In this article, Segal states that she is aware that she paints a picture of Butler that draws her away from ‘that now mythical Butlerian … a Queer icon always expected to jiggle and fragment’ (p. 386), by reframing her as one who attends to notions of interiority, ethics of care and politics of belongings. Here Butler is less antinormative and anti-identitarian, and more concerned with the way social norms enable some lives to be liveable, some grievable, and how social norms might be reconfigured via questioning the relationship between theory, politics and social transformation (Butler, 2004). Thus Segal promotes a more optimistic picture for critical psychologists where it is possible to draw on the insight from Butler and other scholars described as queer theorists in order to explore the psychosocial conditions of gender, sexuality, race and minoritized political action, without giving up on identities all together.
