South Africa’s progressive Constitution remains at the forefront of legislation within the African continent, which emphasise inclusion, freedom and societal acceptance. This social advancement led to the adoption of the Civil Union Act in 2006. This made South Africa one of the first countries to recognise same-sex marriage as well as to bar discrimination based on sexual orientation. Although the Act expresses ideals which strive for human dignity and respect, incidences of hate crimes and discrimination towards members of the LGBTI community still occur. Sexual orientation continues to be considered a taboo subject, which is often fueled by unsettling stereotypes that justify discrimination against sexual minority groups. Black gay men are a minority based on their race and sexual orientation, this study analyses how they perceive gender and masculinity in particular. The research questions analyse the role of socialisation and other social institutions in shaping ideas pertaining to masculinity through the life-stages of the participants beginning from boyhood until young adulthood. Masculinity is analysed using contextual tools – which describe sexuality and gender within the South African context, and conceptual tools – which provide theoretical explanations relating to masculinity and sexuality. Masculinity will be explored as a dynamic and contextual social construct, which is learned and performed according to one’s personal experiences and upbringing. Qualitative research methods were utilised in the form of focus group discussions and supplemented through semistructured interviews for detailed narratives on the experiences of the participants. The research findings reveal the important role, which primary socialisation agents possess in shaping an individual’s understanding of gender and sexuality. The image of a “good black man” remains entrenched in heteronormative ideals, which reinforce homophobic, religious and conservative views. South Africa may have a liberal Constitution but the reality of “coming out” is not without its challenges.Mini Dissertation (MSocSci)--University of Pretoria, 2017.

This thesis provides a new direction to studies of “gay masculinity”, examining the impact a consumerist approach has had on the two bestselling “gay” lifestyle(s) magazines between 1991 and 2011: 'Attitude' and 'GT' (previously known as 'Gay Times'). In both magazines over the period covered, the desire for a “successful” identity as understood through neo-liberal discourse is demonstrated through textual analysis of the aspirational discourse and images (re)presented in both publications, specifically assessing the importance placed on signifiers of consumerism and celebrity role models. In selecting the most-read lifestyle(s) magazines in Britain over the period under study, I was able to understand how mainstream forms of “gay masculine” identity had increasingly been underpinned by discourse pertaining to consumerism as opposed to campaigns against perceived homophobia and inequality. In arguing that a neo-liberal binary of “success” and “failure” has become increasingly prevalent since 1991, with signifiers (re)constructing the former as aspirational, this thesis also notes that 'Attitude' and 'Gay Times' have remained uniquely directed at an explicitly “gay” audience, with emphasis being placed on homonormative forms of “success” being an easily attainable norm.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
La presente memoria es el resultado de una investigación de corte etnográfico sobre los osos, un
grupo de varones gais que celebran los cuerpos gruesos, peludos y que superan la media de edad
que predomina en las representaciones gais. Son nombrados en numerosas ocasiones como un
ejemplo de diversidad que amplía las representaciones del sujeto gay pero que, sin embargo,
plantea también serios dilemas (políticos) respecto al modelo de masculinidad que propone. ¿Son
los osos una subcultura o un movimiento político que pone en jaque el heterosexismo imperante?
Responder a una pregunta como esta requiere de una aproximación más empírica que meramente
discursiva; sin embargo no existen trabajos de corte etnográfico en nuestro territorio.
Aprovechando este vacío, la investigación que sustenta esta memoria pone el foco en diferentes
ámbitos experienciales a propósito del estilo bear.
Lejos de ser una categoría identitaria que se encarna en las subjetividades con la misma fuerza
con la que lo hacen el género o la sexualidad, el oso vehicula quienes son –o qué buscan– en
contextos de ocio gay. Por ello, «Hombres de carne y pelo» aborda a los osos como un estilo
corporal cuya dimensión simbólica entreteje una relación de significados eficaces en torno al
cuerpo. Viste de autenticidad, tolerancia, naturalidad y masculinidad los excesos de arrugas, carne
y pelo y produce al mismo tiempo una suerte de valor diferencial que permite erotizar cuerpos
vergonzantes, invisibilizados y/o rechazados por los modelos de representación gais dominantes.
El estilo bear abre a su paso espacios de encuentro donde la práctica social no sólo se rige por las
prohibiciones externas y la necesidad de protegerse frente a un entorno hostil desde una mirada
heterosexual y gay, sino también por las posibilidades que ofrece. La seducción, la sexualización
y la distensión de responsabilidad cotidianas configuran los principales marcos de acción e
interpretación en ellos. Del mismo modo, producciones culturales y medios de difusión y
comunicación contribuyen a afianzar la existencia del oso tanto como a fijar y distribuir su capital
erótico de forma desigual, generando con ello jerarquías al interior del grupo. El contraste entre
las reacciones e interpretaciones que provoca el estilo de los osos y las prácticas que acontecen
en los espacios que disponen, dificulta la formulación de una respuesta contundente respecto a la
subversión o reproducción del heteroseximo por parte de ellos. La práctica social que se desarrolla
en los locales bascula entre registros de adecuación intermitentes y polivalentes: simultáneamente
buscan la complicidad entre sus miembros por medio de registros de adecuación feminizados y
la distinción respecto a los mismos mediante códigos de virilidad.
Esta memoria concluye que los osos tratan de agrandar el marco de ocio y consumo gay a otros
cuerpos y otros consumidores, que reclaman también «el derecho» a ser deseables. Configuran el
estilo desde el poder otorgado al erotismo al tiempo que se oponen a la mirada heterocentrada que
mantiene vinculadas la identidad de género y la orientación sexoafectiva. Sin embargo, su
propuesta grupal no cuestiona de forma vertebral y explícita al heterosexismo; un aspecto, este
último, que puede ser tan ignorado como defendido en el interior de sus filas.The following dissertation arises from an ethnographic research on bear gay men, a group of males who celebrate thicker, hairier and more mature bodies than the average image in gay representations. Bears are often mentioned as an example of diversity that broadens representations of gay men but, nevertheless, their model of masculinity also poses serious (political) dilemmas. Are bears either a political movement or a subculture that challenges the prevailing heterosexism? Answering that kind of question requires an empirical approach to bears. However, no empirical research has been conducted neither in Spain nor in Catalonia thus far. This research aims to fill this empirical gap by addressing different experiential spheres within the social life of bears. Far from being an identity category embodied in subjectivities as markedly as gender or sexuality, bears work out who they are and what they want inside the context of gay leisrue and consumption. «Men of flesh and hair» tackles bears as a body style that links many positive and effective meanings across the body. It imprints meanings such as authenticity, tolerance, ease and masculinity on excesses of body weight, body hair and wrinkles. At the same time, it produces a sort of differential value which allows for eroticizing bodies that are otherwise perceived as embarrassing and that are either absent or rejected in the dominant models of gay representation. e desirable from bear’s perspective. The bear style arranges meeting and socializing spaces where social action is not just ruled by external prohibitions and the need to protect itself against a hostile environment from heterosexual and other’s gays perspectives, but also by the possibilities that it offers. Thus, seduction, sexualization and the relaxation from daily responsibilities shape the main frameworks of both social action and interpretation within it. Similarly, cultural productions and media contribute to strengthen bear existence as well as to fix and distribute its erotic capital in uneven ways, generating hierarchies within the group. The reactions and interpretations regarding the bear style contrast with the social practices that take place in those bear spaces. In the latter, social action unfolds among intermittent and versatile roles that look both for complicity and distinction, by using either feminine or manly codes. Therefore, it seems difficult to offer a conclusive answer about whether bears reproduce or subvert heterosexism. This dissertation concludes that bear gay men attempt to enlarge the framework of gay leisure and consumption in order to include many other bodies and consumers, claiming for the right to be desirable. Bears build their style upon erotic power, while confronts hetero-centred perspective that links gender identity to sexual and affective orientation. However, their collective proposal does not thoroughly and explicitly question heterosexism: an issue that is as ignore as it is criticized within their ranks.

