  • 'Maiden Seme' and Sajiao
    HACETTEPE UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF COMMUNICATION JOURNAL OF CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN: 2148-970X www.momentjournal.org 2021, 8(1): 106-123 DOI: https://doi.org/10.17572/mj2021.1.106123 Articles (Theme > Literature and Masculinities) NONNORMATIVE MASCULINITY IN DANMEI LITERATURE: ‘MAIDEN SEME’ AND SAJIAO Aiqing Wang1 Abstract Masculinity in contemporary China can be embodied by myriads of works featuring male-male same-sex intimacy and eroticism, which fall into a genre dubbed as danmei ‘addicted to beauty; indulgence in beauty’, aka Boys Love (BL). As a marginalised yet increasingly visible subculture, danmei writing has attracted legions of female producers/consumers, who are (self-)referred to as ‘rotten girls’. The female-oriented fiction is overwhelmingly marked by a conspicuous dichotomy differentiating seme (top) from uke (bottom) roles, and a prodigious amount of narratives concern feminisation of uke characters, motivated by the prevailing ‘soft masculinity’. Nonetheless, readers also delight in a subcategory of danmei featured by shaonü gong ‘maiden/adolescent-girl seme’ manifesting epicene demeanour and conducting sajiao which denotes playing cute/winsome/petulant or performing pettishness/coquettish. The sajiao acts of semes indicate authorial personae and the ‘cuteness’ youth culture, especially the ‘paradoxical cuteness’ integrating masculinity and femininity as well as cross-dressing and cross-gender performance. Furthermore, seme characterisation entailing enfeebled virility enables female readers to challenge 1 Aiqing Wang Lecturer, University of Liverpool, Department of Modern Languages and Cultures, [email protected], ORCID: 0000-0001-7546-4959 Date of Submission: 05.01.2021 | Date of Acceptance: 22.03.2021 © Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2021.

  • TWO CASES of CHINESE INTERNET STUDIES a Thesis
    TWO CASES OF CHINESE INTERNET STUDIES A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Yuan Liang August 2019 © 2019 Yuan Liang ABSTRACT This thesis consists of two parts. Chapter 1 concentrates on one genre of Chinese online literature and its relationship with gender and sexuality. It aims at exploring the diversity of Chinese danmei fiction and relating it to the gendered self- identifications of young and educated women in contemporary China. It argues that while danmei fiction in China creates a channel of gender and sexual expressions, it also reflects the difficulties and contradictions that women encounter and experience when they try to place themselves into the current social and economic structure. Chapter 2 studies Chris Marker’s documentary Sunday in Peking and its reception in contemporary China. It closely examines the internet reviews on a Chinese website from the perspectives of idealization and exoticization, and contends that both the filmmaker and his Chinese audiences are under the influences of stereotypes that their society, culture or ideology impose on them. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Yuan Liang was born and raised in Chengdu, China. She started her undergraduate studies at Beijing Normal University in 2013 and earned her bachelor’s degree in Chinese Language and Literature in 2017. In the same year, she joined the M.A. program in Asian Studies at Cornell University. She is expected to receive her master’s degree in August 2019. After graduation, she will become a Ph.D.

  • Transgender Women in Malaysia, in the Context of HIV and Islam: a Qualitative Study of Stakeholders’ Perceptions Sima Barmania1,2,4* and Syed Mohamed Aljunid1,3
    Barmania and Aljunid BMC International Health and Human Rights (2017) 17:30 DOI 10.1186/s12914-017-0138-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transgender women in Malaysia, in the context of HIV and Islam: a qualitative study of stakeholders’ perceptions Sima Barmania1,2,4* and Syed Mohamed Aljunid1,3 Abstract Background: Globally, one of the key groups considered to be at high risk of acquiring HIV are transgender women, often a marginalised group. In the Malaysian context there has been a scarcity of published research relating to transgender women, a sensitive issue in a Muslim majority country, where Islam plays an influential role in society. Furthermore, there has been a paucity of research relating to how such issues relate to HIV prevention in transgender women in Malaysia. Thus, the aim of this study is to explore the attitudes of stakeholders involved in HIV prevention policy in Malaysia towards transgender women, given the Islamic context. Methods: In-depth interviews were undertaken with stakeholders involved in HIV prevention, Ministry of Health, Religious Leaders and People Living with HIV, including transgender women. Thirty five participants were recruited using purposive sampling from June to December 2013 within Kuala Lumpur and surrounding vicinities. Interviews were in person, audiotaped, transcribed verbatim and used a framework analysis. Results: Five central themes emerged from the qualitative data; Perceptions of Transgender women and their place in Society; Reaching out to Transgender Women; Islamic doctrine; ‘Cure’, ‘Correction’ and finally, Stigma and Discrimination. Discussion: Islamic rulings about transgenderism were often the justification given by participants chastising transgender women, whilst there were also more progressive attitudes and room for debate.

