• Description

  Opening the Horizons of the Possible: On Non-binary Sexual and Sexual Identities in Slovenia "The work deals with the everyday life of sexually and / or sexually non-binary persons. It is a social group of those who do not identify with society with more or less familiar labels at the level of sexuality (heterosexuality - gay / lesbian) and at the level of gender (male / female). As such, at the level of society, they are often overlooked, perceived as non-existent, as well as subject to many prejudices and stereotypes, which is also confirmed by the data presented in the book. The work is based on 52 interviews with 23 sexually and / or sexually non-binary persons. It is certainly not a holistic insight into the complexity of their daily lives. In any case, it gives us an insight into the social burden of everyday life, into the grip of social structures and binary categorizations that these marginalized social groups face. This grip on social structures cannot be dealt with simply by a simple act of the will, since social structures are embodied in the actors themselves. However, if their narratives testify to the embodiment and "resilience" of structures, they also testify to the power of non-binary persons, which is also the power to create alternative divisions of the world, new - more inclusive - self-evident. In short, they testify to the power of expanding the horizons of the possible beyond what seems inevitable and fatal. We hope that the present work also contributes to this. "

  Delo obravnava vsakdanje življenje spolno in/ali seksualno nebinarnih oseb. Gre za družbeni skupini tistih, ki se ne identificirajo z družbi bolj ali manj poznanimi oznakami na ravni seksualnosti (heteroseksualnost – gej/lezbijka) in na ravni spola (moški/ženska). Kot taki sta na ravni družbe pogosto spregledani, percipirani kot neobstoječi, pa tudi deležni mnogih predsodkov in stereotipov, čemur pritrjujejo tudi podatki, predstavljeni v knjigi. Delo temelji na 52 intervjujih s 23 spolno in/ali seksualno nebinarnimi osebami. Zagotovo ne gre za celosten vpogled v kompleksnost njihovega vsakdanjega življenja. Vsekakor pa nam odstira vpogled v družbeno obteženost vsakdanjega življenja, v primež družbenih struktur in binarnih kategorizacij, s katerimi se omenjene marginalizirane družbene skupine spoprijemajo. S tem primežem družbenih struktur namreč ne gre opraviti zgolj s preprostim aktom volje, saj so družbene strukture utelešene v akterkah samih. Pa vendar – če njihove pripovedi pričajo o utelešenosti in »odpornosti« struktur, pričajo tudi o moči nebinarnih oseb, ki je tudi moč ustvarjanja alternativnih di-/vizij sveta, novih – bolj vključujočih – samoumevnosti. Skratka, pričajo o moči razpiranja horizontov možnega, ki presegajo to, kar se zdi neizogibno in usodno. K temu, upamo, prispeva tudi pričujoče delo
