Here is the Urban Dictionary page for "queering" that we were talking about in class: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=queering. What confused me specifically was this definition of queering: "Forcible anal sex given to a man, usually by a group of 4-5 men, not for the purposes of enjoying the experience, but to teach the victim a lesson or punish him." I have never heard it defined this way before, and the violence of the definition shocked me so much so that I intially thought it was a made-up comment by someone trolling the site.

I think this is where urban
I think this is where urban dictionary can really go wrong. . . or maybe it is good to be able to see how some people can think such horrible things? Or how words can take on a completely different definition than what you thought it could mean. . . Here is another definition that I found. The word "convert" seems totally wrong here. No one can be "converted" into their true sexual orientation or attractive to another, it is innate.
