Gender
For Butler, gender is a kind of
persistent impersonation that passes as the real. Gender refers to the role of
a male or female in society, known as a gender role, or an individual's concept
of themselves, or gender identity. Occasionally, an individual’s genetically
assigned sex does not correspond with their gender identity. These individuals
might refer to themselves as transgender, non-binary, or gender-nonconforming.
This is called empty love. The theory described by Robert Sternberg, called the Triangular Theory of Love, indicates that love can have 3 components: intimacy, passion and decision /commitment.
The intimacy component refers to feelings of connection, closeness, and union in sentimental relationships. The component of passion refers to romantic impulses, physical attractiveness, and sexual intercourse.
The decision /commitment component refers first to the decision to love someone, and then to the decision to keep that commitment. This component is also called empty love.
