From a paper I'm presenting in 24 hours:
"But what if we were to flip the script of medical photodocumentation and reception? What if we were to restore a certain libidinality, a certain sexiness, to the documentation of intersexed bodies? What sort of reception would this prompt? What sort of relinquishing of ‘common sense’ conceptions regarding sexed intelligibility, and further, sexuality/sexual politics would be necessary to view this sort of image while abstaining from the all-too-predictable guesses as to what one is seeing, guesses typically framed by an implicit assumption of a binary structuration of sex?"
