Sažetak
The article analyses the catholic resistance to gender theories, through an analyses of the book of the catholic author Gabriela Kuby, very influent in this subject. The conclusion consists in theological annotations aiming to loosen the tension emerging through discussions regarding gender in catholic circles. Today, gender and queer studies should be understood as a challenge, even when not explicitly hostile towards the Church, which is often implied from the Ecclesial standpoint. This implies a refrain from the stereotypical ideological animadversions, and a capacity for a positive understanding of these studies, as a potential in the development of the proper
doctrine.
Therefore, it is presupposed that the central intentions of the gender studies should be disclosed in their strong parts, instead of closing ourselves in front of their weaknesses, or excluding them completely. This process of opening sometimes reveals our weaknesses, which are often closed in order to defend our own opinion.