Masculinity has been widely regarded as a harmful cognition that may lead men to engage in risk behavior. The present study sought to examine the role of hyper masculine cognitions and behaviors on sexual health in a sample of gay and bisexual men. A sample of n=313 gay and bisexual men were sampled from the community. Results indicate significant effects of hyper masculine behaviors and hyper masculine cognitions on sexual health variables. Moreover, engaging in risky sexual situations fully mediated effects of hyper masculine behavior on high-risk sexual behavior. Results are discussed with a focus on ego depletion and hegemonic masculinity.

Literature has offered insight into aspects of traditional masculine gender norms in shaping expectations of soldiers (Arkin & Dobrofsky, 1978; Green et al., 2010; Johnson, 2010; Lorber & Garcia, 2010; Shawver, 1995), yet there has been little consideration of how these norms affect gay identified servicemen. For centuries, military policies have made efforts to restrict gay individuals from serving openly or at all, leading to inquiry about the effectiveness of these individuals as service members and the impact on unit cohesion (Burrelli, 2012; Parco & Levy, 2010; Shawver, 1995; Zellman, 1996). The current study examines the experiences of gay service men and the impact on the expression of their masculine and gay identity while in the military. The researcher explores the definition of masculinity in the military, its role in the expression of gay sexual identity, experiences of and participation in acts of homophobia by self or others, and participants’ perception of the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy repeal, as it relates to their comfort with expressing their gay identity.

Despite the vast research regarding non-conformative bodies, there is little material on the gay bear representation in fashion modelling. This thesis investigates the bear embodiment in the runway shows of Walter Van Beirendonck, respectively W< Autumn/Winter 1995–1996 Paradise Pleasure Productions, W< Autumn/Winter 1996-1997 Wonderland, Walter Van Beirendonck Spring/Summer 2010 Wonder, and Walter Van Beirendonck Spring/Summer 2011 Read My Skin. Critical visual analysis follows the gay bear symbolism in the video recordings of the runways, revealing how it challenges the fashion industry’s body standards and, in a broader frame, the dictates of hegemonic masculinity. The concepts of gender performativity and biopower provide the theoretical frame of the study, while Madison Moore’s theory of ‘fabulousness’ and José Esteban Muñoz’s understanding of ‘utopia’ lead to the articulation of performances both masculine and queer. The findings lead to the discovery of non-dual and body-inclusive gay bear embodiments that challenge the relationship between body and dress and can extends beyond the limits of the runway.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
No Place Like Home: A Cultural History of Gay Domesticity, 1948-1982, explores the development of gay male domestic spaces and their representation in American culture, from the publication of the first Kinsey Report to the AIDS epidemic. Through archival research, and analysis of periodicals, books, and film, it shows that gay men frequently experienced their homes as key sites in the construction of sexual identities, relationships, and communities. Social scientists, journalists, and filmmakers of the 1950s and 60s typically depicted gay men as outsiders, if not threats, to the ideal heterosexual household, either anti-domestic (lonely figures who lurked city streets, bathrooms, and bars in search of a one-night stand), or hyper-domestic (prissy interior decorators whose work alienated "real" men from their homes). Such images, however, overlooked the actual range of social and political possibilities gay men found in the supposed privacy of apartments and houses. No Place Like Home uncovers these domestic performances in order to reconsider the evolution of gay culture and domesticity in the postwar period. Each chapter advances chronologically while tracing the lineage of five tropes of gay male home-making: (1) the interior decorator; (2) homosexual marriage; (3) camp humor and cooking; (4) communes; and (5) vacation homes. In practice and representation, domesticity provided a stage for gay men and their observers to negotiate social anxieties around masculinity and sexuality, and debate conventional conceptions of home and family.

Titman, Nathan Bryan. „The drift of desire: performing gay masculinities through leisure, mobility, and non-urban space, 1910-1945“. Diss., University of Iowa, 2014. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/1407.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This dissertation describes practices among men who desired men from 1910 to 1945 that combined mobility, eroticized leisure practices, and non-urban spaces in cultivating nascent sexual subcultures. It contains four case studies that detail how vacillations between "productive" labor and recurrent "drifting" allowed men to simultaneously perform normative gender identities while conveying their sense of sexual difference with respect to white bourgeois manhood. Each case study explores institutional linkages between mobility and stigmatized male sexualities, and analyzes autobiographies, correspondence, visual culture, and fictional works in which men who desired other men imagined their ambivalent relationships to labor as a means of expressing their discomfort with the sexual and gender constraints of modern commercial centers. This study suggests that the eroticization of laboring male bodies and "natural" leisure spaces were vital in cultivating subcultures based on non-heterosexual desire. Moreover, while the historiography of male homosexuality prior to World War II has largely focused on urban experience, this discussion illuminates a decidedly anti-modern bristling against city life and commercialism that also motivated the movements of men who desired men in this period.
The first two chapters trace the development of queer "tramp" identities. By the 1920s, socioeconomic changes and American folklore perpetuated tramp nostalgia in which writers portrayed wandering homeless men as romantic dreamers wary of marital confinement, rather than economically marginalized laborers. Analyses of sociological records involving working-class gay men in Chicago and the career of tennis champion Bill Tilden demonstrate that this tramp epistemology enabled white men to cultivate non-heterosexual identities through their desires for mobility and their challenges to prevailing distinctions between work and pleasure. The final two chapters describe the queer spatial and temporal potential of non-urban spaces (specifically waterways and beaches) among artists and working-class men. In fantasies contained in paintings and archived correspondence, sailors embodied mobility, erotic "masculine" physicality, and sentimentalized vulnerability. At the same time, artists and writers saw in their tourist practices the potential to attain queer intimacies. Their depictions of beach leisure allowed them to mobilize fantasies of same-sex relationalities that evaded both the capitalist privileging of "masculine" productivity and modern sexual categorizations.

