In-between bodies: Sexual difference, race and sexuality

---

In-Between Bodies: Sexual Difference, Race and Sexuality explores how bodies situated at the intersections of gender, race, and sexuality are constructed, regulated, and experienced within social and cultural contexts. The book examines how dominant discourses—medical, legal, political, and popular—produce meanings about “normal” and “deviant” bodies, shaping lived experiences and reinforcing unequal power structures. Through theoretical analysis and case studies, it highlights how racialized and gendered bodies often occupy “in-between” spaces, navigating identity, desire, and belonging amid competing norms and expectations. The work argues that understanding these layered intersections is essential for recognizing how oppression and agency coexist in complex ways. By foregrounding marginalized perspectives, the book challenges fixed notions of identity and opens space for more fluid, inclusive understandings of embodiment and sexuality.
