Butler talks about that in the interview Seth is asking about. She says she sees some anti-feminism in queer theory with no elaboration and then goes into what shag says here, as if the two things were separate. I think the explanation is this was early on when Butler had just begun to respond to the queer theory she was discovering she unwittingly helped start.
