Notions

  • Queer

     at the heart of this concept is the deconstruction of sex, gender, and from the body and sexual enjoyment as both are normalized, none of these topoi being natural or biological. Sex ("biological") and gender (sexual identity), based on the masculine / feminine binary, are fictions, constructions of a dominant discourse marked by its heterosexuality. The subject itself is fictitious and it will be a question of destroying any essentialism declared or hidden in the modes of thinking. The polysemy of the "queer" movement marks its dynamism, while theorizing: the bursting of pleasures, the demand for a sexual nomadism, for a mutant sexuation
