Feminist and Queer Theory

This is the most interesting topic so far. Based from personal experiences, this topic is the easiest to digest.


From its definition, Queer Theory is the approach to literary and cultural study that rejects traditional categories of gender and sexuality. Nowadays, the LGBT community is being heard in the community but decades and decades before being queer was said to be a disgrace in the community. There are a lot of TV shows that now has gay men and women which only means that bit by bit, they are being accepted by this generation.

The Feminist theory aims to study the nature of gender inequality and to promote women's rights, interests and issues. Just like queer men and women, straight women weren't accepted as much as they are now. Before, women were considered unequal with men. They weren't allowed to do things that men can do. Luckily women now are not being discriminated. Yes, there still are a few gender discriminations happening here and in other parts of the world but thankfully there isn't as much.
