edited by Carol Queen and Lawrence Schimel
abstract

Greg Knotts: Greg Knotts is a PhD candidate in Education, at the University of Southern California.

Pomosexuals is a postmodern investigation of what it means to be queer in a world following Modernism. The essays in Pomosexuals help to deconstruct the notion of the reality of the queer erotic world beyond the parameters of gender, separatism, and essentialist notions of sexual orientation. This investigation describes a space in which non-binary forms of sexual and gender identity negotiate their existence. It is a critical look at breaking down categories, dispelling assumptions, and reconstructing notions of identity. Pomosexuals is a wonderful introductory look at applying a critical postmodern lens to the world of sexuality.
