Butler talks a lot about gender identity and the “roles” that males and females play in society. It is really quite fixed in our society. However, one of my first experiences outside of this norm was with anime. Often times in Anime, they will have female characters take more prominent male roles. In this certain experience i was watching “The Adventures of Sinbad” and in the last episode they get lost in some foreign country where literally all of the gender roles are swapped. It is ruled by a queen, with all the women comprising the military and managing factions while the men do all of the domesticated work. Alongside a very original idea, this presents an interesting and new outook on how things could have been. Its also pretty funny to watch these confused males try to navigate this societal structure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
