A growing body of studies focuses on sexual harassment and violence in nightlife venues, primarily as it affects adolescent and adult women. In these settings, the boundary between flirtation and unwanted sexual attention easily blurs. This study examines how young women reject such attention. It draws on in-depth interviews with 53 Spanish undergraduates aged 18 to 25 from a Madrid public university. The findings unveil both individual strategies for sexual refusal (e.g., ignoring, distancing, lying) as well as collective strategies (e.g., using friends as mediators or protectors). The interviewed women perceived these actions as emotionally and practically challenging. These results advance the understanding of interactions in situations of collective effervescence, which may be conducive of transgression and sexual violence.
越来越多的研究关注夜生活场所的性骚扰和性暴力,主要是影响青少年和成年女性的性骚扰和性暴力。在这些场所,调情和不受欢迎的性关注之间的界限很容易模糊。本研究探讨了年轻女性如何拒绝这种关注。研究对马德里一所公立大学的 53 名 18-25 岁的西班牙大学生进行了深入访谈。研究结果揭示了性拒绝的个人策略(如忽视、疏远、撒谎)和集体策略(如利用朋友作为调解人或保护人)。受访女性认为这些行为在情感和实践上都具有挑战性。这些结果加深了人们对集体亢奋情况下的互动的理解,这种情况可能会助长越轨行为和性暴力。

The question of whether straight individuals belong in gay bars has long been a topic of debate. But why do straight cisgender women go to gay bars in the first place? Through qualitative semi-structured interviews, I analyze women’s motivations for frequenting gay bars in Canada and the United States. My findings show that straight cisgender women go to gay bars to pursue safety and joy—and that these motivations are complicated by reflections on belonging in a space that was not made for them. Decisions to frequent gay bars were positioned as a better alternative to straight bars which were described as dangerous or boring. More generally, this study offers new insights about group boundaries and safety in nightlife spaces.
异性恋者是否属于同性恋酒吧这个问题长期以来一直是一个争论不休的话题。但为什么异性恋女性会去同性恋酒吧呢?通过半结构式定性访谈,我分析了女性经常光顾加拿大和美国同性恋酒吧的动机。我的研究结果表明,异性恋女性去同性恋酒吧是为了追求安全和快乐,而这些动机又因反思在一个并非为她们而设的空间中的归属感而变得复杂。与被描述为危险或无聊的异性恋酒吧相比,去同性恋酒吧的决定被定位为更好的选择。总体而言,本研究为夜生活场所中的群体界限和安全问题提供了新的见解。

While public and academic discussions on pornography’s effects are often plagued by moralistic claims, research on the self-perceived preferences and effects of pornography has been growing in recent years. Yet, we still do not know enough about the role pornography plays in the lives of regular viewers, particularly LGBTQ+ individuals. In this study, we examine the perceptions and views of 87 regular pornography viewers who identified as non-heterosexual, non-cis-gendered, or both (these 87 were part of a larger sample of 302 regular pornography viewers). Our study joins a growing body of work that explores the views, experiences, and preferences of individuals who consume pornography. We found that pornography played a crucial role for LGBTQ+ individuals, helping them to form their gender and sexual identities, serving as a practical guide for the technical aspects of engaging in non-heterosexual sex, and normalizing non-heterosexual orientations, acts, and identities.
尽管公众和学术界对色情制品影响的讨论经常被道德主义的主张所困扰,但近年来对色情制品的自我认知偏好和影响的研究却在不断增加。然而,我们对色情制品在普通观众(尤其是 LGBTQ+ 人士)生活中扮演的角色仍然不够了解。在本研究中,我们研究了 87 名经常观看色情作品的人的看法和观点,他们被认定为非异性恋者、非同性性别者或两者皆是(这 87 人是 302 名经常观看色情作品的更大样本的一部分)。我们的研究与越来越多的研究一起,探讨了消费色情制品的个人的观点、经历和偏好。我们发现,色情作品对 LGBTQ+ 个人起着至关重要的作用,帮助他们形成自己的性别和性身份,为非异性恋性行为的技术方面提供实用指南,并使非异性恋取向、行为和身份正常化。

