Nikki Sullivan provides a succinct introduction to the term 'queer': 'to make strange, to frustrate, to counteract, to delegitimise, to camp up- heteronormative knowledges and institutions, and the subjectivities and socialities that are (in)formed by them and that (in)form them' (A Critical Introduction to Queer Theory, 2003, pg. vi).

Our queer theory reading group meets monthly in Sydney, Australia. The group is intended to have a critical and deconstructive focus. Part of the point of getting together to discuss queer theory related texts is to work through ideas and discuss the role of queer theory in relation to race and class privilege, patriarchy, nationalism, gender identity, fatness, critical disability studies, prison abolition, speciesism, etc.
