Conclusion. . 330 $aThis book takes the globally recognised phenomenon of drag king performances as an opportunity for critical inquiry into the rise and fall of an urban scene for lesbian and queer women in Sydney, Australia (circa 1999-2012). Exploring how a series of weekly events provided the site for intimate encounters, Drysdale reveals the investments made by participants that worked to sustain the sense of a small world and anchor the expansive imaginary of lesbian cultural life. But what happens when scenes fade, as they invariably do? Intimate Investments in Drag King Cultures is unique in capturing the perspective of a scene at the moment of its decline, revealing the process by which a contemporary movement becomes layered with historical significance. Bringing together the theoretical tradition of scene studies with recent work on the affective potentialities of the everyday and the mobile urban spaces they inhabit, this book has appeal to scholars working across gender, sexuality and culture. 606 $aGender identity 606 $aQueer theory 606 $aDrag kings 606 $aCulture?Study and teaching 606 $aSociology 606 $aGender and Sexuality$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35010 606 $aQueer Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35020 606 $aCultural and Media Studies, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/400000 606 $aSociology, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000 615 0$aGender identity. 615 0$aQueer theory. 615 0$aDrag kings. 615 0$aCulture?Study and teaching. 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aGender and Sexuality. 615 24$aQueer Theory. 615 24$aCultural and Media Studies, general. 615 24$aSociology, general. 676 $a306.76630973 676 $a306.768099441 700 $aDrysdale$b Kerryn$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01060891 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337728103321 996 $aIntimate Investments in Drag King Cultures$92516069 997 $aUNINA
