“The sexual encounter is queer because both partners are queer and the genders of the participants less relevant. Just because Batman is male and Catwoman is female does not make their interactions heterosexual — think about it, there is nothing straight about two people getting it on in rubber and latex costumes, wearing eyemasks and carrying whips and other accouterments.”
- J. Halberstam, “Queer Creatures,” On Our Backs Nov/Dec 1992
