Journal Article
Queering social reproduction
2021
Overview
In this paper I ask what is at stake when we move past static ontologies of the ‘gayborhood’ as a form of commercial and residential concentration in decline to theorise gay urban activism as a mode of queer social reproduction, through which queer caring labour ‘redeems’ the dislocations of the neoliberal city structured by oedipalised and capitalist social relations. Through well-documented formal and informal collective action, queers in the urban West have organised in response to health crises, exclusion and systemic threats of violence. Returning to socialist feminist imaginaries of care beyond the ‘social’, and to Guy Hocquenghem’s often-overlooked theory of the sociality of the anus, this paper draws on excerpts from the film Milk, the poetry of Thom Gunn and a discussion of gay men’s volunteering to examine San Francisco as a queer urban space constituted through a network of encounters, crossings, intimacies and labours enacted through the mundane caring practices of everyday life. I ask in what ways we can think of gay urban space as continuously made and remade through non-monogamous sex practices that perform the messy marrying of public and private, and erotic and platonic.
在本文中，我要问的是，当我们超越作为一种商业和住宅集中形式（处于衰落过程中）的“同志村”的静态本体论，将同性恋城市行动主义理论化为一种酷儿社会再生产模式时，会有什么利害关系。通过这种模式，同性恋关怀劳动“弥补”了由俄狄浦斯化的资本主义社会关系所构建的新自由主义城市的混乱。通过有据可查的正式和非正式集体行动，西部城市的酷儿组织起来应对健康危机、排斥和系统性暴力威胁。回到社会主义女权主义者对“社会”之外的关怀的想象，以及盖伊·霍克昂海姆 (Guy Hocquenghem) 经常被忽视的肛门的社会性理论，本文摘录了电影《自由大道 (Milk)》、托姆·冈恩 (Thom Gunn) 的诗、和一个关于同性恋男子志愿调查旧金山酷儿城市空间的讨论，该空间由一个邂逅、交叉、亲密关系、劳动网络构成，通过日常生活的中世俗关怀实现。我的问题时，我们可以怎样将同性恋城市空间视为通过非一夫一妻制的性行为不断创造和重塑的，这种性行为将公共和私人生活、色情和柏拉图式的理想主义混乱地结合在一起。
