The Critical list of Politics and Sexuality, which was produced in collaboration with Sezgin Boynik and Minna L. Henriksson, is the third edition in the series titled Pizza Lists. This pizza menu deals with the topic of sexual minorities in the light of post-colonial conceptual vocabulary, focusing on social groups that are excluded from hegemonic power structures on more than one group.

Today, the hetero-normative ideology, which that queer-feminist movement has tried to abolish for decades, is supplemented by a homo-normative discourse that reproduces racial, class-based, sexual and ethnic ideals, treating migrant rights and sexual rights as mutually exclusive. The Critical List of politics and Sexuality highlights a series of examples that prove that queer politics cannot be viewed separately from anti-racist, anti-colonial and anti-nationalist struggles.
