摘要
This article examines queer intimacies produced by and within a growing industry in assisting human reproduction. Queer users of fertility biomedicine such as gay men, gender queer, and transgender people are constituted within expanded biomedical fertility services in ways similar to their heterosexual counterparts, reproduce more than humans: they reproduce consumer marketplaces, normativities, notions of belonging, and intensifying inequalities. Yet as they negotiate and, at times, reinforce these contours, they also participate in new kinship forms as they demand inclusion in one of the most durable and supported social practices: having children.
