Despite renewed interest in suburban studies and a decentring of geographies of sexualities, the queer suburban remains a neglected arena of inquiry. This article argues for greater attention to ‘queer’ suburbanisms to deconstruct suburbia as implicitly heterosexualized. It critiques the persistent heteronormativity of key concepts – suburbanization, suburban diversification and suburbanisms – in Anglo-American-Australian suburban studies. It then remaps the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ+) urban by highlighting inconsistencies in queer metronormativities critiques and evaluating census studies and gay ethnographies to decentre the queer metropolis. The article concludes by complicating how queer metronormativities conceive of their margins and destabilizing the sexual contours of heterosuburbia.

尽管人们对郊区研究产生了新的兴趣，并且对性取向地理学的关注度有所下降，但该郊区郊区仍然是一个被忽略的研究领域。本文主张更加关注“酷儿”郊区主义，以解构暗含异性恋的郊区。它对英美澳式郊区研究中的关键概念（郊区化，郊区多元化和郊区主义）的持久异规范性提出了批评。然后，它通过突出显示同志计量学批评中的不一致之处，并评估普查研究和同志人种志，以分散同志大都市的位置，从而重新映射城市中的女同性恋，男同性恋，双性恋，跨性别和同志（LGBTQ +）。文章的结尾是使奇怪的计量学概念如何想象其边缘并使不稳定的郊区郊区的性轮廓变得不稳定。
