Tentative Contributions/Revisions to passing (sociology)		-

Passing refers to the disguise, adoption, or rejection of identities or identity categories, resulting in boundary crossing, or moving from one legal or cultural boundary or category to another. Passing may result in certain privileges or rewards afforded as a result of boundary crossing, although motivations for passing may vary. Historically and genealogically, passing has been associated with racial passing, or crossing a racial line or boundary to escape oppression and gain privileges or status. In addition historic associations with racial passing, passing may refer to the disguise of other categories of identity, including class, ethnicity, sexuality, and gender. Elaine K. Ginsberg argues passing may be a method through which identity categories and boundaries may be challenged. ^[1]

"Passing is not simply about erasure or denial...but about the creation and establishment of an alternative set of narratives. It becomes a way of creating new stories out of unusable ones, or from personal narratives seemingly in conflict with other aspects of self-presentation." "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is an example of a policy in which individuals must pass as heterosexual. ^[2]
