This article examines how we, two scholars with different backgrounds in terms of geography, education, profession, and sexuality, came together to support one another in teaching and writing 'queerly'. Our professional evolution is explored with a particular focus on collaborating across difference to create a supportive and enriching form of scholarship that emerges both from similar political commitments (e.g. social justice) and from differences of perspective.

Using queer theory as a theoretical anchor, we have created new and innovative insights about sexuality and gender.
