Part 4/6:
One of the central frustrations voiced pertains to the performative nature of gender and style expressions. The individual referenced illustrates this point with a quote from Kristen Stewart, who unapologetically expresses a desire to push boundaries in a playful, exaggerated manner: "I want to do the gayest effing thing you've ever seen in your life..." Stewart’s candidness about her willingness to adopt stereotypically masculine features—growing a mustache, sporting a happy trail, unbuttoning her pants—serves as a critique of performative masculinity and the lengths to which people go to challenge norms.
