Queer Theory - identity is not fixed and does not determine who we are.
You have a fixed sex (male or female) … upon witch culture builds a stable gender (masculinity or femininity)… which determines your desire sexually.
Judith Butler argues three unrelated points which effect none of the others;
You have a body, You may perform an identity, You may have desires.
This theory allows for transvestites, pansexuals, gay and bisexuals and the gender behaviours seem more 'natural' and therefore, equal in still his homophobic society.
