Sexing Geography, Teaching Sexualities [1]
نویسنده
چکیده
I draw on my own experiences as a straight feminist geographer to address questions regarding teaching sexualities in geography. First, I look at `sexing’ and `queering’ geography curricula, not only upper level undergraduate and graduate courses that lend themselves to discussions of sexualities, compulsory heterosexuality, and heterosexism, but also lower level undergraduate courses. Second, a sexual dissident’s ® rst self-disclosure to another person typically takes place in college. As such, I discuss strategies that aim to make universities and classrooms less heterosexist and lesbo/homophobic. Finally, I discuss my dilemmas around the disclosure of my sexuality in the context of teaching.
