My Gender Troubles is a 67 minute documentary which confronts and explores the myths and stereotypes about non-gender conforming, or butch, lesbians. The women portrayed in this film thoughtfully examine and challenge society's assumptions about what it means to be male or female. Their struggles reveal how everyone, including heterosexuals, is pressured to conform and measure up to useless and restricting gender standards. Their challenging work results in more freedom for everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, to be their authentic self.
