Abstract

which Luna characterizes as a queer departure, “because [missionaries] imagined futures of living with and loving sex workers instead of future husbands” (151). Nonetheless, Luna does not portray the relationship between missionaries and sex workers as a queer utopia. In fact, both parties were concerned they were being used by the other. Although they described their mission as being rooted in unconditional love, missionaries hoped that their actions ultimately would lead to sex workers loving God and leaving prostitution. It is these tensions that Luna so beautifully illustrates and analyzes, leaving readers with new visions for love, friendship, and kinship at the border.

Brownness在这里，Queerness还没有（T）在这里

卢娜将其描述为一种奇怪的背离，“因为[传教士]想象未来与性工作者而不是未来的丈夫生活和相爱”(151)。尽管如此，卢娜并没有把传教士和性工作者之间的关系描绘成一个酷儿乌托邦。事实上，双方都担心自己被对方利用了。尽管传教士们把他们的使命描述为无条件的爱，但他们希望他们的行动最终能让性工作者爱上帝，离开卖淫业。卢娜完美地阐释和分析了这些紧张关系，让读者对边境上的爱情、友谊和亲情有了新的认识。

期刊介绍： Providing a much-needed forum for interdisciplinary discussion, GLQ publishes scholarship, criticism, and commentary in areas as diverse as law, science studies, religion, political science, and literary studies. Its aim is to offer queer perspectives on all issues touching on sex and sexuality. In an effort to achieve the widest possible historical, geographic, and cultural scope, GLQ particularly seeks out new research into historical periods before the twentieth century, into non-Anglophone cultures, and into the experience of those who have been marginalized by race, ethnicity, age, social class, body morphology, or sexual practice.