Queer, polyamorous folk are redefining kinship in the US but BIPOC’s perspectives are absent. Due to metaphorical captivity, exclusion from traditional kinship, and intersectional oppression, queer African Americans’ polyamory entails liberation. A queer of color critique framework was applied to analyze social media content of polyamorous, Black American, queer, femme and non-binary interlocuters. We (a) provide historical, sociopolitical context, (b) center interlocuters’ experiential knowledge of polyamory spaces, and (c) describe their strategies for navigating themselves, relationships, and communities. Their strategies provide a survival guide for oppression and path towards liberation.
在美国,同性恋、多配偶者正在重新定义亲缘关系,但非裔美国人的视角却缺席了。由于隐喻性的囚禁、传统亲缘关系的排斥以及交叉压迫,非洲裔美国人的同性恋多角恋意味着解放。我们运用 "有色人种同性恋批判框架 "分析了多配偶、美国黑人、同性恋、女性和非二元对话者的社交媒体内容。我们(a)提供历史和社会政治背景,(b)以对话者对多配偶空间的经验知识为中心,(c)描述他们驾驭自身、关系和社区的策略。他们的策略为压迫和解放提供了生存指南。

Drawing on interviews with 17 K-pop fans from Australia and the Philippines who identity as LGBTQ+, this article explores and theorizes the role of K-pop fandom in the production of knowledge concerning gender and sexuality. Through an analytical approach sensitive to the affective discourse produced by fans, this article establishes that K-pop fandom operates as a queer space which normalizes queer sexuality and gendered performance through the production of feelings of security, attraction, and relief. Further, analysis of the LGBTQ + fans’ discourse uncovers that the androgynous gendered performances of K-pop idols facilitate fans’ queering of heteropatriarchal and heteronormative ideologies.
本文通过对来自澳大利亚和菲律宾的 17 名 LGBTQ+ K-pop 歌迷的访谈,探讨了 K-pop 粉丝在性别和性知识生产中的作用,并将其理论化。通过对歌迷产生的情感话语进行分析,本文确定了 K-pop 粉丝团作为一个同性恋空间,通过产生安全感、吸引力和解脱感,将同性恋性行为和性别表现正常化。此外,对 LGBTQ + 粉丝话语的分析发现,K-pop 偶像的雌雄同体性别表演促进了粉丝对异性恋和异性恋规范意识形态的阙如。

This paper explores the work of regional NGO organisations in the UK that explicitly support LGBTQ + asylum claimants, framing the testimonials of both service providers and service users, in considering issues of co-presence, and imagined equality, that may be experienced between the parties. While framing the cultural and political environment at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, and critiquing citizenship as a purely hegemonic nationalistic concept by drawing from theories of “intimate citizenship” and “Care-tizenship”, this paper considers the dynamics of collective advocacy. Offering an intersectional approach that frames issues of sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, religion and regionality, the authors consider the significance of co-presence related to citizenship, that affords an optimistic sense of equality when LGBTQ + service providers support LGBTQ + asylum claimants.
本文探讨了英国明确支持 LGBTQ + 申请庇护者的地区性非政府组织的工作,将服务提供者和服务使用者的证词纳入框架,考虑双方可能经历的共同存在和想象中的平等问题。本文通过 "亲密公民身份 "和 "关爱公民身份 "的理论,分析了 COVID-19 大流行时的文化和政治环境,并批判了公民身份这一纯粹的霸权民族主义概念,同时考虑了集体倡导的动力。作者提供了一种交叉方法,将性、性别、种族、民族、宗教和地区性等问题纳入框架,考虑了与公民身份相关的共同存在的意义,当 LGBTQ + 服务提供者支持 LGBTQ + 庇护申请者时,这种共同存在提供了一种乐观的平等感。

