    Geographies of Enforced Heteronormativity in Urban Public Parks: A Case Study of Project Marie by Bronwyn Clement A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Geography & Planning University of Toronto © Copyright by Bronwyn Clement 2018 Geographies of Enforced Heteronormativity in Urban Public Parks: A Case Study of Project Marie Bronwyn Clement Master of Arts Department of Geography & Planning University of Toronto 2018 Abstract The policing of sex in public parks raises questions regarding how the access and use of public space is regulated and how normative framings of urban park space are reproduced and enforced. This thesis uses the recent police operation, Project Marie – in which dozens of individuals were ticketed for bylaw infractions and trespassing in Etobicoke’s Marie Curtis Park – as a case study. Drawing from queer geography and urban political ecology, this thesis examines how heteronormativity is reproduced through and embedded in the planning, governance and regulation of urban park space. I situate this case study within discussions of the socio-political conditions and decisions that shape urban natures that construct and confine park spaces. The paper uses interviews and a critical discourse analysis of the media and grey literature surrounding Project Marie to demonstrate social regulation and enforcement of heteronormative ideas of public park space. ii Acknowledgments I would like to acknowledge that my research and studies takes place on the traditional territories of the Mississauga of the New Credit and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy in Gichi Kiiwenging / Tkaronto / Toronto. Visiting, researching and writing about a new-to-me space along the lakeshore, where Etobicoke creek meets the lake, deepened my appreciation for this great body of water, Gichi- zaaga’igna / Lake Ontario.

  • Homosexuality and Prostitution: a Tale of Two Deviancies Ummni Khan
    Homosexuality and prostitution: A tale of two deviancies Ummni Khan University of Toronto Law Journal, Volume 70, Number 3, Summer 2020, pp. 283-305 (Article) Published by University of Toronto Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/760438 [ Access provided at 31 Dec 2020 13:39 GMT from University of Ottawa ] Ummni Khan* HOMOSEXUALITY AND PROSTITUTION: A TALE OF TWO DEVIANCIES† Historically, homosexuality and prostitution were both branded immoral vices that required crim- inalization, despite the fact that they were also considered ‘victimless crimes.’ Yet, in contemporary Canadian society, gays and lesbians have gained wide social acceptance and legal rights, while the sex trade has become more criminalized, stigmatized, and, for clients or third parties, vilified. This article explores the reasons for this divergence. First, drawing on radical queer critique, I problematize this framing, arguing that the equality and rights-based victories for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans community did not necessarily benefit all of its members. Building on this insight, I argue that those queers who are unable or uninterested in accessing the benefits ushered in by ‘gay rights’ have identities, proclivities, and vulnerabilities that overlap with those of sex workers and/or their clients. Part I of the article sets the socio-legal and political context, providing succinct overviews of key developments relating to gay and lesbian rights and of key developments relating to sex trade regulation, focusing primarily on the last fifty years. Part II analyses how 10.3138/utlj.2019-0082 gay/lesbian mainstream acceptance and the queer/sex trade marginalization occurred through e20190082 overlapping discourses and laws related to privacy, bawdy houses/indecency, disease, spousal/ 70 marital relations, and children.

    A Monster for Our Times: Reading Sade across the Centuries Matthew Bridge Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 © 2011 Matthew Bridge All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT A Monster for Our Times: Reading Sade across the Centuries Matthew Bridge This doctoral dissertation looks at several readings and interpretations of the works of the Marquis de Sade, from the eighteenth century to the present. Ever since he was imprisoned under the Old Regime following highly publicized instances of physical and sexual abuse, Sade has remained a controversial figure who has been both condemned as a dangerous criminal and celebrated as an icon for artistic freedom. The most enduring aspect of his legacy has been a vast collection of obscene publications, characterized by detailed descriptions of sexual torture and murder, along with philosophical diatribes that offer theoretical justifications for the atrocities. Not surprisingly, Sade’s works have been subject to censorship almost from the beginning, leading to the author’s imprisonment under Napoleon and to the eventual trials of his mid-twentieth-century publishers in France and Japan. The following pages examine the reception of Sade’s works in relation to the legal concept of obscenity, which provides a consistent framework for textual interpretation from the 1790s to the present. I begin with a prelude discussing the 1956 trial of Jean-Jacques Pauvert, in order to situate the remainder of the dissertation within the context of how readers approached a body of work as quintessentially obscene as that of Sade.

  • Queer Quarantine: Conceptualizing State and Dominant Cultural Responses to Queer Threats As Discursive Tactics and Technologies of Quarantine
    Queer Quarantine: Conceptualizing State and Dominant Cultural Responses to Queer Threats as Discursive Tactics and Technologies of Quarantine by Péter Balogh A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Canadian Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Péter Balogh Abstract This study explores queer quarantine, my conceptualization of processes and practices aimed at assessing, diagnosing and isolating queer threats to the nation. In theorizing queer quarantine, I draw upon the longstanding conflation of queerness with disease and contagion, and build a case for reading the isolation, containment and casting out of queerness as an assemblage of discursive tactics and technologies aimed at quarantining queers beyond conventional understandings of quarantine. I examine the ways queers are imagined to threaten public space, healthy bodies, and the future of the nation, and provide a new accounting for so-called homophobic policies and practices deployed in statecraft and dominant culture. I also trace the emergence of the queer AIDS monster, an effect of disciplinary tactics of queer quarantine and a particular discursive formation in its own right. My study has two aims: building a case for queer quarantine and, at the same time, demonstrating how queer quarantine can be used as a new model of analysis to identify and explore some of the ways the Canadian state and dominant culture continue to marginalize and oppress queers despite the rights gains and “acceptance” that some gays and lesbians have achieved. My analysis reveals that in 1970s Toronto, the rapidly increasing visibility of queerness became a public threat necessitating tactical responses from local authorities and the police to quarantine queer spaces.

