The court also held that a design-patent holder is entitled to an infringer’s entire profits from sales of any product found to contain a patented design, with- out any regard to the design’s contribution to that product’s value or sales.

Palavras-chave: Queer as Folk; Homoafetividade; Homossexualidade; Séries televisuais Introdução O presente artigo é um recorte da pesquisa para o Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso “Homoafetividade na TV: análise das séries Queer As Folk, The L Word e Looking”4. O estudo foi realizado com as primeiras temporadas das séries citadas a fim de responder a questão: como são representados os casais homoafetivos em séries de TV americanas?

  • Introduction: Placing the Self Within the Frame 1 New Storytelling
    Notes Introduction: Placing the Self within the Frame 1. This is performed by the Mamas and the Papas (see Chapter 6). 2. For various opinions on the potential of textual analysis see Childs (2006), Kovala (2008) and McKee (2003). 3. Although Gwen Haworth’s documentary is relevant to lesbian discourse, as Haworth, a male to female transsexual, expresses lesbian desire, I have not included this work in my book, as the focus is largely transsexual. Despite this, Haworth’s documentary is highly contiguous to the theoretical ideas expressed within this book, concerning self-reflexive narrative expression and sexual diversity. 4. Also there are still laws which oppress non-heterosexuals within the Western world. 5. It is important to note that this often includes production funding from Anglocentric sources, which bears its own implications of textual influence. 1 New Storytelling: Transitions from the Past 1. Howard Auster had changed his name to Howard Austen early in his career, on advice from Gore Vidal to avoid advertising his Jewish identity at a time when it was hard to obtain work as a Jew (Vidal, 1995). In Gore Vidal’s mem- oir, Howard’s name is restored to the original spelling; hence I have adopted it here. 2. I use the term ‘literature’ in the general sense as ‘serious writing’, esteemed by authority such as academia. 3. I am only discussing the media of radio in this chapter, as a precursor to later developments in television, film and new media through the World Wide Web. 4. It is important to note that in some non-Western countries conversely homo- sexuality under certain circumstances may be considered to offer positive myths.

  • Queering the Family: Kinship, Blood Relations and Marriage in Showtime’S Queer As Folk Marianne Kongerslev Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
    Queering the Family: Kinship, Blood Relations and Marriage in Showtime’s Queer as Folk Marianne Kongerslev Copenhagen Business School, Denmark Abstract This essay explores the ways in which the American television series Queer as Folk (2000–2005) constructs queer families. The show responds to the social and cultural challenges faced by LGBT families and expresses differing attitudes to assimilationism and compulsory heterosexuality. By juxtaposing two traditional, though homosexual, family units with an anti-assimilationist worldview, Queer as Folk questions what family signifies. The essay analyzes the series’ treatment of gay male versus lesbian kinship and sexuality, and its assumptions about gender, through the family as a central trope. Keywords Queer as Folk (US); television series; queer studies; family; gay marriage; LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) Any discussion in an American context of the notion of “family” will necessarily be complicated by the troublesome relationship between the reality of a heterogeneous population on the one hand, and the desire for homogeneity on the other. In addition, it is impossible to define with any accuracy what a family is or is supposed to be,1 but as Kath Weston points out, the “privileged construct” appears to be the heteronormative family paradigm.2 Bernstein and Reimann state that “in 1998, only 6.7 percent of all households [in the US] fit the ‘traditional’ nuclear-family model.”3 With this statistic, it can seem rather curious that the issue of gay marriage and queer families is such a controversial one. Part of the explanation may lie in the notion of national myths or idealized perceptions of imagined communities.

  • Queer Television Thesis FINAL DRAFT Amended Date and Footnotes
    Queer British Television: Policy and Practice, 1997-2007 Natalie Edwards PhD thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham School of American and Canadian Studies, January 2010 Abstract Representations of gay, lesbian, queer and other non-heterosexualities on British terrestrial television have increased exponentially since the mid 1990s. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer characters now routinely populate mainstream series, while programmes like Queer as Folk (1999-2000), Tipping the Velvet (2002), Torchwood (2006-) and Bad Girls (1999-2006) have foregrounded specifically gay and lesbian themes. This increase correlates to a number of gay-friendly changes in UK social policy pertaining to sexual behaviour and identity, changes precipitated by the election of Tony Blair’s Labour government in 1997. Focusing primarily on the decade following Blair’s installation as Prime Minister, this project examines a variety of gay, lesbian and queer-themed British television programmes in the context of their political, cultural and industrial determinants, with the goal of bridging the gap between the cultural product and the institutional factors which precipitated its creation. Ultimately, it aims to establish how and why this increase in LGBT and queer programming occurred when it did by relating it to the broader, government-sanctioned integration of gays, lesbians and queers into the imagined cultural mainstream of the UK. Unlike previous studies of lesbian, gay and queer film and television, which have tended to draw conclusions about cultural trends purely through textual analysis, this project uses government and broadcasting industry policy documents as well as detailed examination of specific television programmes to substantiate links between the cultural product and the wider world.

  • Chapter One Introduction
    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Language is one of the important aspects in communication. Without it we would probably have difficulties delivering our message. Language makes everything easier. Moreover, we live in the world with many countries, many cultures and, of course, many languages on it. Generally speaking, someone’s speech can be influenced by many factors, such as social factors. Social factors include age, gender, ethnic group, and social class. Gender, rather than sex, will be the key point of this thesis. ‘‘Sex’ refers to a biological distinction, whereas ‘gender’ is the term used to describe socially constructed categories based on sex’. (Coates 1993:3) In this thesis I deal with the different varieties of language which are used by men in their speech. When women speak, there is a difference in diction. Another difference is that women usually use lexical hedges; while men do not. In sociolinguistics we learn about different types of language used by men and by women; furthermore, there is a specific term for the type of language spoken by women, namely women’s language. There is no such term as men’s language. Still, I believe it would be out of the ordinary and challenging if we could find the anomalies of language use. To show the anomalies of language use, I have chosen television series Queer as Folk as the source of data. Queer As Folk is a Showtime Networks television 1 series. It is about a homosexual community in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In addition, I choose the American version of Queer As Folk since it has become a great, number one television series in America.
