Looking for info to disprove this stigma, I don’t really have much other than one academic research paper I found but I don’t think if the guy I’m arguing with would be willing to sit through and read that. He dismissed it as queer theory which he says has been “debunked” idk what the hell queer theory is. Anyway from what I can tell with this dude the simple and more obvious the better but it must also be backed by peer reviewed research

    It’s critically analyzing claims people make. I don’t think that falls under queer theory, just as debunking a factually incorrect claim doesn’t fall under critical theory.

    It sounds like he just wants to dismiss it. Is still be interested in knowing how queer theory has been debunked. I don’t see how you can debunk an entire field of academics. There are plenty of valid criticisms of modern economics, and although I would consider many of them to be accurate, I would never claim that economics has been debunked.
