Cases reported in the local press all involved sex with underage males – no other prosecutions. Sharia law: New Sharia (Islamic) criminal code provisions, first announced in 2013, came into force in 2019. They impose the death penalty for rape, adultery and sodomy. Muslims and non-Muslims alike are threatened with death by stoning and other ‘hudud’ punishments. This prompted renewed international calls for a boycott of the luxury hotels in the US, UK and Italy owned by the oil-rich Sultanate. In response, the Sultan has pledged that there will be no enforcement of the death penalty. A de facto moratorium on the death penalty was already in place.

  • Transgenders in Korean Society
    女性心身医学 J Jp Soc Psychosom Obstet Gynecol Vol. 24, No. 3, pp. 252-254，（2020 年 3 月） ＜第 29 回日本女性心身医学会研修会 日韓合同企画 JSPOG-KSPOG Joint Symposium＞ Transgenders in Korean Society Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital Seoul, Korea Chulmin Lee Sexual minorities including transgenders have long been tabooed especially when confucianism prevailed for the last several centuries in Korea. The first transgender who courageously underwent gender reassignment surgery to a woman in 1955 eventually returned to a man in his later years. The bitter reality surfaced in a large scale only when it was broadcasted in 1990. Celebrities such as Harisu and Hong Seok-Cheon came out in early 2000 and the existence of LGBTQ in Korean society slowly had become a new normal. Harisu was a representative MTF transgender. However, the public was not favorable for another period after the Blueboy Trial broke out in Japan coincidentally around mid-2000s, although the case itself was not widely acknowledged in Korean society. Hong Seok-Cheon reappeared in media in late 2000s and prosperous as a media star as well as a cook. He may be a symbolic figure representing LGBTQs. The National Human Rights Commission of Republic of Korea reported the Research on Discrimination of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in 2014 that contains in-depth online survey from 200 students, 100 teachers, and 948 adult sexual minorities. It showed that sexual minorities are still inappropriately treated and withered. They tend to conceal themselves in fear of bullying from teachers and friends that most never notified to anyone even when bullying actually happened.

  • HAVC 186Q Queer Visual Culture: Contemporary East Asia Summer Session I Summer 2018 Tuesday/Thursday 9:00 Am - 12:30 Pm Porter Academy 248
    HAVC 186Q Queer Visual Culture: Contemporary East Asia Summer Session I Summer 2018 Tuesday/Thursday 9:00 am - 12:30 pm Porter Academy 248 Instructor: Kate Korroch Office: Kresge 220 Email: [email protected] ​ Office hours: Thursdays, 3-5 pm, Kresge 220 INTRODUCTION This class provides undergraduate students with the critical skills to grapple with contemporary ​ ​ art, visual culture, and critical theory by artists and theorists from East Asia and its diasporas. Specifically sourcing theorists and artists from this region, the class moves away from ​ hegemonic Western discourse and visual culture and reframes our understanding of how to read and communicate about bodies, genders, and sexualities. We examine seminal texts by thinkers from and about China, Japan, South Korea, and the United States and look specifically at visual culture such as K-Drama, cosmetics ads, film, performance, and photography. Together we will consider the power of visibility and invisibility in these specific and currently unfolding contexts. GUIDING QUESTIONS How do theorists and artists from East Asia and its diasporas grapple with “queer”? How does in/visibility impact queer lives and visual culture? How do the theorists and artists respond to putative hegemonic European and North American queer theory? If queer acts are disruptions of that which is normative, in what ways can “queer” be considered a methodology? GUIDELINES FOR CLASS DISCUSSION ● Be respectful ● One mic ● Listen ● Focus on what is being said and then raise your hand to respond ​ ​ ● Be aware of different experiences shaping perceptions ● When you disagree do so with the ideas not the person ● Be respectful of pronouns ● What we say in the classroom stays in the classroom (for example when a classmate shares a personal experience) REQUIREMENTS GRADING Reading Journals 30% Asset Library 10% Paper I 20% Paper II 20% Paper III 20% ATTENDANCE Regular attendance at all sessions is required for the entirety of each class and attendance will be taken during each session.

