| WGST 420 - Queer Theory and Trans Studies: Embodiment and Representation of Gender and Sexuality |
|---|
| This course provides critical overview and engagement with the field of Trans Studies and Queer Theory. Central to the course is the examination and disruption that dominant notions of sex, gender, and sexuality are biological and natural as well as the assumed correlation between sex, gender, and sexuality. As part of this process, we examine the colonial, historical, and social construction of gender and sexuality, including historical interpretation of sexual acts, development of identity rights movements, impact of space and borders on gender and sexuality, and contemporary debates and activism. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the course brings together queer, trans, and feminist theory, anti-racist and postcolonial theory, and Indigenous and cultural studies.
