→Shakespeare?
''It is also criticized for bringing analyses of homosexuality and gender confusion to classic texts that are hardly suggestive of any genderbending or homosexual themes, such as Shakespeare...'' Um, am I reading this right? That it is saying there is no genderbending in Shakespeare? Referring to those plays in which girls' parts were performed by boys, and in many of which various characters are disguised as the opposite gender? So there would be boys playing girls who are pretending to be boys? No genderbending? Just checking. --[[User:Hsmom|Hsmom]] 22:58, 13 November 2008 (EST)

:I notice there aren't any citations for this page. I've never heard of queer theory, so it's hard for me to tell what is right and what is made up. [[User:HelpJazz|Help]][[User talk:HelpJazz|Jazz]] 23:01, 13 November 2008 (EST)
