What is involved for queer people in making a family of their own, or for trans people to access the relevant surgery? This volume argues that contemporary cultures foster bioprecarity by categorizing groups of people in certain ways and/or by denying them access to the treatment they seek or need. Drawing on original empirical data with trans and queer people, but also other minoritised and racialized groups, this volume explores how bodily interventions, their regulation, and the intimate labour the interventions involve, create vulnerabilities.BiotechnologyHuman body and technologyAssisted Reproductive Technologies.Bioprecarity.Bodily intervention.Body.Categorical framing.Gender.Intimate labour.Kinship.Queer.Race.Trans.Biotechnology.Human body and technology.303.483Griffin GabrieleLeibetseder DorisMdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910793944703321Bodily interventions and intimate labour3855712UNINA
