Genderfucking
Genderfuck, as a form of gender identity or gender expression, uses parody and exaggeration to call attention to its transgression of gender roles, seeking to expose them as artificial[2], oftentimes by manipulating one's appearance to create gender dissonance or ambiguity in stark opposition of the gender binary. A parody (ˈpɛɹədiː US, [ˈpaɹədiː] UK) in contemporary usage is a work created to mock comment on or poke fun at an original work its subject The gender binary is the idea that human gender exists in two forms masculine and feminine In this way, genderfuck shares many characteristics with genderqueer, although they are two separate concepts. Genderqueer and intergender are catchall terms for gender identities other than man and woman
Examples of genderfuck in relation to physical performance or appearance include people prominently displaying secondary sex characteristics of different sexes together, such as breasts and a beard. Secondary sex characteristics are traits that distinguish the two Sexes of a species but that are not directly part of the Reproductive system. The breast is the upper Ventral region of an animal’s Torso, particularly that of Mammals including Human beings.
Genderfuck is generally an intentional attempt to present a confusing gender identity which contributes to dismantling the perception of a gender binary. Gender identity (or core gender identity) is a person's own sense of Identification as Male or Female. The gender binary is the idea that human gender exists in two forms masculine and feminine
Genderfuck implies not only the instigation of confusion for the sake of breaking down the binary, but also leaving more fluid room to be self-expressive and self-explorative with less expectations of a norm and more room to play via being radically honest. Though genderfuck is often associated with queer identities such as homosexuality and bisexuality, people of any sexual orientation may practice genderfuck. Queer has traditionally meant odd or unusual but is now also used to refer to anyone who is not heteronormative. Homosexuality refers to sexual behavior with or attraction to people of the same sex or to a Homosexual orientation. Bisexuality refers to sexual behavior with or attraction to people of both sexes or to a bisexual orientation Sexual orientation is believed to refer to "an enduring pattern of emotional romantic and/or sexual attractions to men women or both sexes
History
Genderfuck is a politics of identity stemming from the identity politics movements of the 1950s and 1960s, a guiding principal of which is the idea that the personal is political. Identity politics is Political action to advance the interests of members of a group whose members are oppressed by virtue of a shared and marginalized Identity (such [3]
The term dates at least to 1974, when an article by Christopher Lonc, entitled "Genderfuck and Its Delights", appeared in the magazine Gay Sunshine. Lonc wrote "I want to criticize and poke fun at the roles of women and of men too. I want to try and show how not-normal I can be. I want to ridicule and destroy the whole cosmology of restrictive sex roles and sexual identification. "[4]
