Judith Butler

            Judith Butler’s article got me thinking about how other counties view the queer theory. America can be at the forefront of these views but they can also be behind other countries. Canada has gay marriage but other countries do not value this civil union. It’s not too far of a reach to say that since gay/ lesbian marriages are not accepted that society is still trying to force people into stereotypes.

            Over the past 5 years many advances have been made with countries allowing civil unions between gays and lesbians. In the next 10 years I can see many more countries allowing civil unions while there will be some countries that are still completely against it. The acceptance is going to start with women entering the workplaces that are dominated by men. Gradually women will go against the stereotypes which will give gays and lesbians room to go against the stereotypes as well.
