Expanding on Simone de Beauvoir’s assertion that “one is not born, but, rather, becomes a woman” (de Beauvoir, The Second Sex, 27), Judith Butler maintains that gender differences are not biological or natural, instead they are socially constructed. In other words, gender identity is tenuously instituted over time through the stylised repetition of bodily gestures, movements, and enactments, which work together to create the illusion that gendered identity is natural and stable. As Butler states, gender is “a constructed identity, a performative accomplishment […] the stylised repetition of acts over time, and not a seamless identity” (Butler, Performative Acts, 520). These gendered performances are acted out in accordance with dominant ideals and discourses, which provide a framework for our activities. In week four we explored Butler’s theories of gender performativity in relation to the construction of celebrity identity, but how do these accounts influence everyday life? Examine scholarly material on gender identity presented in the course so far in relation to YOUR OWN social media presence. You may choose to focus on selfies and other images that you post on a single platform such as Instagram, or you might like to take a multimedia approach and look at your self-presentation across different platforms or different formats. Either way, you should provide a close critical analysis of a sample of relevant images/texts. Remember, even though you are using your own social media identity as the object of analysis, you will still need to maintain a critical scholarly approach.While the theoretical foundation of your analysis needs to be Butler, you may weave Foucault’s work on technologies of the self, and any other relevant material covered in the course so far, into your discussion.Reminder: You may use any or all of the texts relating to gender performativity to address this topic. However, you must read and employ Butler's "Performative Acts and Gender Constitution" as the foundation of your analysis. It is linked below.
