Global gay

Autor: Frédéric Martel

Número de Páginas: 310

Una investigación sin precedentes alrededor del mundo sobre la cuestión gay. De una esquina a otra del planeta, la revolución gay está en marcha. De la resistencia contra la represión en China, Cuba o Irán al activismo a favor del matrimonio para parejas del mismo sexo en Estados Unidos y en Europa. De lo underground al mainstream. De la criminalización de la homosexualidad a la criminalización de la homofobia. Durante cinco años Frédéric Martel ha llevado a cabo un estudio sin precedentes en cuarenta y cinco países, desde los más abiertos a los más hostiles, reuniéndose con centenares de actores de esta revolución. A través de ese novedoso prisma, este libro dibuja una verdadera geopolítica de la globalización gay analizando los cambios en los modos de vida, la redefinición del matrimonio, la emancipación paralela de las mujeres y los homosexuales o el impacto decisivo que han supuesto Internet y las redes sociales. Aunque se desarrollen bajo una misma bandera, las singularidades de la vida local y la ausencia de homogeneidad de las comunidades gays de todo el mundo son fascinantes. Martel descubre que la globalización no se traduce necesariamente en...

Identidad gay en construcción

Autor: Porfirio Miguel Hernández Cabrera

Número de Páginas: 345

Mediante una aproximación antropológica al trabajo y la presencia del Grupo Unigay en el Movimiento Lésbico, Gay, Bisexual y Transgenérico (LGBT) de la Ciudad de México a finales de los años noventa del siglo pasado, en este libro se exponen los desarrollos académicos y socioculturales del movimiento gay global y local, y sus contribuciones a la construcción de la identidad gay como una categoría teórica y social legítima en los estudios sobre diversidad sexual y en la sociedad mexicana. El amplio y detallado estudio etnográfico analiza los procesos de asimilación y reproducción del discurso identitario gay local por parte del Grupo Unigay. En específico, se estudian las implicaciones personales y las políticas de la participación en el grupo, en la Marcha del Orgullo LGBT y en los eventos antisida - organizados por los movimientos LGBT y de Lucha contra el Sida -, en los procesos de desclosetamiento y construcción de la identidad gay individual y colectiva de los miembros, y el tipo de relaciones establecidas con dichos movimientos. Las dimensiones etnográfica e histórica de esta obra permiten entender el influjo positivo y social de los grupos activistas en...

Gay Liberation to Campus Assimilation

Autor: Patrick Dilley

Número de Páginas: 276

Association for the Study of Higher Education Outstanding Book Award Winner, 2020 This book outlines the beginning of student organizing around issues of sexual orientation at Midwestern universities from 1969 to the early 1990s. Collegiate organizations were vitally important to establishing a public presence as well as a social consciousness in the last quarter of the twentieth century. During this time, lesbian and gay students struggled for recognition on campuses while forging a community that vacillated between fitting into campus life and deconstructing the sexist and heterosexist constructs upon which campus life rested. The first openly gay and lesbian student body presidents in the United States were elected during this time period, at Midwestern universities; at the same time, pioneering non-heterosexual students faced criticism, condemnation, and violence on campus. Drawing upon interviews, extensive reviews of campus newspapers and yearbooks, andarchival research across the Midwest, Patrick Dilley demonstrates how the early gay campus groups created and provided educational and support services on campus–efforts that later became incorporated into campus services...

Autor: Michael Brown

Número de Páginas: 323

Respuestas a las preguntas difíciles acerca de la homosexualidad y la iglesia con AMOR y VERDAD. ¿Cómo deben responder los cristianos a quienes llevan un estilo de vida gay pero que afirman que aman profundamente al Señor? ¿Cómo les respondemos cuando dicen que la ley más importante es el amor y que este nos obliga a aceptarlos tal como son? ¿Qué hacemos con el argumento de que las leyes del Antiguo Testamento ya no son válidas? ¿Gay y cristiano? responde a estas y otras preguntas con una perspectiva y un conocimiento bíblicos, ofreciendo una guía útil para todos los cristianos que tienen amigos o miembros de la familia que son gays o luchan con su propia sexualidad. No hay duda de que la homosexualidad se ha convertido en un gran problema moral y espiritual para la iglesia en esta generación.

The Carter Presidency and Gay Rights

Autor: Harris Dousemetzis

Número de Páginas: 287

Examining a significant and largely unexplored aspect of Jimmy Carter's presidency (1977-1981), Harris Dousemetzis radically revises the current understanding of this critical period in American political history. By using a wealth of previously unpublished archival material, along with personal interviews with 43 prominent gay rights activists of the time and 12 senior Carter White House aides, this book documents what actually happened during Carter's presidency regarding the development and recognition of gay rights and the efforts of the evangelical right to prevent social reform. Investigating the full range of government actions taken and policies implemented, Carter's personal commitment and support for the movement, as well as the role of activists in bringing about change, this is a significant and original contribution to knowledge about Carter's presidency, the gay rights movement, and American political development. Dousemetzis situates Carter's presidency in its rightful place, as a crucial stage in one of the most dynamic areas of change in recent American politics and political culture. Features a Foreword by Stuart Eizenstat and an Afterword by Lilian Faderman.

The Case for Gay Rights

Autor: David A. J. Richards

Número de Páginas: 272

As Americans wrestle with debates over traditional values, defense of marriage, and gay rights, reason often seems to take a back seat to emotion. In response, legal scholar Richards reflects upon the constitutional and democratic principles--relating to privacy, intimate life, free speech, tolerance, and conscience--that underpin these often heated debates. The distillation of Richards's thirty-year advocacy for the rights of gays and lesbians, his book provides a reflective treatise on basic human rights that touch all of our lives. He places in context two key Supreme Court cases: the 1986 Bowers v. Hardwick decision, and the 2003 Lawrence v. Texas decision which overturned it. Drawing upon his own experiences as a gay man, Richards interweaves personal observations with philosophical, political, judicial, and psychological insights to make a case that gays should be entitled to the same rights and protections that every American enjoys.--From publisher description.

Gay and Gray

Autor: Raymond Mark Berger

Número de Páginas: 240

In the absence of accurate information, American culture has upheld a distorted view of what it means to be an older gay man. Gay and Gray is the first and only scholarly full-length treatment of older gay men in America today. It breaks the stereotype that older gay men are strange, lonely creatures and reveals that most older gay men are well-adjusted to their homosexuality and the aging process.This second edition contains four new chapters that present additional perspectives on the reality of gay aging. Dr. Minnigerode s study shows that older gay men do not perceive themselves as growing old faster than their heterosexual counterparts, and that forty is the age at which most gay men believe that the label young no longer applies--this finding led Berger and other researchers to define older gay men as those over forty. Pope and Schulz confirm Berger s finding that for most older gay men a continuation of sexual activity and sexual enjoyment is the norm. John Grube s paper on the interaction of older gay men with younger gay liberationists explores the cultural divide between today s older gay man and his younger counterpart, filling a gap left in the first edition. And a...

Gay Children Grown Up

Autor: Joseph Harry

Número de Páginas: 296

Describes how many gay men were loners, alienated from their childhood and adolescent peers, and averse to male gender culture during that period of their lives. Out of that early differentness they devised varying solutions to their problems of alienation, some of which proved highly useful during adulthood for educational and occupational advancement ... Through being alienated from conventional male culture they were freed to devise or invent modified gender roles which contain varying mixtures of masculine and feminine culture and which were closer to their individual needs ... There are many and large differences between gay and non-gay men and these difference are seen largely in the area of culture rather than psychology.--From Pref.
