摘要

本文探讨了参与者--传统上有明显身体缺陷的科萨族男子--如何在自我定义其男子身份不受缺陷影响时,反而认为自己的社会地位受到了影响。本研究报告的数据来自对 20 名科萨族男性进行的半结构式深入访谈、一次小组访谈和一次文化专家访谈。研究采用解释性现象分析法(IPA)对数据进行了分析。本文将科萨语传统入门仪式视为平等的授予者;因此,参与者的身份并未受到影响,这与关于残疾与男性气质共存的现有研究相反。然而,尽管残障对他们的男子气概身份没有削弱影响,但参与者还是发现了残障对他们身份的影响,以及他们作为男性在社区中寻求维持受人尊敬的社会地位的文化途径。因此,本文将探讨这些文化途径,以及参与者如何与往往伴随其表现而来的健全男性要求进行谈判。

Cultural Pathways to a Respectable Manhood Masculinity for Visibly Physically Disabled Xhosa Men
This article explores how upon self-defining their manhood identities as unimpacted by their impairments, the participants, traditionally initiated Xhosa men with visible physical impairments, instead identified their social status as impacted. The study reports data from in-depth semi-structured interviews with 20 Xhosa men, onegroup interview, and one cultural expert interview. The data was analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). This article identifies Xhosa traditional initiation as a grantor of equality; thus, the participant’s identities remained unimpacted, contrary to existing research about the co-existence of disability and masculinity. However, the lack of the impairment’s diminishing impact on their manhood identities notwithstanding, the participants identified both the impact of impairments on their status, and cultural pathways through which they seek to maintain a respectable social status as men in the communities. This article, therefore, explores these cultural pathways and how the participants negotiate the demands of able-bodied masculinity that often accompany their performance.
