'Masculine and feminine roles are not biologically fixed but socially constructed'. Judith Butler's quotation challenges biological determinism, and is supported by increased representation of gender fluidity in popular culture and heightened disillusionment with the gender binary. Despite many hoping for a world that transcends gender and sex, others hold that these concepts support feminism and both transgender and cisgender identities, while being liberatory and affirming. Should we live in a society free from gender, and could we ever see a world in which the concept is obsolete?
