"Glada läderbögar och lesbiska på motorcykel" : Hejarop eller reproducerande av redan existerande stereotyper av hbtqi-personer i media?Malmros, Amanda January 2020 (has links)
Från fjollor och flator till läderbögar och lesbiska på motorcykel – så beskrivs bland annat deltagarna i Prideparaden i svensk media. Den tidigare radikala manifestationen har sina rötter i New York som 1979 bröts ut i ett uppror gentemot det polisvåld som existerade mot hbtqi-personer i dåtidens USA. Utifrån Judith Butlers queerteori och Foucaults teori om makt studerar uppsatsen hur gestaltningen av hbtqi-personer ser ut i svensk media och huruvida media bidrar till ett reproducerande av redan existerande stereotyper. Det analyserade materialet är artiklar från svenska dags- och kvällstidningar mellan 1998–2019 som har utgångspunkt i rapporteringen kring Pride. Idag beskrivs paraden som en glittrande kärleksfest med dansande och sjungande deltagare med fokus på mångfald och tolerans. Mediebilden av hbtqi-personen kan förstås som en skapelse utifrån de heteronormativa strukturerna i samhället och är minst sagt komplex. Trots den positivt präglade rapporteringen av Pride visar uppsatsen på det exkluderande klimat som existerar. Det talas väldigt mycket om bögar och lesbiska och nästan inget om bisexuella och transpersoner. När en rörelse som Pride får medial uppmärksamhet riskerar den också att urvattnas och förlora sin politiska kärna. Uppsatsen förklarar hur medias gestaltning av hbtqi-personer inte bör ses som representativ av olika sexualiteter och könsidentiteter, men föreslår hur den (o)disciplinerade kroppen i Prideparaden kan förstås som ett motstånd gentemot heteronormativa maktstrukturer i samhället. Uppsatsen bidrar med ett synliggörande av en stereotypisk och snäv gestaltning av icke-normativa kroppar i svensk media och redogör för vilka konsekvenser det får när media lyfter fram marginaliserade grupper genom förenklade beskrivningar.

THE INTERSECTION OF QUEERLY LEADING: LIVED EXPERIENCES OF K-12 QUEER SCHOOL LEADERSUnknown Date (has links)
This phenomenological research study examined the perceived experiences of K-12 queer school leaders in school workplaces. This study discussed events, state laws, workplace polices, and related repeated studies that demonstrate that K-12 queer school leaders experience challenges in school spaces because of their sexual and/or gender identities. The sample population for this study consisted of 10 participants. The data collection consisted of a recruitment survey, individual interviews, and document review of state laws and policies. The analysis of data included survey data, transcribed interviews, and document reviews. The data were coded and triangulated for reliability and the analysis was guided by queer theory, script theory, and Foucault’s work on perspectives on power-knowledge. There were three key findings that emerged: queer school leaders’ suitability, queer negotiations in school spaces, and institutionalized homophobia and gender-based prejudices in the school spaces. The results contemporaneously indicate that policy, procedures, practices, and hegemonic power constitute the producers and pushers of an institutionalize cis/hetero-patriarchy narrative. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2020. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Att röra sig framåt : En studie om lesbiska orienteringar i StockholmNorin, Josef January 2020 (has links)
From a queer phenomenological perspective, this study has examined how lesbian couples relate to a sexualized geography and what strategies they utilize to move in different spaces of the public domain in Stockholm, Sweden. The empirical material that forms the basis of this study consists of three semi-structured interviews conducted with three lesbian couples of different ages and backgrounds. The analysis of the empirical material that was carried out, looked closely at how conflicts and social positioning was articulated in the informant’s testimonies. Among other things, the study concluded that access to lesbian spaces was conditional on the couple’s prerequisites. The distinctive strategies that the couples utilized to move around in the public domain was related to spatial organization, language use and stereotyping.

Queer geografie Česka: Heteronormativita prostoru / Queer geography of Czechia: Heteronormativity of spacePitoňák, Michal January 2011 (has links)
Drawing on rigorous foreign, both Western and non-Western, literature, this thesis introduces sexuality and its connected spatial conceptualizations to Czech geography. In the beginning of the theoretical part, I discuss the framework under which geography studies sexuality. Then, I discuss the crucial terminology while pointing out at some changes in it. After understanding some of the major terminological issues, I delve into a description of the multiple and diverse development of sexuality related geographies. Focusing on queer geography, I delineate the queer standpoint and concentrate on understanding the spatial construction of sexuality in space while unveiling the heteronormativity of space. Using the queer approach, I implicitly deconstruct the binary of public and private space by pointing out at its spuriousness regarding the sexuality. I present a queer bar as a typical queer space while revealing the sexual closetedness of LGBTIQ people. Then I introduce the school environment as, for the time being, a typical heteronormative space and institution. In the end of the theoretical part, I discuss the queer practices of destabilizing heteronormativity both at school and in public space. In the empirical part of the thesis, I discuss the methodology of my internet based chain-referral...

