Download or read book Queer Bodies written by Heather Jane Sykes and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2011 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a critical examination of discrimination based on sexuality, gender, and body size in Canadian physical education. It illustrates how students with queer bodies--whether lesbian, gay, trans-gendered, or overweight or fat--cope with homophobia, transphobia, and fat phobia in physical education. Drawing from qualitative interviews, the book reveals how students are marginalized because they do not conform to taken-for-granted ideas about healthy or athletic bodies.
