Becoming Critically Glocal: Beyond North and South, Individuals and Cultures in Understanding Sexual Literacies
Abstract
Our editors Gilbert Herdt, Michelle Marzullo and Nicole Polen- Petit espouse a critical
situated analysis of sexualities, sexual literacies and sexual inequalities to move us beyond
“stale discussions of relativistic devolutions and risky universalisms” (p. 2). This is a great
aspiration that I share. Yet we also need to be constantly aware of the continuing legacies
of imperial genealogies in discussions of both diff erences and similarities in human
sexual experience and knowledge. This lingers in a tendency to focus on sexual literacies
for individuals in certain places and collectivities and cultures in others
