In its voracious hunger to fill its decks and spars with the bodies of strong young sailors, the nineteenth century US Navy and the commercial maritime industry welcomed eccentrics, criminals, outcasts, and misfits into a community of the marginalized, one that held very different values and expectations than the towns and villages from which the young men fled, a community that offered a tentative refuge to men who were sexually attracted to other men. Benemann provides an in-depth examination of nineteenth century LGBTQ culture as it developed at sea and in America's port cities.

Growing up in the shadow of Hollywood, the gay sons of immigrants featured in Brown and Gay in LA could not have felt further removed from a world where queerness was accepted and celebrated. Instead, the men profiled here maneuver through family and friendship circles where masculinity dominates, gay sexuality is unspoken, and heterosexuality is strictly enforced. For these men, the path to sexual freedom often involves chasing the dreams while resisting the expectations of their immigrant parents—and finding community in each other.

To solve one of the great mathematical problems of his day, Alan Turing proposed an imaginary computer. Then, attempting to break a Nazi code during World War II, he successfully designed and built one, thus ensuring the Allied victory.

The story of Christine Jorgensen, America's first prominent transsexual, narrated trans embodiment in the postwar era. Her celebrity, however, has obscured other mid-century trans narratives. Their erasure from trans history masks the ways race has figured prominently in the construction and representation of transgender subjects. In Black on Both Sides, C. Riley Snorton identifies multiple intersections between blackness and transness from the mid-19th century to present-day anti-Black and anti-trans legislation and violence.

"Normale" è una parola che sentiamo di continuo, poiché è il parametro con cui la società misura la soglia minima dell'accettabile. Vera Gheno smonta la circolarità capziosa di questo aggettivo, che indicherebbe sia chi si attiene alla norma sia ciò che detta la norma. Oggi, in una società frammentata in gruppi sociali diversissimi, l'autoreferenzialità del concetto è esplosa.

Em Vidas Trans, quatro pessoas trans—Amara Moira, João W. Nery, Márcia Rocha e Tarso Brant—relatam aos ouvintes o momento no qual percebem que havia algo diferente, sobre o sentimento de inadequação perante os padrões exigidos, sobre os preconceitos e dores vividos dentro e fora da família, sobre o momento de transição e, enfim, da liberdade sentida por esta decisão.
