Abstract
People inhabit many temporalities. There is a “somatic time” (Danon 2018) framed by bodily develop�ment and by elective surgical and pharmaceutical technologies; we live, we are changed, we die. There are also the social times of shared
contexts, often flattened when understood as a singular history. Beyond these, some understand their own biography as containing such a weighty caesura that with hindsight there is the time before, and the different time beyond.
Coming out, for example, is a fulcrum of many gay, lesbian, and queer narratives, and people date a new life and identity back to that moment (Gorman-Murray 2008;
Lewis 2012; Saxey 2008.
