Excellent article(s) on the connection between queer theory and Paedophilia.

Read it before it disappears from Medium

Thanks for those links, tea. I knew about Foucault, but it's even more shocking to see it all laid out in context.

One thing that has just suddenly struck me is that Foucault's power-as-discursive-relationship-and-negotiatiin-between-the-two-parties is simply an elaborate intellectual disguise for victim blaming.

Then look at the NSPCC Speak Out, Stay Safe programme, with the definition of sexual abuse is ‘when a child is being made, asked, or rewarded for doing anything with their body that frightens or worries them – or being made to do this to somebody else’

So the definition of sexual abuse according to NSPCC relies on a child's feelings in response to abuse.

Queer theory right there?

Read all 4.
Wow - just wow. I wonder how many academics who use queer theory know about these links to paedophilia. I wonder how many people who try to use/apply queer theory outside of universities know about this.