The purpose of this grounded theory study was to develop an understanding of the role that masculinity has in identity development among self-identified Gay/Queer (GQ) collegiate men. The goal of this study was to develop a theory that explains how traditional college-age GQ men view masculinity within the context of their performance as men on a college campus. 16 college-aged GQ men attending a four-year, private liberal arts institution in the southeastern United States were the subjects in this study. The participants consisted of: two first year students, three sophomores, two juniors, eights seniors, and one individual that who had graduated from college six weeks prior to his interview. Individuals that identified as woman, or transgender students were not included in this study.
Four themes were identified from the study: Creating Identity & Exploring Sexuality; Reliance of Stereotypes; Performance & Presence; and Community Expectations & Acceptance. The overarching concept that emerged from the study was that whatever qualities the participant found to be personally attracted were the same traits that he found to be the most masculine. Limitations and recommendations for the study were also provided.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
The fundamental questions this project aims to answer are 1) how the alt-right engages in storying the sexual, specifically the “homosexual” character 2) the ways that broadly circulating ideas about masculinity shape movement boundary work processes, and 3) the work that this storying is doing for the alt-right in the context of American white patriarchy. Broadly, two characters were storied on r/altright: The Degenerate and the Substandard Ally. First, the Degenerate is a pedophile, a diseased sexual hedonist, and a Jewish-led weapon set on destroying the white race. The image of the Degenerate is produced through the mobilization of anti-Semitic tropes, conservative Christian doctrine, and (pseudo)scientific rhetoric. This narrative presents homosexuality as a contagious risk to all people. The second character, the Substandard Ally, is constructed as a foil to the Degenerate. The Substandard Ally can be a member of the movement because they have no control over their sexuality and are adequately masculine. The strategies used to justify the Substandard Ally’s inclusion in the alt-right are to deploy the (il)logic of the closet and redraw the line between good/bad sex. I argue that the sexual storying of the alt-right ultimately functions to maintain white patriarchy by reinforcing the sexual value system, obscuring the workings of patriarchy by presenting a hybrid hegemonic masculinity, reconceptualizing the “good” sexual citizen, and deploying homonationalist discourses.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This project looks at the ways in which masculine identities are constructed and perceived in secondary schools. It identifies some of the links between broader gender politics and the more specific area of masculinities as they apply to the lives of gay-identified and non-identified secondary school students. Through focussed discussion with groups of students the research describes types of behaviours that are characterised by students as desirable or undesirable and the perceived relationship of such behaviours with particular sexualities. In this thesis I interrogate the treatment (including bullying, harassment and lack of acknowledgment of the gay experience), in schools, of boys who express gender unorthodoxy/non-hegemonic masculinities. In order to understand this behaviour I look at the means of control of such expressions as exercised by other students and teachers and explore the motivation behind this control. Through listening to the stories of students I identify the need to evaluate school policy and pedagogical practices with a view to making the educational experience more inclusive of a broad range of masculinities and sexualities and therefore a more relevant, positive and productive one.

In this qualitative study, gay and straight men's experiences in male friendships were examined in order to explore differences and similarities between the participants' construction of masculinities. A social constructionist approach to understanding human experience was utilised, through an examination of in-depth interviews with 21 men (10 straight, 11 gay). The data was interpreted following a hermeneutic phenomenological approach, utilising the lens of Gestalt therapy theory, resulting in a series of essence statements, which expressed the underlying structures of the participants' experiences of masculinity. These findings revealed constructions of masculinities which were explored in relation to the participants' close male friendships and support seeking processes. A major finding was the importance of shame as a regulating variable in the gay and straight participants' construction of their masculinity. Shame or avoidance of shame appeared to be linked to the influence of a dominant heterosexual masculine ideology. It was revealed that whilst dominant masculine ideologies were experienced as powerful 'background' beliefs, the participants were able to construct contemporaneous masculinities that were contextual and field sensitive. Thus the concept of masculinities appears inherently fluid, and changeable. Furthermore, the results indicated different definitions of friendship which appeared to be related to different constructions of masculinity. The gay participants' friendships were described in interpersonal terms compared with the straight participants' friendships which appeared more focussed on external activities. The experience of shame, or fear of the potential for shame emerged as important variables that influenced intimacy, closeness and distance in gay and straight participants' friendships and their ability to seek and receive emotional social support. The finding that men appear to seek help from male friends in ways that are consistent with their constructions of masculinity has important implications for fostering supportive interactions between men. Furthermore, an understanding of men's experiences regarding what constitutes a supportive interaction and defines intimacy appears important as these views will most likely guide their decision making processes about from whom and how they might seek support. Finally, the possibilities for constructing new masculinities are explored as men's friendships and support behaviour are both influenced by, and in turn influence, the construction of masculinities.

Rose... assim era denominada a primeira revista gay editada no Brasil entre fins da década de 1970 e princípios de 1980. Em suas páginas eram publicadas informações do cenário artístico-cultural da época, contos eróticos, estórias em quadrinho, cartuns, anúncios de homens interessados em corresponder-se com outros homens, artigos que versavam sobre a homossexualidade masculina. Nessas páginas havia, também, uma profusão de corpos masculinos tendendo a nudez. Entretanto, nos limites dessa dissertação a revista Rose, não foi considerada apenas como veículo de comunicação e entretenimento, mas, antes disso, tomada como fonte histórica. Enquanto portadora de um conjunto de pedagogias do gênero e da sexualidade, a revista está implicada na produção de um modelo de masculinidade homossexual normalizada. A partir do referencial teórico dos Estudos de Gênero, desde uma perspectiva feminista e pós-estruturalista, analiso o enunciado que articula a masculinidade homossexual a comportamentos efeminados. E é a abjeção a tais comportamentos que servirá de base para a construção do homem gay discreto, marcadamente masculinizado. Portanto, a discrição – enquanto signo de masculinidade – parece assegurar a inteligibilidade social desses homens, “autorizando” sua própria existência. De qualquer maneira, a revista não deve ser reduzida a problemática aqui desenvolvida, uma vez que nela estão presentes outros enunciados.Rose... so it was named the first gay magazine edited in Brazil between late 1970s and early 1980s. On its pages, information about the cultural-artistic scene of that time, erotic stories, stories in comics, cartoons, advertisements of men interested in corresponding with other men, and articles that dealt with male homosexuality were published. On those pages there was also a profusion of male bodies tending to nudity. However, within the bounds of this dissertation, Rose magazine has not been considered only as a vehicle of communication and entertainment, above all, it has been taken as a historical source. As a carrier of a set of pedagogies of gender and sexuality, the magazine is involved in producing a normalized model of homosexual masculinity. Based on the theoretical referential of Gender Studies from a feminist and post-structuralist perspective, it was analyzed the “enunciation” that articulates the homosexual masculinity to feminine behaviors. It is the degradation of such behaviors that will serve as the basis for the construction of a discrete gay man, with a distinct male-like behavior. Therefore, discretion – as a sign of masculinity – seems to ensure the social intelligence of those men, "authorizing" their own existence. However, the magazine should not be reduced to the problematic here developed, since there are other issues presented in it.

