AsiaPacifQueer : Rethinking Genders and Sexualities  / 

ed. by Fran Martin ... [et al.].Urbana, IL [etc.]: University of Illinois Press, 2008 - 278 p.: ill.
edition: Urbana, IL [etc.]: University of Illinois Press, 2008 - 278 p.: ill.
annotation: Bibliogr. passim.
subjects:
resume: This interdisciplinary collection examines the shaping of local sexual cultures in the Asian Pacific region in order to move beyond definitions and understandings of sexuality that rely on Western assumptions. The diverse studies in AsiaPacifiQueer demonstrate convincingly that in the realm of sexualities, globalization results in creative and cultural admixture rather than a unilateral imposition of the western values and forms of sexual culture. These essays range across the Pacific Rim and encompass a variety of forms of social, cultural, and personal expression, examining sexuality through music, cinema, the media, shifts in popular rhetoric, comics and magazines, and historical studies. By investigating complex processes of localization, interregional borrowing, and hybridization, the contributors underscore the mutual transformation of gender and sexuality in both Asian Pacific and Western cultures. Contributors are Ronald Baytan, J. Neil C. Garcia, Kam Yip Lo Lucetta, Song Hwee Lim, J. Darren Mackintosh, Claire Maree, Jin-Hyung Park, Teri Silvio, Megan Sinnott, Yik Koon Teh, Carmen Ka Man Tong, James Welker, Heather Worth, and Audrey Yue.

Shanghai Lalas : Female Tongzhi Communities and Politics in Urban China  / 

Lucetta Yip Lo Kam.Hong Kong: Hong Kong University Press, 2013 - x, 142 p.
edition: Hong Kong: Hong Kong University Press, 2013 - x, 142 p.
annotation: Bibliogr.: p. 129-138.
subjects:
resume: This is the first ethnographic study of lala (lesbian, bisexual, and transgender) communities and politics in China, focusing on the city of Shanghai. Based on several years of in-depth interviews, the volume concentrates on lalas' everyday struggle to reconcile same-sex desires with a dominant rhetoric of family harmony and compulsory marriage, all within a culture denying women active and legitimate sexual agency. Lucetta Yip Lo Kam reads discourses on homophobia in China, including the rhetoric of "Chinese tolerance," and considers the heteronormative demands imposed on tongzhi subjects. She treats "the politics of public correctness" as a newly emerging tongzhi practice developed from the culturally specific, Chinese forms of regulation that inform tongzhi survival strategies and self-identification. Alternating between Kam's own experiences with queer identity and her extensive ethnographic findings, this text offers a contemporary portrait of female tongzhi communities and politics in urban China, making an invaluable contribution to global discussions and international debates on same-sex intimacies, homophobia, coming-out politics, and sexual governance.

resume: The research project aims to provide a qualitative account of the life experiences and gender identifications of masculine women in Hong Kong. It is based on the life experiences of 18 women informants (aged from 21 to 48,all ethnically Chinese) who have been mistaken as males by other social members in local public. They are recruited to this project based on the shared experience of public gender mis-recognition. The term "masculine women" is made up by the researcher as an attempt to identify women with similar experiences or culturally recognised masculine attributes. Information about the informants is collected by individual in-depth interviews. The interactions between individual gender configurations of informants and different kinds of collective gender discourses prevalent in local society are studied. These include the ways informants apply to cope with everyday public or private gender scrutiny, to negotiate with mainstream gender discourses, and to construct alternatively of their gender identities. Special attention is paid to the following areas: the public labels and personal gender interpretations of masculine women; the popular gender discourses in Hong Kong; the gender negotiations of informants in various influential social interactions (family, school, workplace, courting relationship etc.) and with messages from the mass media. The study discovers that ideas about masculinity are usually transferred to the informants by their mothers during younger years. Paternal influences or modeling effects on gender style are less significant according to the experiences of many informants. Female masculine models in media, peer groups or some identity-based communities are found to be significant source of gender learning and social support to informants. In everyday life, informants negotiate with the social gender expectation by adopting culturally recognizable discourses to make sense of their gender styles and identifications. The dominant heterosexual gender framework is adopted by informants to conceptualize their genders, while, at the same time new discursive possibilities are invited by individual manipulations of the major framework. The very social existence of informants in this project is brought about by public mis-recognition. Their living experiences call for a new cultural and theoretical recognition of female genders beyond the binary categorization, and a revision of the position of women in the studies of masculinity in any given culture.
