What Can Queer and Dance Do for Each Other?
“What makes a dance queer?” was one of many questions considered at Explode! Queer Dance, a festival that brought together artists and academics.Dance is a set of relationships people can have.
They are often though not necessarily sexual.
They are not necessarily discursive or participatory.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/discursive
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/discourse#English
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/discursive
Dance properly includes all human physical activity.
Queer in Abrahamic religious cultures implies a closeted homosexual. Maintaining the closeted status requires constant detailed observation of the general culture.
Think "Cake Walking".
