Queer Theory

[close] It comes as no surprise that being LGBT or becoming involved in any sexually alternative lifestyles, promotes all sort of intolerance. We want to learn about the sources and bases of this phenomenon that permeates the lives of all of us. We want to learn about the historical and anthropolical foundations of innate sexual orientations, choices about how we live our sex lives, and how humanity has developed toward the place where "we" now find ourselves in the world. We even want to figure out ways to promote tolerance if we can. So our thought is that if we introduce ourselves to one another (to the extent we choose -- reticence concerning full self-descriptions most often stems from fear of intolerance) read, learn and discuss issues related to the many forms of intolerance, we might accomplish something positive. That is our hope. That is our mission. Please join is in our endeavor.
