The Emergence and Persistence of Queerness: Conversing Through Visual Culture Within a Generation.
Journal of Homosexuality 2018 January 17
In this article, the authors explore the work of becoming queer within the Millennial generation. Collaborative in nature, their investigation turns to three key popular-culture texts of the 1990s-Will & Grace, Rent, and MTV's Spring Break-that were central to their then-emerging sense of self. Staged as an intragenerational conversation, the authors look to create space to unpack the connections, anecdotal by design, between popular texts and changing ideas of queer identity and community. Since neither author grew up within the confines of a gay ghetto-Boystown of Chicago, the Castro of San Francisco, the East Village of New York City-where they may have encountered and been enamored by the avant-garde queer subcultures so often praised in queer scholarship (for important reasons), they turn instead to experiences with popular culture that opened up lessons in becoming gay, in rural and Midwestern locales where queerness operated and emerged differently.
