Cette étude a pris corps dans le projet européen FamiliesAndSocieties1. La recherche s’est concentrée sur la manière dont les homo-bi-trans-sexuel-le-s appréhendaient la vie quotidienne, la reconnaissance légale –ou son absence- des relations entre les couples et son impact sur les liens personnels et les projets parentaux. Le choix des pays questionnait les modalités juridiques et les comportements des individus selon les structures légales et les contextes nationaux dans lesquelles ils évoluaient. Les entretiens semi-directifs ont été menées dans chaque pays selon un guide établi par les quatre équipes nationales dans une perspective comparative. Les rapports nationaux ont suivi une thématique identique pour permettre la comparaison qui a été effectuée dans un rapport remis à l’Union européenne2 1 Financement no. 320116 du projet de recherche FamiliesAndSocieties du 7e programme cadre de l’Union européenne (FP7/2007-2013) 2 Digoix, M., Franchi, M.

Masculinity as Prison: Sexual Identity, Race, and Incarceration Russell K. Robinson* The Los Angeles County Men's Jail segregatesgay and transgender inmates and says that it does so to protect them from sexual assault. But not all gay and transgenderinmates qualify for admission to the K6G unit. Transgender inmates must appear transgender to staff that inspect them. Gay men must identify as gay in a public space and then satisfactorily answer a series of cultural questions designed to determine whether they really are gay. This policy creates harms for those who are excluded, including vulnerable heterosexual and bisexual men, men who have sex with men but do not embrace gay identity, and gay-identified men who do not mimic white, affluent gay culture. Further,the policy harms those who are included in that it stereotypes them as inherent victims, exposes them to a heightened risk of HIV transmission, and disrupts relationships that cut across gender identity and sexual orientation.

In three articles, this master’s thesis examines various aspects of Jamaican attitudes toward homosexuality. The first article discusses Jamaican homophobia in broad terms and examines the work of the country’s lone gay-rights group. The second article is a snapshot of some Jamaicans’ responses about homosexuality. The third article explores the underground gay party scene in Jamaica through the context of one such party. The thesis aims to explore this topic of Jamaican homophobia from new angles and to illuminate some of the challenges gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people face on the island nation. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank Dr. Richard Cole. His thoughtful advice and tireless dedication to the craft made me the writer I am today. I want to also thank my thesis committee members, Bill Cloud and John Sweet.

  • A Postcolonial Analysis on the Politics of the LGBTQ Movement in Colombo, Sri Lanka
    Lund University Master of Science in International Development and Management June 2019 REPAINTING THE RAINBOW A Postcolonial Analysis on the Politics of the LGBTQ Movement in Colombo, Sri Lanka Author: Joshua Arteta Gonzalez Supervisor: Catia Gregoratti ABSTRACT LGBTQ issues have been mainstreamed in media and academic literature, especially in countries of the Commonwealth of Nations, where homosexuality has been said to be criminalized through the commonly known “sodomy laws”. This has fueled an international social movement, led by Western human rights organizations, with cultural, political and economic goals seeking to ad- vance LGBTQ rights globally. However, research on these issues in Sri Lanka remains limited. This study seeks to overcome this gap by exploring the LGBTQ movement in its capital, Colombo, conducting a series of interviews to LGBTQ leaders, activists and active members of the commu- nity. The study uses social movement theory (with the concepts of grievances, collective identity and strategy) and postcolonial theory. Hence, the following research question is answered: How is the politics of the LGBTQ movement expressed in postcolonial Sri Lanka? Findings indicate that the movement’s grievances are connected to the country’s colonial history, as well as to the human rights discourse. Additionally, collective ‘identity’, a complex concept in Sri Lanka, was found to be “hybrid” among activists, and was contested by activists themselves. Lastly, it was found that there is an insinuation of concern in terms of mimicry in the strategies and a suggestion to decol- onize from Western models of activism. Key words: LGBTQ, LGBTQ activism, Sri Lanka, social movement theory, grievances, collective identity, strategy, postcolonial theory.

  • MEDIATING PHILADELPHIA's GAY URBAN SPACES a Dissertation
    TALES OF THE GAYBORHOOD: MEDIATING PHILADELPHIA’S GAY URBAN SPACES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Byron Lee May 2014 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Advisory Chair, Journalism Dr. Carolyn Kitch, Journalism Dr. John Edward Campbell, Media Studies and Production Dr. Hilary Iris Lowe, External Reader, Temple University, History © Copyright 2014 by Byron Lee All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Philadelphia, like other major North American cities, has neighborhoods that are informally known as gay neighborhoods. This project examines how Philadelphia’s Gayborhood is mediated, and how representations and markings of the Gayborhood are shaped by different discourses, namely tourism and urban development. Marking Philadelphia’s Gayborhood justifies the presence of LGBT individuals in the city by linking LGBT lives to economic activity and “positive” urban change. This dissertation reads media texts about Philadelphia’s Gayborhood against participant observations of everyday life and events in the Gayborhood, with particular emphasis on the activities of the Philadelphia Gay Tourism Caucus (PGTC). Starting in 2002, the PGTC formed and produced specific tourism materials targeting the LGBT community, including print and television advertising campaigns, the rainbow street signs, and a dedicated map of the Gayborhood. These products highlight the Gayborhood as evidence of Philadelphia’s gay-friendliness. Philadelphia’s attractiveness for LGBT travelers is rooted in the visible presence of the city’s LGBT community; Philadelphia’s established LGBT everyday life allows LGBT travelers to come and already belong in the city. To support this message, the PGTC and the Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation market the city to both visitors and locals.