Still here, still queer? Queer lives and subjectivities in dementia care 仍在这里,仍是同性恋?痴呆症护理中的同性恋生活和主体性

This article explores possibilities for the emergence of queer lives and queer subjectivities in dementia care, the meaning of being queer for people living in residential dementia care and how they relate to queer subjectivity. Our study, drawing on qualitative interviews with four people living in dementia care homes, show how being queer was associated with earlier phases of one’s life course and youthful, sexually active bodies. The dementia care home was described as a depersonalized, desexualized and segregated spatial condition where queer subjectivities could not emerge. However, although participants rarely became recognizable and intelligible as queer in the care context their positionalities must be understood in more complex terms than visible/invisible. Instead people in dementia care sometimes engaged in queer opacity as a tactic to refuse visibility in a care context characterized by surveillance and lack of control and agency.
本文探讨了在痴呆症护理机构中出现同性恋生活和同性恋主体性的可能性、同性恋对于居住在痴呆症护理机构中的人的意义,以及他们与同性恋主体性之间的关系。我们的研究通过对四位居住在老年痴呆症护理院的人进行定性访谈,显示了同性恋是如何与一个人生命历程的早期阶段以及年轻、性活跃的身体联系在一起的。痴呆症护理院被描述为一个非人格化、非性化和隔离的空间环境,在这里无法出现同性恋主体性。然而,尽管在护理环境中,参与者很少能被识别和理解为同性恋者,但他们的地位必须从比可见/不可见更复杂的角度来理解。相反,痴呆症护理中的人有时会以同性恋不透明作为一种策略,在以监视、缺乏控制和代理权为特征的护理环境中拒绝可见性。

Interactive sex toys shape how we understand sexual intimacies and pleasures on an individual and societal scale. Yet analytical and critical research on actual devices is scant. To help address this, we conducted an in-depth Feminist Content Analysis of interactive products offered by one Dutch manufacturer, including text and video material that discusses and presents those products. Applying the theoretical lens of technosexual scripts, we show how one of the largest industry stakeholders engages in promising a utopian sex-future, while upholding and re-inscribing normative scripts for how sexual encounters with others and oneself can be technologically mediated. Our analysis illustrates the far-reaching consequences of skewed (and unkept) promises of safety, health and optimization, which implicates technologists as well as marketing strategists.
交互式性玩具影响着我们对个人和社会范围内性亲密和性快感的理解。然而,针对实际设备的分析性和批判性研究却很少。为了解决这个问题,我们对一家荷兰制造商提供的互动产品进行了深入的女性主义内容分析,包括讨论和介绍这些产品的文字和视频资料。运用技术性脚本的理论视角,我们展示了该行业最大的利益相关者之一是如何承诺一个乌托邦式的性未来,同时坚持并重新灌输规范性脚本,即如何通过技术媒介与他人和自己发生性关系。我们的分析表明了安全、健康和优化承诺的偏差(和不兑现)所带来的深远影响,这牵涉到技术专家和营销战略家。

Lingering longer: Performance, queer of color joy, and Baltimore’s VERSION 徘徊更久:表演、有色人种同性恋欢乐和巴尔的摩的 VERSION

