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
