- W4297815547 abstract "Conceptually, this book has mapped out a queer sociological approach to transgender. A queer sociology of transgender sits on the intersections of deconstructive analyses and empirical sociological studies of identity formations and practices. The theoretical starting point of the book was a critique of medical perspectives on transgender. Over the last century, medical perspectives have occupied a dominant position that has significantly affected how transgender is viewed and experienced within contemporary Western society. Although contemporary medical approaches represent a more complex understanding of transgender practices than was previously offered, I have argued that there remain serious problems in the correlation of transgender and biological and/or psychological pathology. A medical model remains tied to a binary understanding of gender that fails to take account of the many gender identity positions that fall between or beyond the categories of male/female. Moreover, medical approaches to transgender continue, in the main, to work within a heteronormative framework that is unable to account for the complexities of transgender sexualities. A range of alternative theoretical perspectives – ethnomethodology; historical and anthropological studies; radical, pluralist, poststructuralist and postmodern feminism; queer theory; and transgender studies – were drawn upon to explore the varied ways in which social and cultural theory has critiqued medical discourse on transgender." @default.
