Abstract

Postmodern sociologist Lyotard, Baudrillard, Derrida, Myerson, Haraway, Walker, Halberstam, Tong discuss on gender dichotomies deconstruction, and their negation. Lyotard introduces syntagm postmodern fairytale, Baudrillard simulacrum, Derrida deconstruction, Haraway cybernetisation and transgender, Walker womenism and progressive ecowomenism, Halberstam feminine masculinity, Judith Butler queer theory, Spivak negation of postcolonial oppression, Yuval Davis transversal politics of identity, Tong ethic of care. Postmodern fairytale of Lyotard has a goal to indicate on prevailing attributes of post modernity, mirrored in different artistic expressions, installations, different forms of activism. Postmodern fairytale points to possible danger, cataclysm, accident, and catastrophes that could annihilate human existence, whilst Baudrillard introduces dimension of unsustainability of universally established truth because the multiplicity of truth that could be simulated, in virtual spaces. There is a play of different truths, the truth is found in searching, in the de (con) struction of former truth to those that are relived in free play of designators praxis, and each are widened by Cyber Manifesto, with the introduction of transgender principle, and final foundation of feminine masculinity, as postmodern term butch feminism, queer identity that involves differences between man and women according to Halberstam and Butler. Future mirrors need for foundation of female principle.