  • General Editor's Introduction
    General Editor’s Introduction PAISLEY CURRAH n the last decade, movements for transgender equality appear to have advanced I with astonishing speed, while other issues of concern to women’s movements have largely stalled, either making little progress (equal pay) or suffering real set- backs (abortion access). From policy reforms to public opinion trends, it seems that the situation has changed faster, and in a more positive direction, on issues char- acterized as “transgender rights” than it has on those understood as “women’s rights.” This apparent gap may be exacerbated in the United States: at the con- clusion of the culture wars of the last forty years, the almost inseparable bond between movements for sexual and gender freedom that marked liberationist discourse of the 1970s has been torn asunder, reconstituted through the logic of an identity politics that affirms the demands for recognition of sexual and gender minorities but finds the misogyny that still structures all women’s lives largely unintelligible, outside the scope of the liberal project of inclusion. One poll, for example, found that 72 percent of the millennial generation in the United States favor laws banning discrimination against transgender people—a proportion very close to the 73 percent who support protections for gay and lesbian people. But only 55 percent of this generation, born between 1980 and 2000, say abortion should be legal in all (22 percent) or some (33 percent) cases (Jones and Cox 2015: 42, 3). In a three-month period ending July 31, 2015, when this introduction was written, the New York Times editorial board came out in support of transgender issues seven times—and that number does not include the several almost uni- versally positive op-ed contributions published during the same period.

  • Trans)Gender Ontologies for South Korean Namjangyeoja Television Dramas
    SHOULD WE PASS ON “PASSING WOMEN”?: THE STAKES OF (TRANS)GENDER ONTOLOGIES FOR SOUTH KOREAN NAMJANGYEOJA TELEVISION DRAMAS BY SHELBY STRONG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in East Asian Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Professor Jeffrey T. Martin ABSTRACT Scholarship has gendered the protagonists of namjangyeoja dramas, South Korean live- action television dramas that focus on the lives of female-assigned people who pass as men, as “women”. I argue that we must push back against this narrow reading of namjang characters and instead embrace ambiguity and plural possibilities in namjang gender representations. The widespread pattern of namjang characters being depicted as being coerced into “confessing” that they are “women” calls into question the idea that their “real” gender can only be read as female, static, and singular. Indeed, a deeper reading reveals how some namjang protagonists are portrayed as identifying as gender non-binary and gender fluid. I propose that using “transgender” and “namjangyeoja” in conjunction with each other can help us orient to transgender possibilities in namjang dramas and illuminate how the pervasive practice of using “namjangyeoja” to categorize performances of gender nonconformity by female-assigned people is imbricated with institutionalized forms of transphobic heteronormative familism in South Korea. Ultimately, I argue that we must be vigilant about how our choice to affirm certain ontologies (e.g., “namjangyeoja”) over others (e.g., “transgender”) enacts epistemological forms of violence that support larger, institutionalized projects of death by exclusion and illegibility.

  • Applying Butlerian Gender Theory to the Transgendered Woman In
    Sex in the Spotlight: Applying Butlerian Gender Theory to the Transgendered Woman in Global Popular Culture Daniel Taylor Project Advisor: Rolf Goebel Honors Senior Project Approval Form 3 - Submit with completed thesis. All signatures must be obtained. 4 Name of candidate: &;/ /b,/ir% Department: 61~$c,n617 ~/dC?P,&~,~~ Approved by: +-a+-o'r martment Chair Date 1 7lUAG- ors Program Director for Honors Council Following the increased acceptance of transgendered women across the globe, the question arises as to what defines a person's gender. In many forms of popular media, this question is being explored, through movies and public personae. Transgendered women are presented in a variety of roles and situations, along various stages of the gender spectrum. According to gender theoretician Judith Butler, the true gender of a person can be measured by their adherence to gender performativity, the solidified gender identity created by repeated, culturally gendered actions. Is performativity enough, with or without an altered physiology, to create a woman, though? By examining the various ways in which transgendered women are presented by cisgendered, or non-transgendered, individuals an the ways transgendered women present themselves, there appears to be a divide between a hazy no from cisgendered individuals and a firm yes from transgendered individuals themselves. One is not born a woman, one becomes one. -Simone de Beauvoir In the entertainment industry, the concept that bigger is better has led to an overly parodied and derided status for many topics.