Thesis advisor: James R. MahalikMost stage models of gay identity development posit that gay men follow a distinct hierarchical blueprint wherein internal identity processes (e.g. dismantling internalized homonegativity) co-occur with increasing disclosure of their sexual orientation to others (i.e. greater outness). However, some scholars contend that linear stage models lack flexibility and do not account for the diversity of gay men's experience (Fassinger & Miller, 1996). Specifically, gay men's internal and public identity processes may advance by way of distinct, unparallel pathways and for that reason should be evaluated in conjunction and independently of one another. Extending Meyer's (1995; 2003) minority stress model, this study examined the role of childhood gender behavior, adult masculinity, social support and socioeconomic status in explaining gay men's identity status and degree of outness. Five hundred eighteen gay men recruited from online sources (e.g. listservs, Usenet groups) completed measures assessing stigma, anti-gay attack, recalled childhood gender behavior, masculinity, social support, and socioeconomic status. Hierarchical and logistic regression analyses supported several hypotheses reflected in the findings that stigma, anti-gay attack, masculinity, and social support were significantly associated with gay men's identity status and outness. In addition, socioeconomic status moderated the relationship between masculinity and outness, as well as between minority stress (anti-gay attack) and identity status. Altogether, each of the factors examined in this study appear to play a unique role in explaining gay men's identity development and outness, underscoring the complexity of the social context that may intensify or alleviate the stress of these processes. The theoretical implications, future research, limitations, and recommendations for counselors are discussed

Els homes que tenen sexe amb homes (HSH) són la població més afectada per la infecció del VIH/sida i altres infeccions de transmissió sexual (ITS) en la majoria dels països europeus, inclosa Espanya. Entre les diferents ofertes que utilitzen els HSH per al contacte sexual estan les saunes. L'objectiu d’aquesta tesi va ser analitzar, des de la perspectiva de les masculinitats, el procés de salut (sexualitat), malaltia (VIH i altres ITS) i atenció (prevenció) en diferents usuaris de saunes gai de Barcelona.
La tesi es presenta mitjançant la compilació de tres articles. El primer, és un estudi qualitatiu realitzat amb HSH, procedents d'una cohort seronegativa al VIH, que havien estat contactats en saunes gai. El segon, és una revisió sistemàtica sobre les masculinitats i el VIH. El tercer, és un treball de camp, realitzat entre el 2012-2016, centrat exclusivament amb treballadors sexuals masculins que oferien els seus serveis sexuals en una sauna gai.
Els principals resultats van ser congruents i suggereixen que l'hegemonia masculina relacionada amb respondre al risc i demostrar proeses sexuals és una construcció social que no és exclusiva del món heterosexual. Les pràctiques socials i sexuals dels HSH conflueixen entre l'hegemonia i la transgressió al visibilitzar formes alternatives d'identitats masculines. No obstant això, existeix escassa recerca en aquesta matèria a nivell mundial. Entre els HSH no tots gaudeixen del mateix estatus, factors com la immigració, el nivell socioeconòmic, l'orientació sexual, l'homofòbia interioritzada i l'edat estableixen diferents relacions amb el risc, la percepció del VIH i la salut. Entre les estratègies de prevenció van destacar realitzar intervencions en llocs de socialització gai, considerar el suport social i els determinants socials. Se suggereix potenciar aquelles polítiques que promoguin l'acceptació a la diversitat sexual i cultural des d'una perspectiva de gènere.Los hombres que tienen sexo con hombres (HSH) son la población más afectada por la infección del VIH/sida y otras infecciones de transmisión sexual (ITS) en la mayoría de los países europeos, incluida España.

Las prácticas sociales y sexuales de los HSH confluyen entre la hegemonía y la trasgresión al visibilizar formas alternativas de identidades masculinas. Sin embargo, existe escasa investigación en esta materia a nivel mundial. Entre los HSH no todos gozan del mismo estatus, factores como la inmigración, el nivel socioeconómico, la orientación sexual, la homofobia interiorizada y la edad establecen diferentes relaciones con el riesgo, la percepción del VIH y la salud. Entre las estrategias de prevención destacaron realizar intervenciones en lugares de socialización gay, considerar el soporte social y los determinantes sociales. Se sugiere potenciar las políticas que promuevan la aceptación a la diversidad sexual y cultural desde una perspectiva de género.
Men who have sex with men (MSM) are the most affected population by HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in most European countries, including Spain. Gay saunas are one of the setting were MSM have sexual contact. The objective of this dissertation was to analyse, from masculinities perspective, the process of health (sexuality), disease (HIV and other STIs) and care (prevention) in different gay saunas users in Barcelona. The dissertation is presented through the compilation of three articles. The first, is a qualitative study of MSM, belonging to a cohort without HIV infection, who had been contacted in gay saunas. The second, is a systematic review, which addressed masculinities and HIV. The third is a fieldwork, conducted between 2012-2016 focused exclusively on male sex workers who offered their sexual services in a gay sauna. The main findings derived from studies are congruent and suggest that male hegemony related to responding to risk and demonstrating sexual prowess is a social construct that is not unique to the heterosexual world. The social and sexual practices of MSM converge between hegemony and transgression by making alternative forms of male identities visible. However, there is scarce research on the subject at the global level. Factors such as immigration, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, internalized homophobia, and age have a different relationship with risk, HIV perception, and health among MSM. Among the prevention strategies, the most important were to implement interventions in places of socialization for gay, to consider social support and social determinants. The policies that promotes the acceptance of sexual and cultural diversity from a gender perspective should be strengthened.

Föreställningar kring maskulinitet och våld är i dagens samhälle nära sammankopplade och har så varit även historiskt. Denna studie har som mål att undersöka hur dessa sammankopplingar påverkar män som tränar och tävlar MMA och hur det påverkar deras maskulinitetskonstruktioner. Genom att undersöka dessa mäns inställning till våld, maskulinitet och intimitet inom MMA, syftar studien till att tydliggöra den diskurs som vuxit fram på en kampsortsklubb i Sverige. Slutsatsen av denna undersökning är att en tillsynes motsägelsefull bild kring våld och intimitet konstruerats inom denna diskurs. Inom MMA-diskursen finns utrymme för fysisk intimitet på ett sätt som sällan accepteras mellan män i samhället utanför. Samtidigt kan inställningen till våld förklaras genom att utövarna skiljer våldsamma handlingar från aggressivitet och därför inte ser utövandet som våld.Concepts about masculinity and violence are closely connected in today´s society, and have been so historically as well. The purpose of this essay is to study how these connections influence men who practice and compete in MMA and how this affects their construction of masculinities. By the study of these men’s attitudes towards violence, masculinity and intimacy within MMA, this study aims to clarify the discourse that has developed in a martial arts club in Sweden. The conclusion of this study is that a seemingly contradictory image of violence and intimacy is produced in this discourse. Inside the MMA discourse there is room for physical intimacy between men in a way that is rarely accepted in society at large. At the same time their attitudes towards violence can be explained by the fact that the practitioners separate violent actions from aggression and therefor do not view these actions as violence.

