Biojust visiting this planet!
no really. i'm down-to-earth but prone to flights of fancy and the desire for transformation - personal and social.
i invest my critical and emotional energies (they are intertwined - you should see my head and heart lines!) in the defence of anyone 'up against it' - queers, transppl, homeless, sex workers, those not even described in current parameters...
theoretically, (coz i am a bit of a theory slut) i'm turned on by the writings of gayle rubin, viviane namaste, donna haraway, gloria anzaldua, pedro lemebel and others (foucault, derrida, patrick califia, jillian weiss, disability activists - all in no particular order)
my work is my work - i'm a phd student - and i am my work. there is no separation (wait until i've finished and joined the dole queue & i'll let you know if that changes lol)
My work is at the cross-section of sexuality studies, gender studies, trans studies, latin american sociological research, literary and film theory.
when i'm not working (does my brain ever rest? answer: all the time) i'm fond of feeding my senses: with food, with cinema, the internet, with social and sexual contact (nice if you can get it!) and general childishness... I'm vegan and proud of it!
You'll find out more about me and the work as we go along.
