Abstract
Ever since the inception of Jacques Derrida’s theory of Deconstruction, binary oppositions have collapsed resulting in rejection of absolutism in any form. Though his seminal lecture “Structure, Sign and Play in the Discourses of Human Sciences” (1966) was language-oriented yet it came to be applied to all fields of knowledge like literature, politics, sociology till it also embraced Gender Studies into its bosom. Gender and sexuality were rigid binary structures which were dismantled with the advent of modern strains of thought. Gender has always been problematic since it is regarded as a binary structure although it is fluid in nature.
