Decolonising sexual pleasure
This paper seeks to challenge the dominance of Global North frameworks in international work on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), arguing that decolonising this work requires centring Global South knowledge, lived experience, and culturally grounded understandings of sexuality, including sexual pleasure. Decolonisation is here understood as dismantling inequitable power relations, shifting epistemic authority away from Global Nort…
“If I’m going to go to a club, I’ve got to be with the queers”
Honcho (George d’Adhemar, Aaron Clark, Michael Moraine, and Clark Price), a staple of the queer dance music underground, highlights the centrality of collaboration and connection to queer nightlife. For Honcho, queer nightlife is not simply flashing lights and the faint smell of poppers, but an opportunity to engage queer history. The most important aspect of queer nightlife, what keeps people coming back for more, might not be the spectacle and …

Queer nightlife is all the rage. Over the past several years there has been a surge of creative practice, performance, music, media, contemporary art, and scholarship focused on the past, present, and future of queer dancefloors. This TDR Consortium issue brings together an intergenerational group of queer artists and scholars who are thinking about the rhythms, textures, and analog intimacies of queer nightlife

Unwanted experiences and support among men and trans individuals in the sex industry in Bangkok, Thailand
Male and transgender sex workers in Thailand experience high rates of violence, social stigma, economic marginalization, as well as limited access to legal protections and support services. However, this population remains significantly understudied in trafficking and sex work literature and often lacks adequate support services. As such, through quantitative surveys with 100 sex workers assigned male at birth (73% transgender/third gender, 26% c…
Effective Recruitment and Retention in a Longitudinal Panel Natural Experiment
Objectives: Due to the limited evidence on recruitment and retention for longitudinal panel and natural experiments, we utilize findings from a natural experiment to identify barriers encountered, effectiveness of strategies employed, and recommendations. Methods: We evaluated recruitment strategies (doorto‐door contact, postcards, park events, mailed materials, provision of health results to participants, study branding, and participant compensa…

Work! From Home
On 7 November, 2020, legendary New York queer nightlife DJ duo The Carry Nation held a virtual dance party on Twitch, the interactive live-streaming service that emerged during the pandemic as an important venue for live performance. The party was called ‘WORK from Home’, and the flyer is telling: a yellow piece of paper with a stock image of a white woman wearing a headset, smiling into a webcam — presumably having a meeting.As Twitch became a m…
Black Vibrations

I’m that bitch”
Within the world of queer performance, being “that bitch” is about having an exacting, unquestionable creative juice and asserting yourself through performance and style. It’s not about asking for permission to exist but about existing anyway, right now, and on terms you decide for yourself. For queer people of color, being “that bitch” is about queer livelihood and ethical self-making, particularly when you are forced to exist in a world with no…

This article combines my experience as a party-host and nightlife-creator with a close reading of Studio 54 as a theatrical production. I call for a consideration of how the staging of nightlife functions as an art form, relying on the dual practices of creation and curation. I provide a close reading of the tightly-staged Studio 54 experience, focusing on the club's infamously tight door policy and production of fabulousness to reveal what schol…
