    Analysis Of Queers Are Like Jews, Aren T They By Janet R. Jakobsen

    Janet R. Jakobsen’s essay, Queers Are Like Jews, Aren’t They? Analogy and Alliance Politics, discusses in depth what it means to queer something and to do Jewish. Jakobsen explains the relationship between these two actions and encourages the process of “thinking through the possibilities of playing off multiple norms” (p 82). She is able to do this with the help of a reading by Stacy Wolf on Barbara Streisand’s queer performances. I will look closely at Jakobsen’s argument about Barbara Streisand’s nose and her decision not to change it, while also specifying Jakobsen’s interpretation of how Streisand differs from Sander Gilman’s account of “The Jewish Nose.”…

    Emily Skidmore in her excerpt Constructing the “Good Transexual” Christine Jorgensen Whiteness and Heteronormativity in the Mid-Twentieth-Century Press published by Feminist Studies 37 covers the role that race, class, as well as heteronormative behavior play in the public perception of trans individuals. In her work, Skidmore utilizes many different stories of transgender females including one of the most iconic figures of transexuality in America, Christine Jorgensen. Throughout the passage she references Jorgensen as the model of a “good transexual” and how her acceptance for the most part had to do with her alignment with heteronormativity as well as her race and social status. To further prove her point she utilizes the stories of transwomen…

    Homosexuality In The Fosters By Mariana Foster

    When thinking of religion there’s many things that come to mind. Religion is a very hard topic to understand because there is just so many questions and not too many answers to go along with the question. Religion can be judgemental; judging people’s sexuality, the way that others choose to live their lives, and making it seem that most things are wrong to do, but in the bible itself mentioned in Matthew 7: 1-2 “Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you”.…

    Summary Of D 'Emilio's' Capitalism And Gay Identity

    In the reading, Capitalism and Gay Identity, D’Emilio challenges the idea that gay men and lesbians have not always existed, but emerged because of free labor created by capitalists. However, in my opinion towards the emergence of homosexuality, I disagree with D’Emilio’s concept that homosexuality results from a specific time period when capitalism arose, and I would argue that although attractions among same genders appeared uncommon prior to the twentieth century, homosexuality has established long before the development of capitalism. In other words, I believe same-gender attractions develop inherently instead of socially (D’Emilio, 1983, 100).…

Butler challenges the ideas that have been inculcated in our own culture by exposing the truth behind what is considered normal and critiquing the binaries in society. Queer theory is important to address because of the lack of knowledge our society has on queerness. Butler’s ideas on queerness and gender will not only empower others, but it will help social workers in their practice.…
