Genderqueer and Non-Binary Genders
Critical and Applied Approaches in Sexuality, Gender and Identity Series Editor: Christina Richards GENDERQUEER AND NON-BINARY GENDERS Edited by Christina Richards Walter Pierre Bouman Meg-John Barker Critical and Applied Approaches in Sexuality, Gender and Identity Behavioral Science and Psychology Series editor Christina Richards London, United Kingdom This series brings together scholars from a range of disciplines who have produced work which both informs the academy and, crucially, has real-world applied implications for a variety of different professions, including psychologists; psychiatrists; psychotherapists; counsellors; medical doctors; nurses; social workers; researchers and lecturers; gov- ernmental policy advisors; non-governmental policy advisors; and peer support workers, among others. The series critically considers intersec- tions between sexuality and gender; practice and identity; and theoreti- cal and applied arenas – as well as questioning, where appropriate, the nature or reality of the boundaries between them. In short, it aims to build castles in the sky we can live in – after all the view is nothing, without a place to stand.

TREND ALERT: COMING OUT OF THE CLOSET near Seattle, tucked away off the Puget Sound, there’s a sovereign nation whose citizens can marry whoever they choose. They’re called the Suquamish, and they were there before Washington was a president, much less a state. The Suquamish enjoy the right to same-sex marriage, thanks to Heather Purser, a 29- year-old lesbian tribal member who grew up near the reservation. She’d already tried to come out of the closet twice during her childhood, and retreated both times before she arrived at Western Washington University and started attending LGBT events. “I saw that I could be safe there,” she says. “I decided I wanted to have that feeling back home, too.” Purser began speaking with her tribe about same-sex marriage in 2007. A year later, she addressed the tribal council, which cautiously encouraged her cause. She did her research: contacting a tribe that had recently passed a similar law, requesting copies of their ordinance, reviewing it with an attorney, and translating it into Suquamish.
