Berkeley Offers Lecture on "Queer Agriculture"
Pundit Press ^ | 2/10/15 | Aurelius

The University of California, Berkeley is offering a lecture today on "queer agriculture."

Presented by Bailey Kier from the University of Maryland, the talk is officially titled, "Queering Agriculture: Food Security in the Nation's Capital and the Crises of Reproductive American Familism."

The description of the talk asks, "Why queer agriculture," then answers, "This talk highlights vital ways queering and trans-ing ideas and practices of agriculture are necessary for more sustainable, sovereign, and equitable food systems for the creatures and systems involved in systemic reproductions that feed humans and other creatures.

"Since agriculture is literally the backbone of economics, politics, and “civilized” life as we know it," it continues, "and the manipulation of reproduction and sexuality are a foundation of agriculture, it is absolutely crucial queer and transgender studies begin to deal more seriously with the subject of agriculture."

It goes on, "it will become clearer how the growing popularity of sustainable food is laden with anthroheterocentric assumptions of the “good life” coupled with idealized images and ideas of the American farm, and gender, radicalized and normative standards of health, family, and nation."

One male sticking his penis into the anal canal of another male is the height of human intellectual achievement.

Whoa, the deep thinkers at Berkeley have discovered agriculture! Umm...guys, I hate to be the one to break it to you, but animal husbandry doesn’t mean what you think it means...

It all depends on the spaghetti crop in Italy and Switzerland.

Sounds about right for a bunch of city folks who have no idea about farming and raising crops, even a garden either vegetable or flower.

...”food systems for the creatures and systems involved in systemic reproductions that feed humans and other creatures.”
Queue in “other creatures”—you mean queers!