My dissertation adds a unique perspective to the sociological literature on the global gender equality regime in that it focuses on the social construction of gender equality policy in the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) of the UN. The guiding research question for my project is ″How is gender equality policy socially constructed in UN’s CSW?″ My goal is to unpack some of the processes and politics of knowledge and norm-production in the CSW in order to explore ways in which women and men around the world may be better able to shape and influence global gender equality policy and utilize it in their national contexts.

  • From “Telling Transgender Stories” to “Transgender People Telling Stories”: Transgender Literature and the Lambda Literary Awards, 1997-2017
    FROM “TELLING TRANSGENDER STORIES” TO “TRANSGENDER PEOPLE TELLING STORIES”: TRANSGENDER LITERATURE AND THE LAMBDA LITERARY AWARDS, 1997-2017 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Andrew J. Young May 2018 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Dustin Kidd, Advisory Chair, Sociology Dr. Judith A. Levine, Sociology Dr. Tom Waidzunas, Sociology Dr. Heath Fogg Davis, External Member, Political Science © Copyright 2018 by Andrew J. Yo u n g All Rights Res erved ii ABSTRACT Transgender lives and identities have gained considerable popular notoriety in the past decades. As part of this wider visibility, dominant narratives regarding the “transgender experience” have surfaced in both the community itself and the wider public. Perhaps the most prominent of these narratives define transgender people as those living in the “wrong body” for their true gender identity. While a popular and powerful story, the wrong body narrative has been criticized as limited, not representing the experience of all transgender people, and valorized as the only legitimate identifier of transgender status. The dominance of this narrative has been challenged through the proliferation of alternate narratives of transgender identity, largely through transgender people telling their own stories, which has the potential to complicate and expand the social understanding of what it means to be transgender for both trans- and cisgender communities. I focus on transgender literature as a point of entrance into the changing narratives of transgender identity and experience. This work addresses two main questions: What are the stories being told by trans lit? and What are the stories being told about trans literature? What follows is a series of separate, yet linked chapters exploring the contours of transgender literature, largely through the context of the Lambda Literary Awards over the past twenty years.

  • Mahkamah Akan Memutuskan Hak Golongan Transgender Undang-Undang Tempatan Menggalakkan Diskriminasi, Keganasan
    Untuk Sebaran Segera ***Untuk menonton video utama dan memuat turun rakaman asal: http://youtu.be/Wnl8RVYz9bw Malaysia: Mahkamah akan memutuskan Hak Golongan Transgender Undang-Undang Tempatan Menggalakkan Diskriminasi, Keganasan (Bangkok, 13 Mei 2014) – Mak nyah di Malaysia telah memfailkan satu kes mahkamah pertama bagi menyemak semula undang-undang yang melarang mereka daripada mengekspresikan identiti jantina mereka, kata Human Rights Watch (HRW) hari ini. Pada 22 Mei 2014, Mahkamah Rayuan Putrajaya dijangka untuk mendengar satu semakan kehakiman tentang keselarian undang-undang tersebut dengan Perlembagaan Persekutuan. Seperti mana yang kita sedia maklum, apa-apa undang-undang yang bercanggah dengan Perlembagaan Persekutuan seharusnya tidak boleh diguna pakai, memandang Perlembagan Persekutuan ialah undang- undang tertinggi di Malaysia. Tiga Mak Nyah dari Negeri Sembilan telah meminta mahkamah untuk membatalkan sebuah undang-undang negeri yang melarang “mana-mana lelaki daripada memakai pakaian wanita atau menyerupai wanita di mana-mana tempat awam.” Undang-undang ini telah digunakan berulang kali untuk menangkap Mak Nyah. Ketiga-tiga pempetisyen, walaupun mengenal pasti diri mereka sebagai perempuan, tetapi masih dikategorikan sebagai "lelaki" dalam kad pengenalan kebangsaan mereka, telah ditahan semata-mata kerana mereka berpakaian pakaian yang dianggap oleh pegawai-pegawai agama sebagai pakaian "perempuan." “Di bawah undang-undang sebegini yang mendiskriminasi Mak Nyah di peringkat negeri, Mak Nyah di Malaysia menghadapi risiko
