what is so "normal" , for example the belief that certain gendered behaviors are natural , theme as lesbianism, masculinity.
