Subject: query regarding terms in French and/or Italian


A friend of mine is translating a queer theory book into Italian, and I was
wondering if any of you knew the Italian and/or French translations of the
terms below:

- the phenomenon of radical or gender-fuck drag
- gender-bending
- cross-purposes
- bull (or diesel) dykes (camionneuse?)
-nightstick

Either send responses to me, or directly to him at
<gasparomagnifico at yahoo.com>.

Thanks a lot.

         A masterpiece is not the result of a sudden inspiration but the
product of a lifetime of thought.
