That's actually a very good article. I almost didn't read it after seeing the idiotic innuendos on the first few pages (the organizations the author criticizes are dominated by WHITE MALES! They were created around the SAME TIME that the U.S. stepped up a propaganda campaign against the USSR!).
This list is mostly inhabited by academics, so I'm assuming that most people have access to the Joseph Massad article via the Project Muse link that I posted. If anyone doesn't have it and wants to read it, you can contact me offlist. Serious studies of sexuality and sexual politics from a queer angle concerning societies in North Africa and West Asia have not been many. This is one of the useful ones, though the author can be a little polemical at times (then again, he's up against the dominant ideology that has gone unchallenged for too long). -- Yoshie <http://montages.blogspot.com/> <http://mrzine.org> <http://monthlyreview.org/>
