[Feminisms of the XXIst Century] Authors M. Xosé Agra Universidade de Santiago de Compostela Keywords: gender, identity, subjectivity, normality, tradition, family Abstract What political solutions can be found for the new forms of subjectivity? How must feminist theory interpret the will to break down borders and, at the same time, the need for normality? Postmodernists are skeptical towards the traditional notions of identity; the same boundaries that define the subject not only construct but also exclude. We should oppose the dominant interpretations of normality and accept other possible alternatives to the traditional models. We need to go beyond the binary gender system and sexual orientation and be open-minded, following a philosophy of freedom.
