My queer body will not bend to your cis white ableist capitalist heteropatriarchy that abuses this earth and its people. My queer body is a vessel for my queer heart and mind, neither of which you are allowed to have or break. My queer body is absolutely magical even though I have not always known this. Even though I have spent most of my life failing to understand or appreciate it, my queer body remains. My queer body is here and it is hairy. It is angry most days, yet remains capable of love. My queer heart, body, and mind are capable of love when they have not always received it from myself or this world. My queer body is tired, and happy, and sensual, and frustrated, and it loves chocolate. My queer body is not an inclusivity addendum: it is included in my presence and being, in my thoughts, feelings and speech. I cannot be separated from it. And I love that. I love my queer body—or at least I’m learning to. I love all the things it can and can’t do, all of its flaws and imperfections and the weird and wonderful things it makes me feel. So my queer body demands revolution. It demands nuanced understandings of self-love and goodness. It demands to be in the forefront of society’s mind, not relegated to an afterthought. My queer body demands radical, difficult, and utterly life-changing conversations surrounding it. Not just my queer body but all bodies. This is the revolution we deserve.
About Us
The Argosy is the independent student journal of news, opinion, and the arts. Our content is written, edited, and funded by the students of Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick.
I am a fourth-year English major from Halifax, NS. This is my second year as Co-Editor-in-Chief and third year on The Argosy team. The Argosy has been the highlight of my time at Mt. A. I look forward to sharing more stories and making lasting memories with the wonderful team of students at The Argosy this year.

This is my third year with The Argosy and my second editing the Arts and Culture section. From Moncton NB, I study English and drama - aspiring storyteller of SOME kind - and learned how to spell ridiculous three months ago. Say hi and share your story anytime! (She/Her)

As a
news reporter this year I
am excited to learn more
about the people of
Sackville.

Hailing from the majestic Himalayas, I have always been captivated by the breathtaking beauty of the mountains. It is through this admiration that I discovered my profound passion for photography. I am beyond excited to bring my enthusiasm, dedication, and love for capturing moments to The Argosy team.
