as view , both operate as a kind of lightning-rod designed to hold thesexual undercurrents of enjoyment and want that do, actually, exist in non sexual
frameworks of nude behaviour -- the joy of gazing and the desire to know,
the enjoyment of showing and the desire to be seen. For modern postmodern
western culture, sex and sexuality have become signicant motifs in advertisements,
art, entertainment and other frames such that sexuality looks an outside force,
roller-coastering or bulldozing its way through previously 'protected' spaces, and
The 'safe' sites of nakedness -- kids bathing,
Locker room showers -- are additionally 'crashed through' and sexualized.
When it is useful to fight the prohibition on nakedness that results from the
(renewed) collapse of nakedness into sexuality -- and probably it's -- then it's not
done by taking the place of nudists, naturalists and nude activists in attempt-
ing to recover a space or frame for nonsexual nakedness, for the instability of
the myth of the closed framework or circumstance is productive, in the sense that it opens
up all kinds of chances for contingent, continuous re thinking of subjectivity,
bodies, aspects, resources, statuses and individualities. Nor is it useful to fete,
or even necessarily advocate the collapse of the contextual frames per se. Instead,

This is where queer theory makes a useful contribution to such re-thinking. If

As Freudian, Marxist-Freudian and
Marxist-feminist scholars have frequently attested, sexuality in modernity is fooled
to the genitals in order to free the rest of the body for labour (Jeffreys, 1990:
104--5). In poststructuralist queer theoretical terms, the sexual issue is a
performative delusion of a (genitally sexed) body, gendered culturally and endeavor-
ing a sexual desire towards another body labelled reverse by virtue of its
dichotomously discerned genitals -- a regime upheld by the 'heterosexual
matrix', and where homosexuality becomes the 'evidence' of heterosexuality by
Merit of its binarial difference.
Kosofsky Sedgwick has claimed that sexual appeal across gendered (and
Thus genital) lines is not only unproductive but unimaginative. She implies
alternative measurements of sexuality that
... recognize object-option rather otherwise (e.g., human/animal, adult/child, singular/plural,
autoerotic/alloerotic) or are not even about object alternative (e.g., orgasmic/nonorgasmic,
noncommercial/commercial, using bodies only/using manufactured objects, in private/in
public, impulsive/scripted). (Sedgwick, 1990: 35)
Queer theory allows us to add to this list along trajectories that generally aren't
encompassed in conversation on sexuality -- time, space, place, the disunied body or,

and performative body, but not in the gendered, genital terms which continue to
fascinate contemporary culture, and which contemporary culture continues to be
incited by, and to fear.
