  21. Tube Map of Queer Authors

    Look what a UK friend pointed out to me the other day (thanks, Linda!): a Tube Map of Queer Authors put together by the Barbican & Community Libraries, London.

    As usual, they’ve mischaracterised me/my work—I should be on a nexus point between the red, yellow, green, and blue lines—and if I had to be connected to only one line, it should be the red one—after all, I’ve written many more non-SFF novels than SFF. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to distance myself from SFF—I love SFF!—but it’s only part of what I do. Having said that, look at where SFF is placed—the smallest line, looped and self-contained, as though SFF has no influence on (or is influenced by) any other literature. Always relegated to the back corner of the store… Or, well, fuck it, no. Let say sui generis (if a whole genre can be singular).

    But, hey, it’s a cool map. And I can’t blame the map makers, really—I mean every critic/reviewer and her mother gets confused about what I write; it’s why I hired publicists last year. Sadly, not even they could turn that liner, steaming majestically ahead on its own course 🙄 Oh, well.

    As I say, though, still cool: filling the sandwich of Arthur C. Clarke and Octavia Butler. And hey, how could one possibly complain about being on the bottom line of everything, alongside Sappho??

  28. A quotation from Madeleine L'Engle

    The writer whose words are going to be read by children has a heavy responsibility. And yet, despite the undeniable fact that the children’s minds are tender, they are also far more tough than many people realize, and they have an openness and an ability to grapple with difficult concepts which many adults have lost. Writers of children’s literature are set apart by their willingness to confront difficult questions.

    Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
    Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

  32. Dépossession des femmes et reproduction du patriarcat par la famille et le droit

    #Écoutez Céline Bessière, professeure de sociologie à l’Université Paris-Dauphine, et Sybille Gollac, sociologue chargée de recherche au CNRS en 2021 : spectremedia.org/podcast/le-ge

    Céline Bessière à 57min : "Quand on lit un acte notarié, on a l'impression que le partage égalitaire a eu lieu. Ça rentre dans les cases du droit. […] Leur intervention, elle consiste précisément à cacher les inégalités patrimoniales, et à les légitimer, et à les naturaliser."
    @sibyllegollac à 59 min : Les notaires et les avocat·es "aident leur client·e [fortuné·e] à sous-estimer, par exemple, une masse successorale ou un patrimoine conjugal, à la fois pour des raisons fiscales et […] sous-évaluer en fait la part reçue pour les hommes pour des compensations moindres à donner à leurs frères et soeurs ou à leur ex-conjointe."

  36. “Aucun de nos #employés ayant travaillé sur la V2 [de #Deepseek ] n’a été formé à l’ #étranger, tous étaient des #locaux. [..] Or c’est justement à nous de faire #émerger ce #genre de #profils.”

  37. « Ce que les territoires font à leurs habitantes »

    Celles qui restent ne dépassent pas le baccalauréat. "Elles optent largement pour des filières de formation très genrées (notamment dans le service à la personne) qui proposent des métiers souvent expérimentés par leur mère ou leurs amies."

    "Des conditions de travail particulièrement pénibles sont soulignées : nombre de jeunes femmes enquêtées insistent sur les horaires décalés, fractionnés, la dureté des conditions de travail, les contrats de travail non conformes à la loi, la faiblesse des rémunérations… Pour pallier ces réalités, une partie des jeunes femmes se tournent vers les métiers de la sécurité (police, armée, pompiers) et y trouvent une certaine stabilité de l’emploi ainsi que des revenus plus constants."

    "Chez soi est le lieu principal de développement des loisirs des jeunes femmes rurales."

    Il faut être en couple hétérosexuel pour se conformer, pour faire la « preuve de sa valeur sur le marché affectif et relationnel ».

  38. Margot Déage : "Une fille qui n’est pas appropriée par un garçon ou par un homme peut à tout moment basculer dans la catégorie des putes, et qlq soient ses vêtements, et qlq soient ses pratiques sexuelles."

    Margot Déage : "Le fait de dire qui est une pute et qui est une fille bien, c’est un pouvoir en soi dans le groupe des filles ; qui est fortement mobilisé par certaines filles. Celles qui peuvent tomber, en général, sont les plus dures sur le sujet."

  39. Et si je contrebalançais mes derniers posts tristes avec quelque chose de chouette ?

    Y a deux projets linguistiques qui me tiennent très à coeur:

    1. travailler avec d'autres personnes #queer sur le lexique et la grammaire neutre/dégenrée française

    Les vieilles formes du français et les langues régionales peuvent nous apprendre beaucoup sur le genre neutre, et il n'est très gratifiant de même créer des choses avec simplement la phonologie française et l'orthographe. Pas besoin de citer les #neopronoms comme exemple !

    2. Aider les langues régionales françaises à revivre, à survivre et à se faire réapproprier par leurs locuteurs
    (pour moi focus sur le #breton / #brezhoneg et le #poitevin / #Poetevin )

    Ces langues pourraient bien aussi bénéficier de groupes de travail sur les termes queer, sur la #sexualite le #genre les dynamiques romantiques etc !

    Il me semble qu'un lexique queer et féministe doit sortir cette année ou l'année prochaine par le collectif #difenn en Bretagne