  • Victimhood and Socio-Legal Narratives of Hate Crime Against Queer Communities in Canada, 1985-2003
    VICTIMHOOD AND SOCIO-LEGAL NARRATIVES OF HATE CRIME AGAINST QUEER COMMUNITIES IN CANADA, 1985-2003 b y Allyson M. Lunny A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the Doctoral degree. Centre of Criminology University of Toronto © Copyright by Allyson M. Lunny 2011 Victimhood and Socio-legal Narratives of Hate Crime Against Queer Communities in Canada, 1985-2003 Allyson M. Lunny Doctoral Degree Centre of Criminology University of Toronto 2011 Abstract This dissertation analyzes personal and institutional narratives that shape the Canadian phenomenon of anti-LGBT violence as hate crime and locate queers within and without the discursive figure of the responsible, legitimate and undeserving victim of hate crime. These socio-legal narratives were taken from interviews with LGBT community activists involved in anti-violence projects, mainstream and gay print news media reportage of two notable homicides, Parliamentary debates of the enhanced sentencing provision that sought to include ‘sexual orientation’ to the list of biased motivating factors, Senate witness testimony on the amendment to Canada’s hate propaganda statutes which sought to include ‘sexual orientation’ to the list of protected groups, interviews with police officers who had direct experience with anti-hate crime initiatives, and judicial reasons for sentence. Utilizing an interdisciplinary analysis and drawing on hate crime scholarship and victimology, this dissertation asks: how is legitimate and, consequently, illegitimate LGBT hate crime victimization being represented and constituted through Canadian socio-legal narratives? ii In revealing how socio-legal actors and institutions have positioned LGBT individuals discursively within or without legitimate victimhood, that is, within and without the status of innocent victim deserving of social empathy and socio-legal institutional response, my dissertation illustrates how the spectre of illegitimate victimization is repeatedly invoked in socio-legal narratives of anti-LGBT hate crime.

  • Re: OAITH Announces Mission and Vision During Pride Month OAITH Is Pleased to Announce That After a 1-Year Engagement Process W
    Re: OAITH Announces Mission and Vision During Pride Month OAITH is pleased to announce that after a 1-year engagement process with our membership that we’ve developed a new mission and vision for the association that reflects and is inclusive of our membership and those accessing gender-based violence services and supports. Developing a vision and mission for a vibrant organization like OAITH, brings both opportunities to look at our history and to transforming our future, and the role we play in that ongoing process of structural and systemic change. “In understanding our past, OAITH acknowledges that feminist movement(s) and the services offered by women’s shelters has had a negative impact and at times a very harmful approach when responding to communities outside of the dominant gender-binary, who’ve experienced gender-based violence.i ii As an association, we’ve taken steps over the past number of years to support our members through training, policy and resource development to better support 2-Spirited, Trans, Gender-Queer, Gender Non-Conforming and Gender-Diverse Communities. We recognize that there is more that needs to be done and we remain committed to this process.” -Marlene Ham, Executive Director In 2017, OAITH joined organizations in support of Bill C-16, An Act to Amend the Canadian Human Rights Act and the Criminal Code, with a written submission to The Senate: “As individuals and organizations committed to ending gender-based violence in Canada, we wish to see a concerted effort to support all survivors — including trans, two-spirit and gender diverse people.

  • Aubrey Beardsley, Salome and Satire
    AUBREY BEARDSLEY, SALOME AND SATIRE I SusanOwens PhD Degree University College London 2002 LD USW. Abstract This thesis proposes that the illustrations produced by Aubrey Beardsley for the first English edition of Oscar Wilde's play Salonzi are primarily motivated by a strong satirical agenda.Whilst it has usually been acknowledged that this group of illustrations harbours some satirical elements, these have never before been regarded as anything other than isolated occurrences. The iconography of Beardsley's Salomi illustrations has rarely been subjected to close visual analysis or lengthy explication. All early studies of Beardsley's work and the pioneering and monumental cataloguing work carried out in the 1960sinevitably contain a number of misconstructions and lacunae. Recent critical accounts of the Salomi illustrations, mostly theory-led and written from outside the discipline of art history, have on the one hand relied upon these interpretations, yet have on the other hand espousedvarious degreesof epistemological scepticism and historical relativism not calculated to provide new interpretations of these images in the light of their historical contexts. Countering this tendency, this thesis sets out to establish these contexts and to identify and explain thejokes which run throughout this sequenceof illustrations. As a preliminary step to this analysis, my first chapter narrates a production history of the illustrations, and unravels the complex sequenceof events relating to the commission. A second chapter surveys late nineteenth-century conventions of satire and literary and visual caricatures of Beardsley's principal target, Wilde. Following this, the body of the thesis is devoted to a detailed account of each image.
