The Limitation of Butler
Heterosexual assumptions from Lacan to Freud represent a very limiting framework for Butler because then you're just dealing with male, female and then whatever defines the two is very limited in and of themselves. So what ultimately happens is you have these thing called the law, which intervenes and any points where people fall outside of the normative framework and then tries to get them back in.

If you heard anything you don't like, tell me about it.
