Bodily excess and the practice of wonder in sexuality education
The concept of excess is often used to exclude or render deviant marginalised individuals and groups, reifying hegemonic structures of control and domination.

For this reason, and because research demonstrates that youth in schools form attachments to and receive support from school personnel, our research looks at school personnel's development as allies. By anal…
