Right, I think because it comes from the libido it focuses on sex primarily, but when you really look at it as a whole, "queer theory" is just sophistry. It's just being able to undermine any system or behavior that you don't like with linguistic tricks in order to avoid confronting the pathologies that led to you becoming who you are.

Because any kind of established base of common knowledge lends itself to criticizing such a blatantly narcissistic view, that common knowledge needs to be challenged. In lieu of changing one's perspective to meet facts, the only other option is to inject doubt into the ability to ascertain fact.

Whatever the queer person's personal failures are in life; those become the spaces they fuck up because they wanted to be welcomed into them. Ironically they still seek acceptance from a larger outside group, they are in no way individualistic; they just try to change the criteria for acceptance to be whatever list of traits they possess, rather than working on themselves.

TL;DR don't over-respect them by acting like this ideology has a point. This is just another way of trying to fit in.
