1. What do Robert McRuer and Abbie Wilkerson mean by "homonormativity"? According to their article, how can queer disability studies and activism/art resist it? How might Axis Dance Company's performances be considered an example of "desiring disability" and how might they be an example of this type of critique of homonormativity (or not, if you think this is the case)?
2. What does Jackie Stacey argue with regards to medical imaging technologies and gendered bodies in the 18th-21st century U.S.? What contemporary visual culture examples can you find of the medical "ways of seeing" that Stacey describes? How might McRuer and Wilkerson respond to the role that these imaging technologies play in constructing ideas about ability and disability?
