This article the bat surroundg the age of nsent as a broad umbrella to qutn the ntued efulns of Queer Theory. The bat surroundg the age of nsent illtrate that Queer Theory has not fulfilled s origal promise and that is not (and possibly never been), “f for purpose”. Towards the end of 2013, the topic of lowerg the age of nsent England and Wal was once aga much the news. This article suggts that much of that bate foced exprsly or impliedly on the age of which men and boys have sexual terurse (whether gay or straight), rather than when people have sexual terurse. Queer Theory (origatg om femism), was tend to be a liberatg phenomenon, but ntrary to the hop and tentns, Queer Theory evolved to bee synonymo wh whe gay men, th nyg s origs and beg distctly anti-femist. Those who argue for a rctn the age of nsent have ed (whether knowgly or not) an approach which is nsistent wh this evolved versn of Queer Theory. Consequently, the bate on the age of nsent has ignored, or given sufficient attentn to, the effect(s) a lowerg of the age of nsent will have on girls and women. This article, therefore, seeks to qutn, dispt and unsettle, what Queer Theory has bee, suggtg that, several signifint aspects, fails to fully acknowledge patriarchy; renr (lbian) women visible; acknowledge and acmodate the lived experienc of women.

Dpe beg a 17-year veteran — he was drafted one year after Chris Pl, and one pick ahead of Patrick O’Bryant — Gay has never shared an NBA locker room wh any Warrrs. Not only have they played (and ached) agast him for years, but Gay was teammat wh Steph Curry and Klay Thompson on the Team USA squad that won gold at the 2014 FIBA World Cup, and also teammat wh Curry (and Andre Iguodala) on the gold medal-wng 2010 team.
Perhaps most importantly, Gay spent four seasons — four recent seasons, crilly — playg for the San Anton Spurs and Steve Kerr’s mentor, Gregg Popovich.

It’s easy to make the se for Gay, sce the Warrrs rotatn seems pretty set as is, wh an 11-player rotatn of Curry, Pl, Thompson, Wiggs, Green, Kumga, Moody, Kevon Looney, Gary Payton II, Dar Šarić, and Cory Joseph.

Acrdg to proponents of the theory, the mother’s immune rponse is changed durg the pregnancy of a boy, creasg the likelihood that a subsequent male child would be gay.

Over time, “queer” veloped as a pejorative term to scribe someone who was “homosexual”, particularly the late 1800s and early 1900s the US.