Forskning har visat att människor kan avgöra andras sexuella läggning utifrån ansiktsbilder och att homosexuella män uppfattas mer feminina än heterosexuella män och vise versa hos kvinnor. Denna studie undersökte om det går att förutsäga framtida sexuella läggning på barn och om dessa skiljer sig i egenskapsskattningar beroende på uppfattad sexuell läggning. Detta gjordes genom att använda bilder på heterosexuella och homosexuella personer från när de var 6 och 14 år. Studien använde 162 enkätsvar från blivande socionomer, beteendevetare och förskollärare, varav 133 kvinnor. Resultaten visade inget stöd för att det går att gissa rätt sexuell läggning på barn. Tjejer som uppfattades homosexuella bedömdes mindre feminina än de uppfattade heterosexuella, medan uppfattade homosexuella killar bedömdes snällare än heterosexuella killar. Slutsatser av studien är att femininitet används som ett redskap vid bedömning av sexuell läggning främst hos tjejer, medan hög självsäkerhet ses vara mer framträdande hos heterosexuella tjejer och killar.

Masculine gender role conflict (MGRC) occurs when externally-imposed male gender role expectations have a negative impact on and consequences for men. The purpose of this study was to examine how men in a homogeneous setting (i.e., a college campus) compare on MGRC and psychological well-being, based on their self-identified sexual orientation. Utilizing canonical correlation analysis, 96 heterosexual men and 102 gay men were compared on four factors of MGRC (conflict between work and family, restrictive emotionality, restrictive affectionate behavior between men, and success, power, and competition) and five factors of psychological well-being (anger, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and attitudes toward seeking psychological help). Findings for the heterosexual men were highly consistent with previous studies on MGRC and psychological well-being in a college-age population. Findings for the gay men indicated they had more problems with MGRC and psychological well-being than college-age and older gay men surveyed in the one published study on gay men and MGRC. Gay men who were single also reported more problems with restrictive emotionality, anger, anxiety, and depression, and had lower self-esteem, than gay men who were in a relationship. Between group differences were few, with gay men reporting significantly less restrictive affectionate behavior between men than heterosexual men. There were no significant differences between the two groups on any of the psychological well-being variables, indicating that the gay men were no more pathological than the heterosexual men with respect to their psychological well-being. Overall, the psychological well-being of both populations was seen to suffer as a result of increased MGRC. Implications are discussed for psychological interventions with men who are bound by traditional male gender role stereotypes.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Fault Lines positions a theory of gay male subjectivity as it relates to the Queer skinhead and its dissemination in gay male pornography. In narrating the transformation of the original skinhead as a subcultural youth type to its present re-signification as a fetish and sexual identity within gay male subculture, Fault Lines reveals a tripartite problem of fetishism, sadomasochism and fascism. Through an analysis of Bruce LaBruce's film Skin Gang / Skin Flick (1999) these problems are contextualised within a discourse of gay male pornography, broadening the investigation to consider how problems of masculinity, violence and race manifest within a distinctly gay male sexual imaginary. Examining the representational function of the Queer skinhead, Fault Lines seeks to speculate on how notions of a gay male subject and subjectivity can be established at the intersection of an aesthetic, political and social experience.

The word gaydar has been known as a sort of “radar” which is able to identity or single out gays. Many people argue they possess this so-called “sixth sense” as they label one as gay”. The self-help book Cuidado! Seu Príncipe poder ser uma Cinderela. Guia prático para identificar um gay no armário [“Watch out! Your Prince charming may be a Cinderella. A practical guide to identify a gay in the closet”] aims to help women to out their partners. Our work, thus, is a result of a bibliographical research which sought to identify and criticize the identitary elements used by the authors in order to teach women how to perceive if their partners are gays in the closet. As analyzing the book we mainly concluded that: a) in order to validate their standpoints, the authors have employed a polyphonic discourse based upon either the “experience” or the “authority”. The book has been written with their voices (the authors‟) as well as Sofia‟s and W‟s, and with other participants‟; b) they obsessively have a passion for identifying one as gay through gender elements or stereotypes. Therefore we argue that the book considers hegemonic masculinity as a synonym for heterosexuality. Men who perform counter-hegemonic masculinity may be trapped in the closet, as they are considered gays, as well as suffer verbal and non-verbal homophobic violence; that is, their bodies become more vulnerable; c) the authors perform a “sanitization of women‟s desire”, given that they incite women who have labeled their partners as gay not to carry their relationship on if they become suspicious about their partner‟s sexuality. As concerned with gaydar itself, we have reasoned it as sort of “dispositive” that rules desire, gender and the sexuality of the bodies. Gaydar is a dispositive that forces the bodies to fit into the heteronormative world. For defining dispositive we have agreed on Michel Foucault‟s definition (2006; 2007). Thus, we have come up with eleven visible heterogenic strategies which compound part of the complexity about the dispositive gaydar. Those strategies we named as: 1) power strategy; 2) power-knowledge strategy; 3) binarist strategy; 4) heternormative and homophobic strategy; 5) stereotypical strategy; 6) historic strategy; 7) identitary strategy; 8) sexist strategy; 9) fictional strategy; 10) closet strategy; and 11) performative strategy. In order to present these strategies, we had to base our claims on some outstanding and sine qua non works which together must be figured out as the foundations for the work we carried out: the concept of performativity by Austin (AUSTIN, 1999 [1962]), identity (HALL, 2006; 2011; SILVA, 2001; 2011), sexuality (FOUCAULT, 2006; SEIDMAN, 2010); gender (BUTLER, 2007 [1991]), closet (SEDGWICK, 2007); masculinity (WELZER-LANG, 2000) and bio-power (FOUCAULT, 2006).
O tema central deste trabalho se pauta no conceito/definição e utilização do gaydar tanto num livro de autoajuda quanto na sociedade em geral. O “gaydar” tem sido definido – latu sensu – como uma espécie de radar ou “sexto sentido” que serve para identificar a homossexualidade das pessoas. Muitas pessoas acreditam possuir esse dispositivo e, por isso, se consideram capazes de dizer se determinado homem é gay ou não. A popularidade do termo promoveu a escrita e publicação do livro Cuidado! Seu Príncipe pode ser uma Cinderela. Guia prático para identificar um gay no armário. Esse guia tem como objetivo ensinar mulheres, através de dicas, a descobrirem se seus parceiros são gays no armário. Assim, este trabalho dissertativo é resultado uma pesquisa bibliográfica que teve como objetivo apresentar os elementos identitários que foram utilizados para definir e performar o “gaydar” nesse livro de autoajuda. A análise das 207 páginas do livro possibilitou reconhecer que foi escrito dentro de um discurso polifônico em que existem as vozes das autoras, Ticiana Azevedo & Consuelo Dieguez, a voz de pessoas entrevistadas, a voz de internautas e a voz de amigas e amigos como Sofia e W. Observamos que essas vozes tecem uma rede em que produzem um discurso de autoridade para a escrita e os argumentos do livro. Percebemos também uma obessessão pelas autoras para definir homossexualidade a partir dos estereótipos de gênero feminino. Por isso, o livro considera a masculinidade hegemônica como sinônimo de uma heterossexualidade, ao passo que as masculinidades contra- ou menos hegemônicas são tomadas como homossexualidade. Ainda concluimos que as autoras performam uma higienização do desejo da mulher, pois incitam o fim do relacionamento se elas duvidarem da heterossexualidade de seus parceiros. Não obstante, para compreender sobre a maneira em que o gaydar é realizado no livro, foi necessário nos apoiar no conceito de performatividade (AUSTIN, 1999 [1962]), de identidade (HALL, 2006; 2011; SILVA, 2001; 2011), de sexualidade (FOUCAULT, 2006; SEIDMAN, 2010); de Gênero (BUTLER, 2007 [1991]), de armário (SEDGWICK, 2007), masculinidade (WELZER-LANG, 2000) e biopoder (FOUCAULT, 2006). Essas obras possuem fundamental importância para o desenvolvimento do trabalho que aqui realizamos. A análise realizada sobre livro e as leituras dos temas que envolvem a identidade e performatividade nos permitiram apontar que o gaydar funciona por meio de dispositivos os quais foram chamados de: 1) estratégia de poder; 2) estratégia de poder-saber; 3) estratégia binarista; 4) estratégia heteronormativa e homofóbica; 5) estratégia de estereótipos; 6) estratégia histórica; 7) estratégia identitária; 8) estratégia sexista; 9) estratégia ficcional; 10) estratégia do armário; e 11) estratégia performativa. Por isso, são essas estratégias os caminhos necessários para analisar o ritual que o gaydar promove sobre as identidades dos indivíduos.

