Queer Theory: Radical Tenderness

About Queer Theory: Radical Tenderness

“Radical tenderness is to share dreams, wildness
to tune in with, not just empathize with
it is to find a galaxy in the eyes of another and not break the gaze
to read the body of another as a palimpsest
radical tenderness is to channel irresistible energies and convert them into
untamable embodiments
is to activate sensorial memory
is to recognize the other by their scent
radical tenderness is to feel the possibility in every doubt
is to allow yourself to be pierced by the unknown”
‘Radical Tenderness Manifesto’ by La Pocha Nostra, 2005
