Eve Sedgwick; Patricia Lockwood

An Eve Sedgwick memorial site with short recaps and discussions of essays from Tendencies. Jason Edwards follows up on "Queer and Now." Robert Mills follows up on "How to Bring Your Kids Up Gay."

Another story about the APA's 1973 decision, from Alix Spiegel of This American Life.

The gender-and-desire slot machine.

Some things have changed: the out gay undersecretary of the US Air Force; gay Air Force alums. Some things haven't changed yet.

Some things have changed: gender-variant kids. Photographers love trans and gender-nonconforming kids. More gender-variant kids' camps. One of several great organizations for trans and gender-nonconforming kids.

Kids' clothes, unisex fashion, and the world expert on both. Her kids and clothes resource linked to her academic book.

I believe we mentioned GLTBTQ+ superheroes? If you read only one thing about gay superheroes… If you read two, or three, or four… If you read five… Also this title.

Patricia Lockwood: the whole poem "Rape Joke," as originally published at The Awl. More whole poems as published online: "List of Cross-Dressing Soldiers." Scroll down here for "The Feeling of Needing a Pen." From the New Yorker, "Love Poem Like We Used to Write It" (may require login). "The Hypno-Domme…"

Minoan jug dolphins are real. One portrait of Emily Dickinson. 128 portraits of Walt Whitman. Lockwood, rhetorician.

The famous/ notorious Twitter feed. A lot of actual hypnodommes on the Internet. One hypnodomme. Even more hypnodommes.

More reactions to "Rape Joke." The Times magazine profile. A Rumpus interview. The Kat Stoeffel review.
