ily: "Representation, Discourse and Resistance": Representation, Discourse and Resistance "Whatever your own views, the point to note is that the gay movement has not simply rejected conventional representations of homosexuality as misrepresentations. Instead, it has attempted to rework the coding of those visual typifications that produced negative meanings so as to signity dignity, pride in one’s gayness and solidarity with other gay people. In this way gay people have challenged how they are represented, not by producing new representations, but by insisting on the revaluation of previously negative images. Through self-representation they are re-presenting homosexuality as a positive category. In doing so they have attempted to take control of the meanings produced, rather than allowing themselves to remain invisible and/or represented by others." -Judy Giles & Tim Middleton (Studying Culture: A Practical Introduction)
