L’industrie des services sida : la construction des « victimes », des « volontaires » et des « experts » [1990] by Cindy Patton

Le féminisme pris aux pièges by Gail Pheterson

“…Some sex radical feminists, worn down by the complicity of anti-violence crusaders with governments in search of ideological credit to justify discriminatory control of undocumented migrants and illicit revenues, have found a less antagonistic political base in a Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender alliance. This erosion of feminist coalitions, however conflictive they may be, represents a decentering – or erasure – of radical feminism in favour of protectionist reforms, on one side, and integrationist reforms, on the other.…”

Primera experiencia homoerótica en varones en la ciudad de México by Gabriel Gallego

From paternalistic stereotypes to overtly negative storytelling: A critical narrative analysis of how British Conservative leaders talk about young people (2005-2022) by Alma-Pierre Bonnet

The Missing Colors of the Rainbow: Black Queer Resistance by Elena Kiesling

“…This paper traces the historical context of queer activism and black activism from the social movements of the 1960s and 1970s in the U.S. in order to show the deep rift between blackness and queerness that comes into full force in a supposedly colorblind nation that more than once claimed that “gay is the new black.” This is not only a dangerous analogy that lacks profound grounding, it also leads to a discourse that draws a clear boundary between two separate communities and movements—one black, one queer. …”

Same-sex marriage: a defense based on foundations of natural law by Pablo Antonio Lago

“…Departing from a critical analysis of Finnis’ natural law theory and his marriage conception, I argue that a better matrimony conception needs to be grounded on a wide vision of human sexuality, which encompasses lesbian and gay couples. Instead of procreation (which is one of the marriage points in Finnis’ conception), human experience shows that sex is not limited to breeding - it is a way people can achieve pleasure and high levels of intimacy, regardless their sexual orientation. …”
