Homerito, te felicito por el éxito que estás alcanzando en esa nación, ánimo, personas como tú nos llenan de orgullo y satisfacción. Ya le comentaré a Juliana y a Domingo Alfonso que busquen esta página. Homero, si viviera, se sentiría también muy orgulloso de ti.

Saludos sinceros de,

Tineo, bravo por tus poemas de la cotidianidad. Me gustaron, pero siento que "Prórroga" está inconcluso, me quedé queriendo saber más acerca del "umbral de la muerte"...

Un abrazo,

Pedro

Comment on "What Language Does my Body Remember? Simple Meditations on the Language of a Multilingual Queen at Queens" by Brian

As a very mature out gay man 'coming back to the academy' I enjoy this thoughtful discussion and hope to find ways to contribute. I was a psycholinguistics student in my long ago undergrad days, and was then—as now—fascinated by the describable argot of "gay" in ASL, English, German, Dutch... and the transcendent social issues of 'in' and 'out' groups when it comes to permission to use the perjorative in a disarmed way...

I have also wondered at the almost unquestioning rush to embrace a visible stereotype by the very young out 'bois' (in really three generations, the way we count them) but also my studied attempt to 'be me' (still not sure what that means) and defy all labels, but not as an end in itself. Seems there are ways to look at the very queer youth as both strong and insecure, and 'my type' as a not-exact compliment. I tend to admire them from a distance but they do not understand or 'recognize' me-at all!

Wonder if latterday gaydar sets do not pick up on the traditional channels, even when I am broadcasting (I would say) 'in the clear.'

We are subject and researcher... so still vulnerable to the charge of narcissism, if just at a moderately abstracted level. Oh well!

Thanks for the provocative post; sorry for the 'rambling.'

"Verdaderamnte excepcional" Disfuto mucho con la sencillez del lexico y la carga semantica que Juan imprime en sus trabajos literarios.
