Hi Laura,
I know of a PhD thesis which looks at gay men and disability using a Foucauldian perspective. It's by Terence O'Neil and should, I presume, be available via inter-library loan or similar, from Queen's University, Belfast - it's very good! y research is also based around gender and sexuality, using Foucault's notion of governmentality, along with friendship and queer theory, to look at transpeople's intimate partnerships. You might be interested in my research journal at http://www.livejournal.com/users/tam_phd/ I'm currently writing up to submit in September.

Hello,
My name is Laura Overstreet and I am a first year graduate student in sociology at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA. My concentration area of study is Gender and Sexuality, and I am planning to do my thesis research on how body image affects perceptions of sexuality among individuals with disabilities. I'll be taking a course on Sexuality in Society this semester and we will be reading Foucault, so I hope not only to learn more about his work for this course, but I also hope to incorporate his theories into my thesis research as well.
Thanks!
Laura
