  what a SHITTY class period we just had. queer studies is no longer a class i look forward to attending. here's my post-class post. Yikes! Next time Ill do a little shadow boxing in the hallway before coming.
Or resign myself to the position of silence so many of you have taken in class discussion. Personally, I dont like having conversations imbued with so much confrontation. Being angry doesnt facilitate my learning. Today There wasnt a whole lot of room for actual discussion, with actual listening, with respect for opposing opinions or viewpoints not deemed valid (without rudely shutting people down). Its so valuable to be able to talk about this /together/, and I think, like many others, that todays class denied that possibility. Terence, Im sorry you were shut up. And the guy whose comment was deemed bullshit later on. I dont know your name, dude.
Forgive me. Ive got a lot of homework for my four other classes that Ive put on the back burner somewhat in favour of attending to this class. I need to get back to that. See you next week. And I look forward to hearing your responses to the film. Ill write mine next week. Charlotte Conrad
