Is Queer Biology a Useful Tool for Queer Theology?

In recent years a number of queer theologians have drawn on the work of Judith Butler and Thomas Laqueur to provide a framework for their project of destabilizing Christian understandings of the nature of sex, gender and sexuality. In this article I link this work with evidence drawn from biology to...

520 |a In recent years a number of queer theologians have drawn on the work of Judith Butler and Thomas Laqueur to provide a framework for their project of destabilizing Christian understandings of the nature of sex, gender and sexuality. In this article I link this work with evidence drawn from biology to argue that, in addition to examples of bodies which, through nature or volition, disturb our notions of two distinct ontological categories—male and female—there is also a range of evidence that would indicate that all bodies are less sexually dimorphic than might be supposed. This evidence has potentially liberating and far-reaching implications for conservative theological understandings of the body, making it a useful tool in the armoury of queer theological discourse.