"An endeavour at something spiritual": Queer Spirituality in Virginia Woolf's The WavesMurdock, Hannah 03 June 2021 (has links)
On November 7, 1928, Virginia Woolf wrote in her diary that her 1931 novel, The Waves, would be an "abstract mystical eyeless book" (Diaries 3; 203). In her personal writings, she also referred to the novel as "an endeavour at something mystic, spiritual; the thing that exists when we aren't there" (114). From the initial inspiration for the novel to her own notes, Woolf envisioned The Waves to be "spiritual" above all else. This project examines Woolf's engagement with spirituality throughout The Waves, particularly in the moments in the novel in which the queer characters--Rhoda and Neville--express sexual desire. In doing so, I suggest that Woolf engages in a queer spirituality--a spirituality that conveys both a queer sexual desire and identity. For Rhoda and Neville, and in some ways Woolf herself, that desire remains unachieved, suggesting that Woolf viewed spirituality as a means of expressing a queer identity that was oftentimes frustrated and unfulfilled. In that frustration, however, Woolf also appears hopeful for a future, a potentiality, in which queer individuals could express their queerness openly.

Preserving Play: Archival Practice in Queer Game StudiesLee W Hibbard (11177289) 26 July 2021 (has links)
This
dissertation investigates archival work concerning the history and preservation
of queer games and play experiences. Current scholarship in archival practice,
queer history, and game studies focus on archival methods, the history of games
in general, or the queerness of games in the present, without a specific focus
on the intersection of archives and preservation of games and play experiences.
This study therefore asks the following questions: What efforts are being made
in game studies to preserve the history of games and those who play them? What
do those methods look like in comparison to an archive of queer games
constructed by and concerning the experiences of queer people? What can game
studies do to more accurately preserve and lift up the voices of marginalized
groups in gaming culture? To answer these questions I developed a six move
methodology that interweaves interdisciplinary areas, including archival
practice, queer theory, games history, and the lived experience of the author
as a queer and transgender individual: 1) Weaving methodological strands
together; 2) Defining a transparent method for insider research; 3)
Decolonizing and redefining axes of marginalization; 4) Integrating queerness,
game studies, and interdisciplinarity; 5) Turning to the archives; and 6)
Enacting and maintaining activism, advocacy, and community. The study conducts
two case studies examining efforts in archiving and preservation to lift up the
voices of marginalized people, taking place at the Strong Museum of Play in
Rochester, New York, and the all-digital LGBTQ+ Video Game Archive,
respectively. The cases find that both archives engage in efforts to preserve
queer gaming history to not only preserve history but look to the future and
how to best serve marginalized populations. This occurs through collaboration
between communities and sharing resources between archives and examining the
interaction between the Strong and the LGBTQ+ Video Game Archive provides
insight into practical methods for preserving and lifting up marginalized
voices in gaming history, including larger archives providing resources to
assist smaller archives with access and long-term storage. Collaborative
efforts to preserve specific queer video games such as <i>Caper in the Castro</i>
provide specific examples of the two archives working together towards ensuring
queer game history is preserved and accessible to scholars and gamers in the
future. Highlighting the collaborative work and connections between the case
studies demonstrates that the methods in use to preserve queer history rely on
queer archival practices like community interaction and collaboration to best
serve marginalized communities in the preservation of their histories and
experiences

A Pilot Study on Subtitling Tasks and Projects for Intercultural Awareness and Queer PedagogyVillanueva-Jordan, Ivan, Gallardo-Echenique, Eliana 19 October 2020 (has links)
El texto completo de este trabajo no está disponible en el Repositorio Académico UPC por restricciones de la casa editorial donde ha sido publicado. / This paper presents the results of a pilot study on the use of active interlingual subtitling for intercultural awareness and queer pedagogy. The subtitling tasks and project were carried out with Ooona, an online subtitling software, and as part of an optional course on gender and sexuality at an undergraduate university program in Translation. The data collected are based on the Spanish subtitles produced by the students from audiovisual content originally in English, as well as on questionnaires and reports that they completed after subtitling. The results reveal how cloud-based subtitling software is a useful tool for students to position themselves regarding online video content online, as well as how the audiovisual representation of queer characters allows students to reflect on aspects of the gender/sex system when they must transfer linguistic content that is rooted in different socio-cultural systems.

Circle City Strife: Gay and Lesbian Activism during the Hudnut EraOpsahl, Samuel Evan 03 1900 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / This paper will be discussing gay and lesbian activism in Indianapolis during the 1980s and how the mayoral administration at the time interacted with it. We know the stories of Stonewall and San Francisco. But what about gay and lesbian activism in the Midwest? What stories does Indianapolis have to tell? This thesis will cover how a portion of the movement played out in Indianapolis. It will shine a light on the 1980s and look specifically at police discrimination on Monument Circle, gatherings like the Gay Knights rallies and the 1990 Celebration on the Circle, and political efforts to combat the HIV epidemic. It will also explore the local actions by city government to undertake the urban renewal movement and how those efforts interacted with queer activism. Collections from the Indiana Historical Society, University of Indianapolis, and the Indiana State Library illuminate both sides of the social conflict to understand what made this moment in Indianapolis a touchstone moment for the city. This thesis argues that gay and lesbian protests and social gatherings on Monument Circle rendered the queer community impossible to ignore in the Hudnut administration’s dreams to reform Indianapolis into an entrepreneurial city.
