Feedback on article contribution

[edit]

Comments are in no particular order:

  • See Wiki Manual of Style on formatting titles
  • syntax ambiguity in this sentence: Wilde uses this framework to broaden the scale of sexual identity from a simple binary continuum of “mono-sexual” to “bisexual”, and to establish similarities and relationships between these identities that do not alienate those without a single “fixed object” of attraction. - What is the referent for the phrase that begins with, "that?"
  • Viewpoints like Wilde's?
  • applied by whom?
  • Would it be appropriate to articulate an underlying assumption of this theoretical project - that sexual fluidity is not a modern phenomenon, that instances are highly likely to have existed in much if not all of human history whether acknowledged or not?
  • Is D.S. Neff's work an example? If so - transition phrases such as, "for example" really do mental grunt work for readers which makes your writing more accessible, facilitates uptake of both content and meaning.
  • Don't know how to understand this phrase: and in later implications of equal merit in both male and female lovers - can you clarify?
  • Is "exploits" a word that carries sensationalising connotations? If so, does the word eroticize in a way you would not wan to do?
  • Similarly, does "dalliances" trivialize?
  • In your last sentence - what is important about queer theory's movement according to the article you reference?
  • Possibilities for expansion certainly include additional examples although since your interest is in the framework rather than the examples, perhaps you have other thoughts.--Jagrif02 (talk) 15:14, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
