Introduction
Family is a topic that has often been overlooked in political science. This oversight is based at least in part on an assumption that the public and private can clearly be distinguished, and that family belongs to the private sphere, outside of public concerns about state power.

Drawing on the queer performance in the reality television show Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, I characterize Lawrence…