Searching to find answers for young acting students while strengthening their own self worth, I will explore the history of gay actors in film, television and theatre and in society to understand this notion more fully. By interviewing working actors and managers in the business I will explore how I can address this question of “straightening up” to the future generation of actors and analyze how we can face the future with integrity and self-respect.

La homosexualidad masculina, durante la primera guerra fría, se articuló en la literatura norteamericana en torno a dos ejes: las asunciones heroicas de masculinidad (subordinadoras de masculinidades alternativas) y la frontera como sitio y mito.La masculinidad heroica, otrora hegemónica, y la homosexualidad de los personajes de ficción analizados se presentan unidas en una época donde el discurso médico, jurídico, publicitario y político quiso divorciarlas. Esa unión se produjo en uno de los sitios más masculinistas de la tradición norteamericana: la frontera, fuera real, simbólica o imaginaria. Estos personajes no consiguen alejarse de las posiciones patriarcales que los oprimen como homosexuales. Por tanto, esa masculinidad que tanto ansían abrazar queda lejos de ser garante de pleno desarrollo individual, excepto en la frontera categórica con la realidad. Estas ficciones, escritas en el umbral de la posmodernidad, suponen una apelación a los procesos desintegradores y liberalizadores de la misma.Homosexuality was articulated around two ideas during the first part of the Cold War: heroic assumptions of masculinity -subordinators of alternative masculinities- and the frontier as place and myth. The heroic masculinity -long ago hegemonic- and the homosexuality of the fictional characters analysed go hand in hand in a time when medical, legal, political and mass-media discourses meant to separate them. We can see that union in one of the most man-dominated places in American tradition: the frontier, be it real, symbolic or imaginary. These characters cannot get away from the patriarchal positions which oppress them as homosexuals. Therefore, that masculinity they long to hold onto does not guarantee their integrity as human beings, except in the categorical frontier with reality itself. For these fictions, written at the threshold of postmodernity, appeal to its disintegrating and liberating processes.

Analyzing Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights and linking trends of the Byronic hero that have merged into a variety of genres reveal that the hero is a mode of subversive gender expression, which has evolved within the Gothic through feminine desire. Delving into Bram Stoker’s Dracula will provide unique insight into the audience’s desires/expressions of gender. Finding the transition point from the monster vampire of Dracula to Stephanie Meyer’s desirous, sparkling boy-next-door in Twilight will track the trajectory of gender and sexual norms through time. From the foundational adaptation of the Byronic hero in Wuthering Heights to the repressed vampiric desire of Dracula, to queer desire/domestication within Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire, ending with sparkling vampires of Twilight, we can invite the Byronic hero, which already supports rejection of societal expectations, into a genderless space, becoming a champion of desire absent from the constraints of gender and sexuality conformity.

Tableau d’honneur de la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales, 2015-2016Ce mémoire explore les stratégies corporelles des hommes gay, ainsi que leur rôle dans la construction, la négociation et l'affirmation de leur identité masculine, au quotidien. Il repose sur les concepts centraux d'identité incorporée et de performativité de l'identité de genre. Les données, qualitatives, ont été recueillies auprès de résidants de quatre métropoles états-uniennes qui s'investissent activement dans des projets corporels incluant la chirurgie esthétique, les rituels de grooming et les pratiques vestimentaires. Le mémoire met en évidence le rôle crucial du corps dans la création et la performance de l'identité masculine gay. Parfois transformé afin qu'il se conforme aux canons de beauté associés à la masculinité hégémonique, dans la communauté gay comme dans la société en général, le corps, nu ou habillé, apparaît dès lors comme le produit d'un travail, l'indicateur d'une volonté et le signe d'une compétence, car chacun est considéré responsable de l'image qu'il donne de lui-même. MOTS CLÉS: masculinité, gay, identité, corps, ville globale, apparence, chirurgie esthétique.

