ASIA 3333:Queer Asia

3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: ENGL 1102
This course examines the changing meanings of “normal” and “queer” genders and sexualities in Asia and its diasporas. Working through the leading scholarship in Asian queer theories, students identify major issues about bodies, genders, and sexualities in Asian context, learn sex theories and norms, examine their representations in visual culture, and critically evaluate the knowledge production around queerness and sexuality in the encounters of Asia and the West.
