"What we understand as natural is always already inscribed within a field of power relations and historical contingencies."
More from Butler, Judith
"Gender is performatively constituted by the very expressions that are said to be its results."
"There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender; that identity is performatively constituted by the expressions themselves."
"If one 'is' a woman, that is surely not all one is."
"The body is not a being, but a variable boundary, a surface whose permeability is politically regulated."