Le jeu de Harvey Keitel et de Rod Steiger réinventent les modèles de masculinité traditionnelle et les rôles de tough guys dans le cinéma américain. Ils permettent la déconstruction des notions-types du genre par l’ouverture de leur interprétation aux émotions, l’harmonie psycho-physique et la concentration sur les intentions et les circonstances. Keitel, acteur-icône du cinéma indépendant et découvreur de talents, se démarque dans un jeu marqué par l’intensité et l’exploration des aspects les plus sombres de l’humanité. Steiger excelle par la figuration de la solitude, de l’ambiguïté et de l’ambivalence, et figure des personnages tels que Napoléon, Mussolini ou Al Capone. Tous deux passés par l’interprétation américaine de la Méthode de Stanislavski, Keitel et Steiger s’affirment comme des acteurs-personnages, davantage que comme des stars. En effet, peu soucieux de leur image d’acteur, ils s’immergent dans la création de leurs personnages et figurent la relation complexe entre Moi social et Moi créateur. A travers l’analyse détaillée de leurs performances dans des genres différents, il semble que la comédie et les drames sentimentaux permettent aux acteurs de créer des performances adoucies, et de libérer leur imaginaire d’acteur-auteurHarvey Keitel and Rod Steiger’s performances reinvent the models of traditional masculinity and shed a new light on tough-guy roles in American film. Their emotional performances, their psycho-physical approach and their focus on objectives and circumstances open up new perspectives on gender and genre and lead to a deconstruction of the standard notions of genre. Keitel has become an iconic actor of independent cinema, by helping new directors and actors; and stands out with intense performances, which explore the darkest sides of humanity. Steiger excels in showing solitude, ambiguity and ambivalence, and acts various parts, such as Napoleon, Mussolini or Al Capone. Both actors study the American interpretation of Stanislavsky’s Method, and choose to become character-actors, rather than stars. Indeed, their inner acting primarily relies on the creation of a character, keeping in mind the complex relationship between Moi social and Moi créateur, and leaving aside their concern for their own image as actors. Through the detailed analysis of their performances in different genre movies, it comes to light that comedy, romance and drama allow the actors to free their performance from masculine stereotypes and to express their imagination as auteurs

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Cette étude se veut regard anthropologique sur la crise de l'identité masculine à la fin du XIXème siècle. Le célibataire dont parle Maupassant incarne un homme dont la virilité est remise en cause par l'émancipation progressive de la femme, qui en est perçue comme responsable. Le pari de cette thèse était de tester l'hypothèse selon laquelle il existerait un lien entre libertinage, solitude et folie. Nous avons tenté de comprendre comment cette identité masculine en crise, cette "mâlitude", s'exprime et se façonne au contact de l'Autre, la Femme, et à son absence de contact. Nous avancerons que le célibataire qui ne veut et/ou ne peut se constituer en homme, en "vrai" en refusant mariage et enfants, se condamne à voir en la femme fascination et terreur, ce qui le laisse finalement incapable de fonder toute relation et ainsi dans l'impasse, seul face à lui-même, au vide de sa vie, éternel adolescent, déchiré entre ses fantasmes et ses crises d'angoisse. Nous avons examiné le passage du célibataire d'une solitude recherchée et cultivée à une solitude qui se fait prison et à laquelle il ne peut plus échapper. Après avoir tenté de fuir la femme et sa force castratrice, la solitude l'étouffe : seul chez lui, il se crée un être imaginaire, une Ève nouvelle, plus rassurante qu'une vraie femme, afin de combler le vide laissé par la solitude. Ces fantômes se nourriront de sa folie pour le mener vers l'asile ou bien la mort, quand il aura réalisé que le mal n'est finalement pas au cœur de la femme, mais ancré au plus profond de son êtreMy dissertation proposes to analyze the crisis of male identity at the end of the nineteenth-century in France through a close study of Guy de Maupassant's bachelors, and show a link between libertinage, solitude and folly. I try to show how this crisis, this "mâlitude", is expressed and molded through contact (or lack of) with women. I argue that the bachelor who does not want and/or cannot become a "man", in the nineteenth-century sense of the term i.e. a husband and a father, is condemned to see in women a source of fascination and terror, leaving him unable to form any human connection. Faced with his lonely self and the vacuum of his life, he remains an eternal adolescent torn between his fantasies and his anguish. The bachelor evolves from cultivated loneliness to stifling isolation. After fleeing women and their castrating force, he tries to imagine an ideal woman who would fill the void in his life, but these ghosts will feed (on) his madness and will lead him to an asylum or death itself, after he realized that evil did not lay in the heart of women after all, but was lurking in his own core

In this thesis, I explore Latino masculinities and contest their uniformity through transforming an oral history conducted with my father into a collection of short stories. Following storytelling traditions of Latino/Mexican culture, I converted an oral history interviews with my dad into a collection of short stories. From these short stories I extracted themes relating to the micro and macro manifestations of gender policing. Drawing from Judith Butler's Theory of performativity and Gloria Anzaldua's theory of Borderland identities, I rethink masculinity and offer Jose Esteban Munoz's theory of disidentification. With these theories in conversation, I analyze the themes of the short stories I present. In Chapter One, I investigate the potential of verguenza and respeto, or shame and respect, to complicate masculinity. In Chapter Two, I critically analyze my father's interaction with INS officials during his interview to become a U.S. resident. In these two sets of stories, I use disidentification to uncover the third space relationship with masculinity. I see this relationship at the intersections of race, class, gender and ability, the identities which come together to leave my father in the borderlands. Ultimately, I complicate masculinity through these analyses, offering a space for a nonoppressive masculinity.

This thesis reads the representations of black masculinity in three contemporary American novels, David Bradley’s The Chaneysville Incident (1981), Edward P. Jones’ The Known World (2003) and Gayl Jones’ Corregidora (1975), and demonstrates that all three, in their different ways, connect black manhood with the traumatic history of slavery. Male identities threatened and problematised by slavery are, the thesis suggests, inherited by modern African–American culture. Considering the ways in which these identities resurface in these contemporary novels thus offers insight into the ways in which black masculinity, while apparently condemned to recycle the paradigms of the past, can be seen to re-make and redefine them. In its analysis of Henry Townsend in The Known World, a figure who follows the established discourses of white power, the suggestion is that even as he enacts these ideological forces he simultaneously undermines them through his rejection of hierarchical definitions based on the laws of property ownership. The desire to become a slaveholder and be accepted by upper-class white society is an attempt to constitute his manhood according to the legal framework underlying the institution of slavery. Even as he does this, however, Henry cannot entirely leave his past behind and he finds himself torn between white southern definitions of masculinity and those associated with his slave past. Similar tensions can be seen in the hustler manhood of Moses Washington in The Chaneysville Incident. While attempting to resist the power structures through his criminal activities, he finds himself imitating the agrarian capitalistic principles underlying the practice of slavery. Like Henry, Moses perpetuates the discourses of slavery, embracing the power structures that created slavery as a paradigm on which to model his masculinity. The hypothesis is that both Henry’s and Moses’ expressions of masculinity are actually following definitions of manhood inherited from both the discourses of white power and the Africanised self-definitions of African-Americans evolving since slavery, and, therefore, cannot be viewed as alternative masculinities for African–American culture. In contrast to this reading of Henry and Moses, the thesis goes on to suggest that the figure of Mutt in Corregidora can be regarded as an attempt to delineate a paradigm of masculinity that breaks more effectively with the past. Instead of imitating abusive models of manhood, the novel ultimately resists such violence and rejects processes of emasculation. This thesis, therefore, offers an insight into how the historical emasculation of African–Americans has shaped and is still shaping definitions of black identity.

