Abstract

Amidst the long-existing oppression against queer community, LGBTQ+ movement has gained substantial social awareness and legislative rights since the late 20th century. The inspiration for this research comes from the underlying contrast between the rising reception of queer community and opposition of them from various aspects of society. Intending to look for an approach that LGBTQ+ people can rely on outside of politics and sociology, this paper will identify problems and address how these conflicts and challenges of LGBT movement can be resolved by queer theory from the field of literature. The purpose and goal of this paper is to explore and examine the extent that queer theory can be adapted in order to foster social changes.
