 performative, not performance. that means we can't really change it as freely 
 
+>It's not an identity from which a pattern of action originates. Rather, it just is the pattern of action. If you wear gender-coded clothing, style your hair in a gender-coded way, etc., you're not expressing the manhood or womanhood that you hold deep down. You're simply acting out the expectations of a male or female.

 It explores how sex and gender are *constructed* and *regulated* by **power**, **knowledge**, and **discourse**. Some key points are:
 
 - Butler *challenges the concept of sex as a natural and fixed category*. She argues that sex is a social construct that is shaped by power and norms, and that it has effects on how bodies are classified and regulated.

+## Social Construction of Gender
+Kessler and McKenna's work was influenced by Harold Garfinkel in ethnomethodology (especially his analysis of Agnes in Studies in Ethnomethodology); [[Stanley Milgram]], their social psychology professor; and the sociologist Peter McHugh, McKenna's professor. Kessler and McKenna were the first to argue that the distinction between "gender" and "sex" is a socially constructed one and the latter (defined by biological markers) should not be privileged. 
+
+Their articulation of what later became known as the social construction of gender was part of the foundation for works of ultimately more well-known gender theorists, [[Judith Butler]] (1990), [Anne Fausto-Sterling] (1992), and Kate Bornstein (1994). Kessler and McKenna's concept of "gender attribution" predated William Zimmerman and Candace West's concept of doing gender and Butler's concept of gender performativity.
