queer ir ne tikai savāds vai gejs, bet tas bieži tiek lietots arī kā umbrella term visām seksuālajām minoritātēm, nu, gan geji/lesbietes, gan transseksuāļi, etc. anything but ordinary. ''Queer is an umbrella term for sexual minorities[1] that are not heterosexual, heteronormative, or gender-binary. In the context of Western identity politics the term also acts as a label setting queer-identifying people apart from discourse, ideologies, and lifestyles that typify mainstream LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transsexual) communities as being oppressive or assimilationist.''
tādā nozīmē es nezinu, kā to sauc latviski. kā arī ir visādas queer theories un queer criticisms, kas nozīmē literatūras/kino/jebkā cita skatīšanu caur šo queer prizmu.