Pourquoi, si la démocratisation de l’Espagne après la dictature franquiste est exemplaire, les archives judiciaires font parfois état d’une répression contre des subjectivités homosexuelles jusque dans la deuxième moitié des années 1980 à Barcelone ? Si l’on met à distance la mémoire épique des luttes LGBT postfranquistes, d’autres subjectivités sexuelles apparaissent qui refusent de s’identifier à la Constitution de 1978 garante des droits formels des Espagnols. L’étude s’intéresse à la moralisation du répertoire lexical de la démocratisation espagnole et essaie de mettre au jour l’économie morale de la « Transition » démocratique, portée par un sujet théorique, les « classes moyennes ». Elles sont dotées d’un capital symbolique fort alors que l’Espagne entre dans le capitalisme de consommation, dès les années 1960 sous Franco. Si le consensus est le maître-mot de la Transition, tous les Espagnols n’en font pas la même expérience : pour certaines subjectivités gay, c’est une « barbarie institutionnalisée ». Ces voix et leur répression politique, dont l’étude est inédite, permettent de montrer que la « sphère privée », où les sexualités minoritaires sont tolérées avec la Constitution de 1978, s’apparente à une segmentation du sexuel et du social, qui vise à séparer par un usage disciplinaire du « public » et du « privé » ce que des subjectivités politiques homosexuelles faisaient tenir ensemble. Les valeurs morales des classes moyennes de Franco pénètrent les langages de la démocratie, ceux des Droits de l’Homme notamment. Ce faisant, ils immunisent certains sujets et en exposent d’autres à une violence politique oubliée de la « Transition ». L’étude cherche à réviser un des postulats des démocraties occidentales actuelles, qui garantissent des droits fondamentaux comme celui de la « vie privée » : replacé dans son contexte d’énonciation de l’Espagne postfranquiste, il retrouve une intention disciplinaire contre les sujets résistants au consensus démocratique. Poursuivis par l’État, devenus « marginaux » et pour beaucoup perdus dans les années 1980, toxicomanes et prostitués, ils n’ont pas droit aux conquêtes des luttes qu’ils ont incarnées, la libre disposition du corps et des sexualités. Envisagé par une histoire post-sociale des « révolutions sexuelles » des années 1970, le paradigme queer, qui parfois autonomise les sexualités, ne montre pas que tous les sujets n’ont pas eu accès à ce droit moralisé en Espagne. Cette étude discute et historicise ces catégories qui travaillent les logiques de reconnaissance des minorités sexuelles du temps présentIf the democratization of Spain after the fall of the Franco regime is exemplary, then why do criminal records indicate that repressive actions have sometimes been conducted against homosexual subjectivities in Barcelona until the late 1980's ? If one puts aside the epic memory of the LGBT fights that took place after the end of Francoism, other sexual subjectivities appear which refuse to accept the Spanish Constitution of 1978. This study looks into the moralization of the vocabulary of the Spanish democratization and attempts to highlight the moral economy of the democratic « Transition », whose carrier is a theoretical subject, the « middle class ». It shows an important symbolic capital at the time when Spain enters consumption capitalism, starting from the 1960's. Even though consensus is the key term of the Transition, not every Spaniard experiences it the same way : for some gays, it is an « institutionalised barbarism ». These voices and their political repression, which has not been studied so far, help to demonstrate that the « private sphere », where minority sexualities have been tolerated since the 1978 Constitution, is akin to a segmentation of social and sexual domains which aims at separating, making a disciplinary use of the concepts « publicness » and « privacy », what political homosexual subjectivities held together. The moral values of Franco's middle class contaminate the languages of democracy, especially those of Human Rights. Thus, they protect certain subjects while exposing others to a political violence of the « Transition » which has been forgotten. This study aims at questioning one particular postulate of today's western democracies, which guarantee fundamental rights like that to « privacy » : in it's context of enunciation, right after the end of Francoism, it bears a disciplinary intent against those resisting the democratic consensus. Persecuted by the government, they became « marginals » and, often in the 1980's, drug addicts and prostitutes : they are not entitled to the rights they fought for, namely the free use of one's body and sexuality. Seen through the filter of a post-social history of the « sexual revolutions » in the 1970's, the queer paradigm, which sometimes grants autonomy to sexualities, does not show that all subjects did not access this moralized right in Spain. This study discusses and historicizes these categories which underlie the recognition logics of today’s sexual minorities
Si la democratización de España después de la dictadura franquista es ejemplar, ¿por qué los archivos judiciales a veces dan cuenta de una represión contra subjetividades homosexuales hasta la segunda mitad de los años 1980 en Barcelona? Si nos distanciamos de la memoria épica de las luchas épicas LGTB posfranquistas, otras subjetividades sexuales aparecen y se niegan a identificarse a la Constitución de 1978, a pesar de que garantice los derechos formales de los españoles. El estudio está interesado en la moralización del repertorio léxico de la democratización española y trata de desvelar la economía moral de la “Tranción” democrática, encarnada en un sujeto teórico, “las clases medias”. Están dotadas de un capital simbólico fuerte mientras España ingresa en el capitalismo de consumo y desde los años 1960 bajo Franco. Si el consenso es el concepto clave de la transición, no todos los españoles lo experimentan de la misma manera: para determinadas subjetividades gays, es una “barbarie institucionalizada”. Esas voces y su represión política, cuyo estudio es inédito, permiten mostrar que la “esfera privada”, en la que se toleran las sexualidades minoritarias con la Constitución de 1978, se parece a una segmentación de lo sexual y lo social, que apunta a separar con un uso disciplinario de lo “público” y de lo “privado” aquello que subjetividades homosexuales experimentaban juntamente. Los valores de las clases medias de Franco penetran los lenguajes de la democracia, los de los Derechos Humanos entre otros. Inmunizan determinados sujetos y exponen a otros a una violencia política olvidada de la “Transición”. El estudio pretende revisar los postulados de las democracias actuales que garantizan derechos fundamentales como la “vida privada”: en el contexto posfranquista en que acontece, cobra una intencionalidad disciplinaria hacia sujetos que resisten al consenso democrático. Represaliados por el Estado y convertidos en « marginados », perdidos en los 1980, drogadictos y prostituidos, no acceden a las conquistas de las luchas que encarnaron, la libre disposición del cuerpo y de las sexualidades propias. Enfocado desde una historia post-social de las “revoluciones sexuales” de los setenta, el paradigma sociológico queer, que a veces autonomiza las sexualidades, no muestra que no todos los sujetos accedieron a ese derecho moralizado en España. Este estudio discute e historiciza estas categorías que operan en las lógicas de reconocimiento de las minorías sexuales del tiempo presente
