This chapter synthesizes four key themes of contemporary research in queer and trans geographies: mobilities, temporalities, ecologies, and embodiments. The first section, mobilities, explores the movement of queer and trans people through space, at the scale of the body, the region, the nation, and the globe. The second, temporarlities, considers how queer and trans lives unfold in time, through disjointed genealogies, constrained presents, and queer futures. The third, embodiments, focuses on the meaning and mattering of bodies in queer and trans lives and how identities are embodied, emplaced, and spatialized. The last, ecologies, traces the entanglements of queer and trans lives and cultures with ‘nature’, landscape, and more-than-human life. We close with a call for cultural geographers to take up insights from queer and trans lives – whether or not they focus on LGBTQ2S communities in their work – to sharpen engagements with embodiment, normativity, and space.
