Two memoirs by queer Muslim women-<i>We Have Always Been Here</i> (2019) by Samra Habib and <i>Hijab Butch Blues</i> (2023) by Lamya H.-not only map their authors' journeys across geographical borders but also trace the realization, exploration, and assertion of their queer identities. By engaging with these two texts, this paper analyzes Samra and Lamya's journeys, as they try to exercise and make sense of their agency (or lack thereof) with respect to their cultural and geographical displacement. This analysis highlights how the position of queer Muslim women in the diaspora both enables and challenges queerness. In addition, this analysis underscores subjective approaches to reconciling religion with queerness and emphasizes the significance of such life narratives for fostering intersectional polylogues on sexuality, religion, and migration. Consequently, this paper contributes to the project of Queer Worldmaking by showing how queer Muslim women create communities, support networks, and exhibit resilience by challenging conventional hierarchies to develop viable life possibilities for themselves in Canada and the United States.</p>","PeriodicalId":46044,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Lesbian Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144676029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The politics of food is central to the film, which shows how it can constitute a powerful axis for the marginalization of the Dalit, queer protagonist. \"Geeli Pucchi\" works as a critique of the Savarna discourse on caste purity and its use of food to reinforce the subaltern position of the Dalit subject. At the same time, the film foregrounds how food can work as a materialization of queer desire that can make caste boundaries fluid. My analysis of the subversive role of food in the film demonstrates how food can become a language that can queer the heterosexual spaces and imagine alternative modes of being and connecting. Caste taboos around food, however, undermine its transgressive potential, and continue to reify Dalit alterity. In the article, I also examine the film's place in the genealogy of Dalit and queer cinema in India and consider how the film's avoidance of the word \"lesbian\" speaks to alternative homosocial frameworks that foster both same-gender desire and culinary intimacies in the South Asian context.</p>","PeriodicalId":46044,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Lesbian Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1-18"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144576553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taking this anxiety seriously, I explore the phenomenon of butch women and trans men who seek employment at the garment factories in the Katunayake Economic Processing Zone to explore a range of gendered desires of masculinity, inspiring category confusions between lesbianism and trans masculinity in the process. I draw on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 2016 and 2022-2024 to ask: what is it about the factory that allows for such complex negotiations of gender and sexuality amidst the paranoid disciplining of bodies into productivity? How does centering labor shift our understandings of butchness, trans masculinity, and the performance of gender? This essay stages a conversation with lesbian studies and trans studies, specifically the scholarship on the <i>butch-FTM border wars</i>, by positing labor as a crucial analytic that reflects and refracts both field formations. I suggest that situating the butch and trans male figures within critical political economy foregrounds how labor conditions inflect, incentivize, and demand specific gender performances, which propels the laboring gender variant figure to negotiate their gender across a butch-trans masc continuum in ways that are plural, recursive, and erratic. I argue that, rather than grounds for war, the relationship between butchness and trans masculinity denotes the imbrications of labor and gender, and capitalist exploitation and gender (un)freedom.</p>","PeriodicalId":46044,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Lesbian Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144267587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The artwork <i>Victim I</i> (1988/1989), which is the subject of an intertextual interpretation, is one of the few unique portraitures of female same-sex couples and eroticism in art from behind the Iron Curtain (1945-1989), created from the feminine perspective. Hence, it took a very prominent role in the major exhibition <i>Gender Check. Femininity and Masculinity in the Art of Eastern Europe</i> (2009), curated by Bojana Pejić. The exploration of female figuration and various dimensions of femininity is a recurrent theme in Izabella Gustowska's art of photographic and filmic portraiture and self-portraiture. In her search for multiple and complex images of femininity, she is one of the precursors of representations of female intimate relationships, togetherness, and homosociality in the Eastern bloc.

Reading the novel alongside Wittig's materialist feminist theory, this article highlights how Wittig's conviction in the political and material agency of cultural signs comes forward most dramatically in her treatment of anatomical representations. In particular, it looks to Wittig's canny manipulation of the unique properties of instrumental and technical images, a class of signs which simultaneously invites and disavows libidinal engagement. The novel provocatively engages the question of whether the visual strategies of hegemonic discourse can ever be successfully deployed against or outside their disciplines.