This essay moves through the nuances and complications of queer of color joy’s potentiality. Mobilized through performance, queer of color joy is theorized as containing possibilities “to explore the limits of human curiosity; renegotiate what relationships can look, feel, sound, and smell like; and use desire to propel us through the social world where we refuse colonial futures and expand decolonial options” (Tristano, 2022: 279). Through a performance ethnography of VERSION, a dance party for queer and trans people of color which takes place monthly in Baltimore, MD, USA, I detail how queer of color joy circulates through complex modes of power. I move to theorize queer of color joy further by exploring how queer of color joy lingers. Gesturing towards after the party (Chambers-Letson, 2018), I detail how queer of color joy is performed outside of VERSION; after 2:00 a.m., on the sidewalk, and through clouds of smoke. Lingering, I argue, further animates queer of color joy’s radical potential through queer relationality to nourish queer and trans of color lifeworlds.
这篇文章探讨了有色人种同性恋欢乐潜能的细微差别和复杂性。通过表演,有色人种同性恋者的欢乐被理论化为蕴含着 "探索人类好奇心极限的可能性;重新协商人际关系的外观、感觉、声音和气味;以及利用欲望推动我们穿越社会世界,在那里我们拒绝殖民未来,扩大非殖民化选择 "的可能性(Tristano, 2022: 279)。VERSION 是每月在美国马里兰州巴尔的摩市举行的有色人种同性恋和变性人舞蹈派对,通过对 VERSION 的行为民族志研究,我详细阐述了有色人种同性恋的快乐是如何通过复杂的权力模式循环的。通过探讨有色人种同性恋者的欢乐如何挥之不去,我进一步将有色人种同性恋者的欢乐理论化。以 "派对之后"(Chambers-Letson,2018 年)为例,我详细介绍了 "VERSION "之外、凌晨两点之后、人行道上以及烟雾缭绕中的 "有色人种欢乐 "是如何上演的。我认为,"逗留 "进一步激发了有色人种同性恋欢乐的激进潜力,通过同性恋关系滋养了有色人种同性恋和变性人的生活世界。

Gesturing towards after the party (Chambers-Letson, 2018), I detail how queer of color joy is performed outside of VERSION; after 2:00 a.m., on the sidewalk, and through clouds of smoke. Lingering, I argue, further animates queer of color joy’s radical potential through queer relationality to nourish queer and trans of color lifeworlds.","PeriodicalId":51454,"journal":{"name":"Sexualities","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141885397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The intricate interplay between media representation and experiences of minority groups in Southeast Asia necessitates a comprehensive analysis of popular culture’s impact on marginalized communities. This mixed-method study investigates the portrayal of homosexual male characters in contemporary Thai Boy’s Love (BL) series and its connection to the authentic experiences of gay men in Bangkok. Through interviews with the casting team and producers of a prominent BL series, the research aims to elucidate the creative process underpinning these portrayals. The study further examines the perceptions and identity development of gay men as depicted in BL narratives, and how heterosexual women viewers interpret this representation. A questionnaire involving 330 participants of diverse orientations indicates that 78.6% of gay men consider BL narratives to be misrepresentative, while 69% of heterosexual women perceive them as accurate, raising concerns about the influence of media representations on identity formation within the gay community. Moreover, the marked disparities in beliefs regarding whether gay individuals aspire to the appearance portrayed by BL characters (with 98.3% of heterosexuals, 60% of bisexuals, and 100% of lesbians concurring, in contrast to 71.8% of gay respondents dissenting) emphasize the significance of diverse and accurate representation in shaping identities and self-perception.
在东南亚,媒体的表现形式与少数群体的经历之间存在着错综复杂的相互作用,因此有必要对流行文化对边缘化群体的影响进行全面分析。本混合方法研究调查了当代泰国《男儿本色》(BL)系列中对同性恋男性角色的描绘及其与曼谷男同性恋真实经历之间的联系。通过对一部著名的《BL》系列剧的选角团队和制片人进行访谈,本研究旨在阐明这些描绘所依据的创作过程。研究进一步探讨了《基本法》叙事中描述的男同性恋者的看法和身份发展,以及异性恋女性观众如何解读这种表现形式。一份有 330 名不同倾向的参与者参与的调查问卷显示,78.6% 的男同性恋者认为《基本法》叙事歪曲事实,而 69% 的异性恋女性则认为《基本法》叙事准确无误,这引起了人们对媒体表述对同性恋群体身份形成的影响的关注。此外,对于同性恋者是否向往基本法人物所描绘的外表,他们的看法存在明显差异(98.3%的异性恋者、60%的双性恋者和 100%的女同性恋者表示赞同,而 71.8%的同性恋受访者表示反对),这突出表明了多样化和准确的表述对于塑造身份和自我认知的重要意义。
