Rassembler contre l'Homophobie
Unsafe Words
Queer people may not have invented sex, but queers have long been pioneers in imagining new ways to have it. Yet their voices have been largely absent from the #MeToo conversation. What can queer people learn from the #MeToo conversation? And what can queer communities teach the rest of the world about ethical sex? This provocative book brings together academics, activists, artists, and sex workers to tackle challenging questions about sex, power…
Sexual micropolitics
This article explores the circulation of the terms lesbiana and queer (cuir) in Mexico City. More particularly, I discuss how de ambiente and la diversidad sexual, which capture the spirit of queer politics, predominated in the 1990s and early 2000s, to be surpassed by lesbiana in the 2010s, in lesbian communities. While the circulation of lesbiana parallels, permeates, and impregnates cuir genealogies too, I suggest here that its continuity, and…
A Queer Sense of Love and Obligation at the US-Mexico Border

More specifically, Luna's account focuses on how t…

Less attention, though, has been paid to subjects’ relations, which have been central to queer politics in Mexico City since 2000 through public debates on Sociedades de Convivencia, same-sex marriage, and polyamory. This article invest…
Tortilleras Negotiating Intimacy
Transgressive Mexicana sexualities and the promise of progress
Latin American and Latina women's sexualities have often been represented, and theorized, along the terms of sexual morality, restraint and emancipation. In this article, I explore how sexual norms have changed for women in queer spaces in Mexico City over the past two decades. I suggest that sexual practices that were characterized as transgressive in 2000 became normalized in lesbian circles in the following decade, in the 2010s. Ten years of p…
