Bodies and Boundaries of UK Bear Spaces

Bodies & Boundaries of UK Bear Spaces is an exploration of the spaces of the UK’s Bear community - and the people who are in them. It is of value to anyone interested in Bears and/or LGBTQ spaces, as well as scholars of men and masculinities, bodies and fatness, gender studies, and sexuality and queer studies.

Nick McGlynn is a senior lecturer in Geography at the University of Brighton (UK). His research has explored the experiences of fat GBQ men in UK Bear spaces; the geographies of LGBTQ equalities and policymaking; and making ’liveable’ lives for sexual and gender minorities.
