Gender ideology
Gender ideology i.a. argues that innate biological sex of an individual is irrelevant, and that everyone should have a choice to select whom he or she feels to be or wants to become (man, woman, otherwise sexually or gender-differentiated, respectfully).[1] According to this demagoguery, biological division of sexes into males and females places unnecessary restriction on humans, because it allegedly creates so called 'gender stereotypes' of thinking and behavioral paterns in the society that later lead into various forms of 'discrimination'. Gender ideology therefore claims to be entitled to redefine the common understanding of the sexuality of humans from the biological and medical perspective onto the socio-culturally created artificial construct of 'gender,' i.e. onto the subject of purely subjective perception and feeling of oneself so that everyone can "freely choose" who he or she is or whom wants to be wrt. this so-called 'gender'.[2] The fundamental work of gender ideology is Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity by Judith Butler.[3]
