5 Siebler, Kay
Learning queer identity in the digital age / Kay Siebler.
-- New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2016.
xi, 201 p. , 22cm.
ISBN : 9781137603227.
306.7601 SIE 146412
This book explores, through specific analysis of media
representations, personal interviews, and historical
research, how the digital environment perpetuates harmful
and limiting stereotypes of queerness. Siebler argues
that hetero normativity has co-opted queer
representations, largely in order to sell goods,
surgeries, and lifestyles, reinforcing instead of
disrupting the masculine and feminine heterosexual
binaries through capitalist consumption.
