About this issue...."In this issue, the authors and artists critically consider how two axes of difference, gender and sexuality, intersect in the urban realm. Drawing on feminist theory, queer theory, critical race theory, and social theory the contributors consider how the categories of "woman" and "man" are constructed through a critical examination of the lived embodied experiences of transgendered and transsexual people in urban environments." - Alison Bain
