Este artículo explora el encanto queer como un camino valioso hacia una mayor intimidad con mundos de vitalidad humanos y más que humanos enredados, tan amenazados en este momento. Al panorama de la investigación contemporánea sobre el encantamiento, aunque rico y vasto, le falta una teorización queer y un tejido con una experiencia vivida queer. Si bien el activismo por el placer necesita centrarse en el placer de los más marginados de nuestras sociedades, algunas investigaciones contemporáneas perpetúan modos de pensamiento binarios coloniales dañinos a lo largo de líneas cis-heteropatriarcales, que sirven para excluir y reproducir organizaciones jerárquicas de mundos. A través de una metodología de participación en la investigación decolonial, este proceso colaborativo centra las historias de doce participantes que se identifican como queer en el Reino Unido e Irlanda, buscando fundamentar la exploración teórica en mundos empíricos reales. Centrándose en una variedad de voces, este artículo busca abordar definiciones excluyentes y co-crear formulaciones que amplifiquen el potencial más significativo del encanto queer: en sus multitudes fundamentales de diferencias, su práctica de la humildad y la fluidez en lo desconocido y la ruptura de normas destructivas, al servicio de cultivar nuevas formas de vivir juntos en tiempos de múltiples crisis que se cruzan.
