In the Nineties, the authors of the Queer theory proposed a definition of femininity and masculinity in terms of performance in opposition at the same time to feminism essentialist affirming a natural truth of the difference of the sexes and to the normative speeches. It is a question of disturbing the order of the kinds in public space to disturb it, to disturb it and question the hétérosexuelle standard. Because the body is “jointly”, it is a question here of letting emerge all that the body beyond the standards and of the identities built by the ideological regulation says where it is necessary to distinguish the sex (reality anatomical) and the kind (social and psychological construction). To affirm the identity dissidences and distortions, to invent new erotic, sexual configurations, relational, of filiation, knowing, being able, here are the stakes!
Program conceived and presented by Genevieve Vincent.
