Trans Peoples Partnerships Towards an Ethics of Intimacy [Paperback]

As intimate lives become more public, and discussions of gender and sexuality more complex, there is a need to rethink how we engage with our own perceptions and identifications with respect to intimacy. This book explores whether our intimate desires are limited by social norms and expectations, and if so what we might be able to do about it.Introduction A Brief History?of Trans Theorising Intimacy: A Foucauldian Approach Gender: Governance?and Resistance Sexuality: Categorizations?and Complexities The Negotiation?of Intimacy Towards?an Ethics?of Intimacy Appendix i: Interviewee Profiles Notes BibliographyTAM SANGER?is a teaching fellow in Gender Studies and Sociology at Queen's University Belfast, UK.
