Encountering Metronormativity: Geographies of Queer Visibility in Central New York

Authors

Sean H. Wang, Syracuse University

Abstract

This article uses metronormativity to discuss queer visibility and political organizing in central New York. It critically reviews the geography of sexuality literature and – through a vignette – illustrates how metronormative politics impacts service providers. It ends by suggesting that the Marxist concept of ordinary may offer an alternative to metronormativity.
