* '''Queer Theory''' — An approach to literary and cultural study that rejects traditional categories of gender and sexuality.
* '''Heteronormativity''' — The social assumption that "Heterosexuality" (Straightness) is the "Default" or "Normal" way to be.
* '''Performativity''' — Judith Butler's idea that gender is not what you *are*, but what you *do* (a repetitive performance).
* '''Cisgender''' — A person whose gender identity matches the sex they were assigned at birth.
* '''Intersectionality''' — How being queer overlaps with race, class, and disability (essential for queer theory).
* '''Michel Foucault''' — The philosopher who showed how "Medical and Legal Systems" created the modern idea of the "Homosexual" as a "Type of person."
* '''Judith Butler''' — The author of "Gender Trouble," the founding text of queer theory.
* '''The Pink Triangle''' — An old Nazi symbol of shame that was "Reclaimed" by the queer community as a symbol of pride and resistance.
* '''Coming Out''' — The process of revealing one's queer identity (which queer theory often criticizes as a "Mandatory confession").
