How do class distinctions work to exclude trans gender women from LGBT HIV-related care? What new opportunities for queer b elonging, desire, and exclusion do digital media platforms offer? What are possibilities for Muslim queer care, belonging, and politics in an increasi ngly hardliner Islamic contexts? How do global sexual health discourses cre ate new queer categorizations?\n\nThrough questions such as these, this pan el addresses queer (in)visibility in twenty-first century Southeast Asia at the intersection of class, politics, and global sexual health. For queer S outheast Asians, frictions between moral, political, and economic ideologie s and practices affect possibilities for being and belonging in multiple an d often contradictory ways. While rights-based activism, global health conc erns, and an expansion of the middle classes have opened up new avenues for queer visibility and relationality, they have obscured others. While incre asing homo– and transphobia threaten queer social, political, and actual li ves, contemporary processes of marginalization also present new opportuniti es for interstitial connections and organization.\n\nThe members of this pa nel combine their disciplinary insights from the arts, anthropology, and qu eer studies by drawing on their work in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Tha iland. In so doing, they turn to the topic of queer Southeast Asian (in)vis ibility to look for forms of Southeast Asian queerness both highlighted and neglected in the hegemonic ontological and ideological perspectives of lib eral economics, liberal humanism, and global health discourses. By attendin g to such processes of making visible and rendering invisible, we commit to queering the transnational turn (Chiang and Wong 2016). One that refuses a Euro-centric perspective in rendering Southeast Asian queerness as mere em pirical objects of study severed from “theory” proper (Chen 2010). Instead, we deploy our commitment to a Southeast Asian queer regionalism (Martin et al. 2008: 15) as a means for rethinking queer possibilities for being, com munity, and politics.
