Learning Queer Identity in the Digital Age

More about the book

The book examines how the digital landscape reinforces harmful stereotypes of queerness through media representations and historical research. It highlights the co-option of queer identities by heteronormative narratives, primarily for commercial gain, which ultimately strengthens traditional masculine and feminine binaries. Through personal interviews and analysis, the author critiques the impact of capitalist consumption on the portrayal of queer lives, revealing the complexities and challenges within these representations.
