Drawing on data from multiple online surveys including a study of 2,407 LGBTQ+ people and a study of 272 people with intersex variations, it names and offers a new ecological framework for understanding participants? influences on and barriers to euphorias, asserting the subversive possibilities of being euphorically queer, as opposed to euphoric and queer. The author argues that it is the particularities of negative internal, socio-cultural and institutional contexts for a marginal group or groups that contributes towards the possibilities that shape their potential euphoric feelings and experiences. Ultimately, she calls for a more expansive focus in gender and sexuality studies to show the complex effects of dysphoria and repression on the possibilities of pleasure and joy. This book will be of interest to scholars across Gender, Sexuality and Queer Studies. 606 $aSex 606 $aQueer theory 606 $aHuman body?Social aspects 606 $aSexuality Studies 606 $aQueer Studies 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aSociology of the Body 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aQueer theory. 615 0$aHuman body?Social aspects. 615 14$aSexuality Studies. 615 24$aQueer Studies. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aSociology of the Body. 676 $a152.4 676 $a152.4 700 $aJones$b Tiffany$0990579 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910669806203321 996 $aEuphorias in Gender, Sex and Sexuality Variations$93057047 997 $aUNINA
