The Fashion Contest
Every experience brings with it a piece of our life, it is up to us to grasp it, make it ours, and live to the full the teachings that have arisen from it. But it takes courage to accept them, sometimes they are able to annihilate you, to bend you, to the point of turning you into an unknown being that you knew nothing about. A being able to really choose what to experience, a being able to go where no one had dared to go before, a being who understood that life must be lived to the end, accepting every consequence, overcoming every obstacle, falling and rising continually, because what has always belonged to us cannot be taken from us, and it is not possible that it is hidden from us. We have had the gift of free will, it is our helm, it is up to us to direct it where we want it to arrive, only to us. Today, that boy I was, gave way to the man I am. My name is Luke Bouer, and this is my story.

Cruising Utopia
The LGBT agenda for too long has been dominated by pragmatic issues like same-sex marriage and gays in the military. It has been stifled by this myopic focus on the present, which is short-sighted and assimilationist. Cruising Utopia seeks to break the present stagnancy by cruising ahead. Drawing on the work of Ernst Bloch, José Esteban Muñoz recalls the queer past for guidance in presaging its future. He considers the work of seminal artists and writers such as Andy Warhol, LeRoi Jones, Frank O’Hara, Ray Johnson, Fred Herko, Samuel Delany, and Elizabeth Bishop, alongside contemporary performance and visual artists like Dynasty Handbag, My Barbarian, Luke Dowd, Tony Just, and Kevin McCar...

Fathers, Fathering, and Fatherhood
Bringing together a unique collection of narrative accounts based on the lived experience of queer Chicano/Mexicano sons, this book explores fathers, fathering, and fatherhood. In many ways, the contributors reveal the significance of fathering and representations of fatherhood in the context of queer male sexuality and identity across generations, cultures, class, and Mexican immigrant and Mexican American families. They further reveal how father figures—godfathers, grandfathers, and others—may nurture and express love and hope for the queer young men in their extended family. Divided into six sections, the book addresses the complexity of father-queer son relationships; family dynamics; the impact of neurodiverse mental health issues; the erotic, unsafe, and taboo qualities of desire; encounters with absent, estranged or emotionally distant fathers; and a critical analysis of father and queer son relationships in Chicano/Latino literature and film.
