摘要

南非宪法禁止基于性取向对个人的歧视,然而女同性恋者在不同背景下的经历是不同的。对来自农村地区的女同性恋学生进行了10次深入的定性访谈,对这一问题进行了专题分析,扩大了对这一问题有限的认识基础。虽然这些学生是在城市地区学习,但这篇文章在同性恋的主流话语中探讨了农村地区女同性恋者的经历。调查结果显示,由于某些宗教和传统信仰,女同性恋仍然被许多人视为“只是一件事”,不自然的,一个短暂的阶段,一种尴尬和罪恶。这些普遍存在的结构常常阻碍女同性恋青年做自己,从而迫使她们在农村和城市背景之间管理多重身份。社会工作者和其他人权倡导者应该通过他们的研究和实践,旨在让社区意识到促进农村地区LGBTQI人群的肯定、安全和支持的人权话语。关键词:女同性恋,农村,城市,文化,宗教

“INTO NJE – IT’S JUST A THING…”: BEING A LESBIAN IN A RURAL AREA
The South African Constitution prohibits discrimination against individuals on the basis of their sexual orientation, yet the experiences of lesbians across various contexts is different. A thematic analysis of 10 in-depth qualitative interviews with lesbian students from rural areas expands the limited knowledge base on this issue. Although these students are studying in an urban area, this article explores the experience of lesbians in rural areas in the light of the prevailing discourses on homosexuality. The findings revealed that due to certain religious and traditional beliefs, lesbianism continues to be perceived by many, for example, as “just a thing”, unnatural, a passing phase, an embarrassment and a sin. These prevailing constructions often deterred lesbian youths from being themselves, thus forcing them to manage multiple identities between rural and urban contexts. Social workers as well as other human rights advocates should, through their research and practice, aim to make communities aware of human rights discourses that promote affirmation, safety and support for the LGBTQI population in rural areas. Keywords: lesbian, rural, urban, culture, religion
