feel like the main points could have been made much more succinctly at times but to be a yapper is to perform

It's a groundbreaking work but half the time two pages could have been two paragraphs, and two paragraphs should have been two pages. I feel like I would have been satisfied reading the last 15 pages, although the rest of the book is still valuable if only as a historical records of the contemporary ideas this stood against.

My oh my,,, this required a lot of chewing. A lot of digestion.. im clearly not well read enough to truly suck up all of the goodness but even in my blind state: Butler spitting the facts. Particularly fascinated by the concept of incest as a means of transferring sex to gender..,.,., needs a re read but only after a little more education . Knocked a star off, because my god is their style dense. it's actually incredible, but I am not educated enough to untwirl that spaghetti to its totality.
