Judith Butler discusses the concept of "gender performativity" in the attached video. She explains that gender is a social construct and is performed through behaviors and mannerisms that are socially defined as masculine or feminine. She gives the examples of how walking styles and communication styles can perform gender. The discussion assignment asks students to either discuss how they see gender performativity in their own life through a personal photo, or analyze how it is portrayed in a piece of media through examples from a movie, documentary, music, or video game.
