This philosopher was attacked for writing using a "casual mode of allusion" in the essay "The Professor of Parody." This philosopher claimed that people are only recognized as subjects and persons when they are "culturally intelligible," a theory which she applied in a close study of the case of David Reimer. A book by this philosopher introduces the idea of a "heterosexual matrix" and critiques (*) Foucault's introduction to the journals of Hercule Barbin in its section "Subversive Bodily Acts." That book by this philosopher argues that gender is not based on an internal identity but is created through repeated expressive acts, a concept which it calls "gender performativity." For 10 points, name this gender theorist, the author of Bodies that Matter and Gender Trouble.
