Résumé: | In light of the Protestant valorization of a liberal way of life and the related call for concretization of the individual, this study’s objectives are threefold: (1) in exposing the “queer” aspects of different family types and (2) the denominational concept of “reformation”—the latter being the more sensational of the two—(3) the homology of these two discoveries should be discussed. Does the connection between “queer and family” and “queer and reformed” make a queer understanding of reformed family possible? Furthermore, does an ethical perspective support or oppose such a pairing? A concretion should be added to this analysis using the example of marriage equality, a topic that has also been discussed in Reformed churches. This article argues that problems with justice are not created by queer families or marriage equality, but rather by restrictive models of family and marriage. |
