# Queer theory

Queer theory is a field of post-structuralism that emerged in the early 1990s out of queer studies (often, formerly, gay and lesbian studies) and women's studies. The term can have various meanings depending upon its usage, but has broadly been associated with the study and theorisation of gender and sexual practices that exist outside of heterosexuality, and which challenge the notion that heterosexual desire is ‘normal’.

## Quotes

* Queer theory proposes to think identities in terms that place as a problem the production of normalcy and in terms that confound the intelligibility of the apparatuses that produce identity as repetition.
** Deborah Britzman. (2012). Queer Pedagogy and Its Strange Techniques. Counterpoints. Vol. 367, Sexualities in Education.
* It is interesting to compare Queer Theory with Vedanta and Buddhism both of which consider linguistic categories as relative to our world of cognition. Categories are seen as constructed by the ego’s cognitive system. The relative realm we live in is the laukika /empirical realm. The paramarthika or absolute reality transcends all categories. In this sense, what Queer Theory is claiming has long ago been thoroughly explained in Indian thought.
** Malhotra, R. & Viswanathan V. (2022). Snakes in the Ganga : Breaking India 2.0.
* We are in sympathy with the ideas of the Querists presented above. However, things don’t stop here. An important result of Queer Theory we note is that one cannot argue against them because they reject outright, any opponents using scientific and rational categories. Therefore, their discourse is more like the dogma of a Church, and it is blasphemy to challenge their thesis using evidence-based logic. We disagree and would like free speech. No discussion should be declared final and closed to further development.
** Malhotra, R. & Viswanathan V. (2022). Snakes in the Ganga : Breaking India 2.0.
* Interestingly, in support of Queer Theory, in the Vedic system, Ishwar (God) is represented often as half male and half female, and a blurring of boundaries between masculinity and femininity even in the understanding of divinity. Therefore, what the Querists are saying has already been respected in the Indian tradition.

### Watersprings (1902)

* "I must consider," said Monica with a smile, "but one can't do these things offhand--that is worse than doing nothing. I'll tell you what to do NOW. Why not go and stay with Aunt Anne? She would like to see you, I know, and I have always thought it rather lazy of you not to go there--she is rather a remarkable woman, and it's a pretty country. Have you ever been there?"

### The Isles of Sunset (1904)

* Let those whose Hearts and Hands are strong Tell eager Tales of mighty Deeds; Enough if my sequestered song To hush'd and twilight Gardens leads! Clear Waters, drawn from secret Wells Perchance may fevered Lips assuage; The Tales an elder Pilgrim tells To such as go on Pilgrimage. Such the soft Path my Words would trace, Thus with the moving Waters move; So leave, across the Ocean's Face, A glimmering Stair to Hope and Love.
** Prologue.

### Land of Hope and Glory

Land of Hope and Glory, Mother of the Free, How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee? Wider still, and wider, shall thy bounds be set; God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet!
