The theory of gender aims to be our new gospel, carrying the "good news" that male and female are merely historical and social constructs, and therefore can be deconstructed.

Bernice Levay maintains an equal distance between the supporters and opponents of gender theory. She wonders: at the heart of gender theory, in this promise of a world where there will no longer be men or women but beings that have been attributed to a supposed primal neutrality, is there not a will to clip the wings of heterosexual desire, to exorcise the ghost of the attraction that the two genders inspire in one another?

Is not gender theory the latest disguise of hatred for Love, the final version of a puritanism that dares not speak its name and uses a progressive pretext?
