Queering feminist geography

Queering Feminist Geography Collective, et al. “Queering feminist geography I: queer/trans inclusion, exclusion, and belonging.” Gender, Place, & Culture (forthcoming): 1–12.

In this first piece of our four-part Queering Feminist Geography Viewpoint series, we explore themes of queer/trans inclusion, exclusion, and belonging in feminist geography and geography more broadly. We begin by introducing the Queering Feminist Geography Collective, a group of us that has come together to activate intellectual and political potentials between queer, trans, and feminist thought and foster inclusion of queer/trans people, perspectives, and approaches within feminist geography. We then explore the question of queer/trans inclusion in feminist geography by sharing positive and negative experiences we have had within the subfield’s spaces. We close with our shared aspirations for a queer/trans inclusive feminist geography.

In the second of our four-part Queering Feminist Geography Viewpoint series, we consider the problem that trans-exclusionary feminism poses for feminist geography. In this paper, we examine the field’s fraught history of trans inclusion and explore how it must change to address the problem of trans exclusion.
