Emotionality in Same-Sex Attracted Men's Sexual Scripting Emotionality in same-sex attracted men’s sexual scripting: Four expatriate men in Burma tell their stories by Kerry William Kim Benton BBSc, GradDipBS, DipDrama, LTh. Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deakin University November 2013 Acknowledgments I could not have accomplished this thesis without the support and encouragement of my supervisor Dr Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli, and I am so appreciative of her generosity and graciousness in sharing her expertise and insight. I also want to express my thanks to Dr Pallotta-Chiarolli for guiding me in my research with such candidness and good humour and being for me so intellectually inspiring. I am deeply grateful for her judicious handling of my candidature, despite the obstacles of being a remote student, firstly in Myanmar, and then in rural Victoria. I have so welcomed her warm friendship and I look forward to continuing our association in the future. I extend my sincere thanks to the three men, who gave of their time and bravely subjected themselves to my questions with such honesty and candidness, and without whom this thesis would not have been possible. I am indebted to Bruce Gallacher for his support and generosity in gently leading me through the initial interview. I am most appreciative of the insightful assistance and comments of Bob Pease and Daniel Marshall, and Phoebe Taylor for her editorial assistance. I also wish to thank my friends and colleagues for supporting the work, especially the Burnet Institute for Medical Research and International Health, and the Anglican Diocese of Wangaratta for study leave. 1 Finally, my heartfelt thanks to my partner, my lover and best friend, whose grace and good humour has been such an immeasurable source of encouragement. 2 Abstract Sexual scripting is understood to refer to the plot that guides a person’s sexual expression. Script theory distinguishes three dimensions of a sexual script: cultural scenarios, which provide general socio-cultural regulations and guidelines for roles in all aspects of sexual behaviour, including the influence of constructs of masculinity and gender; the intrapsychic - the motivational elements that produce arousal; and the interpersonal – the script as the organisation of mutually shared conventions (Gagnon & Simon, 1973). Sexual script theory therefore provides a dramaturgical metaphor to frame sexual expression and behaviour, and to provide meaning and referential elements, which can be analysed and reworked according to new situations and experiences. The word “emotionality” generally refers to an individual’s predominant intensity of emotional reactivity. However, “emotional” is also often used to refer to a general matrix of experience within which behaviour is embedded. This matrix is set in the context of emotional syndromes, constituted from existential beliefs and social rules. Emotional appraisal and expression are also set in a cultural context and as such emotional scripts guide and govern emotional responses. In this thesis I have endeavoured to illustrate that there is an integral relationship of emotionality to men’s sexuality and sexual scripts. The research is grounded in qualitative methods of enquiry, in particular autoethnography. Four case studies of men, one of which was my own 3 as both participant and researcher, were collected through interactive interviews and then analysed using grounded theory to both describe and interpret the interaction of emotionality with sexual scripting. There are important components of bodily and emotional interactions in these scripts, but these are not merely cultural signals. Rather, these components are learnt, honed, adapted and reinforced by the intrinsic rewards, pleasures, and satisfactions that result from the performance of specific scripts, and the abandoning of other scripts that are no longer relevant or salient. This is accomplished through a reflexive process of engagement with oneself and others within an emotional and sexual environment to produce competent sexual scripts that lead to sexual and emotional satisfaction. Further research is necessary to investigate the interaction and the intersection of sexual scripts and emotional scripts to understand how emotional scripts influence the enactment of sexual scripts, and how interactions of sexuality, identity, desire, gender and emotions are present and influential in the construction and performance of sexual scripts. 4 Frontispiece: “Men by daaram” by Olivier

  • Thesis Polygamy on the Web: an Online Community for An
    THESIS POLYGAMY ON THE WEB: AN ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR AN UNCONVENTIONAL PRACTICE Submitted by Kristen Sweet-McFarling Department of Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2014 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Lynn Kwiatkowski Cindy Griffin Barbara Hawthorne Copyright by Kristen Sweet-McFarling 2014 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT POLYGAMY ON THE WEB: AN ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR AN UNCONVENTIONAL PRACTICE This thesis is a virtual ethnographic study of a polygamy website consisting of one chat room, several discussion boards, and polygamy related information and links. The findings of this research are based on the interactions and activities of women and men on the polygamy website. The research addressed the following questions: 1) what are individuals using the website for? 2) What are website members communicating about? 3) How are individuals using the website to search for polygamous relationships? 4) Are website members forming connections and meeting people offline through the use of the website? 5) Do members of the website perceive the Internet to be affecting the contemporary practice of polygamy in the U.S.? This research focused more on the desire to create a polygamous relationship rather than established polygamous marriages and kinship networks. This study found that since the naturalization of monogamous heterosexual marriage and the nuclear family has occurred in the U.S., due to a number of historical, social, cultural, political, and economic factors, the Internet can provide a means to denaturalize these concepts and provide a space for the expression and support of counter discourses of marriage, like polygamy.

    Anal Lickfest Review Reviewed: 12/05/2006 (Updated: 09/02/2007) Porn Reviews Bisexual Reviews Adult Reviews Introduction Some sites are hard to figure out just from their name alone. Anal LickFest is not one of them. This site offers all the anilingus, felching, and oral ass play that any enthusiast could ever ask for. These are gorgeous sluts getting interviewed as they eat ass and earn a well felched cumshot! Adult Review Ever wonder what happened to Khan Tusion and the rest of the guys from the Meatholes site when it stopped updating? The production crew from Meatholes is still active and their current project sets a new standard for backdoor filth! If you were a Meatholes member in the past, joining up to see what the guys have gotten into now is something you will want to consider doing. Anal Lickfest includes all the psychodrama and interview expertise that only Khan Tusion can provide. His pre-shoot talks with the ladies about to perform for Anal Lickfest are worth the price of admission all by themselves. He gets them to use their real names, finds out their nicknames and even gets some of these gals to tell you what high-school they really went to! Perhaps you'll see someone you recognize. Each scene features two stunning starlets who spend some couch time with Khan answering questions about their private lives, what their parents do for a living and more. When Khan finds a juicy nugget that strikes a nerve he delves deeper and the scene only gets hotter.

  • Prosociality and a Sociosexual Hypothesis for the Evolution of Same-Sex Attraction in Humans
    fpsyg-10-02955 January 10, 2020 Time: 9:34 # 1 PERSPECTIVE published: 16 January 2020 doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2019.02955 Prosociality and a Sociosexual Hypothesis for the Evolution of Same-Sex Attraction in Humans Andrew B. Barron1* and Brian Hare2 1 Department of Biological Sciences, Macquarie University, Sydney, NSW, Australia, 2 Department of Evolutionary Anthropology, Center for Cognitive Science, Duke University, Durham, NC, United States Human same-sex sexual attraction (SSSA) has long been considered to be an evolutionary puzzle. The trait is clearly biological: it is widespread and has a strong additive genetic basis, but how SSSA has evolved remains a subject of debate. Of itself, homosexual sexual behavior will not yield offspring, and consequently individuals expressing strong SSSA that are mostly or exclusively homosexual are presumed to have lower fitness and reproductive success. How then did the trait evolve, and how is it maintained in populations? Here we develop a novel argument for the evolution of SSSA that focuses on the likely adaptive social consequences of SSSA. We argue that same sex sexual attraction evolved as just one of a suite of traits responding to strong selection for ease of social integration or prosocial behavior. A strong driver of Edited by: recent human behavioral evolution has been selection for reduced reactive aggression, Antonio Benítez-Burraco, University of Seville, Spain increased social affiliation, social communication, and ease of social integration.
