Abstract

This book examines sexual fantasies and their influence on everyday life through the stories of twenty-two men who introduce themselves as bugchasers, i.e. gay men who eroticize HIV. The author defines bugchasing, charts its history and contexts, and considers how it has changed in the age of internet and PrEP. Through the participants, their experiences and contexts, this text also theorizes about sexual fantasies, seeking to understand how people define sexual fantasies and use the internet as a space to navigate their desires, meet others, and find support. Chapters also consider the practical implications of fantasy, most notably, how fantasies influence men's decisions around HIV prevention and care. This book speaks to renewed interest in both the AIDS crisis and the sociology of everyday life to illustrate how fantasies such as bugchasing appear, evolve, and adapt. This book will be of interest to scholars focused on queer studies, sexuality studies, gender studies, and healthcare. Jaime García-Iglesias holds a PhD in Sociology from the University of Manchester, has a degree in English from the University of Oviedo (Spain) and in Cultural Studies from the University of Nottingham. He has held the prestigious Mildred Baxter Research Fellowship at the University of Edinburgh and has led large-scale projects on sexuality, health and internet use across the UK.

Abstract

This book relates the unique experiences of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer/Questioning (LGBTQ+) people in Australian Pentecostal-Charismatic Christian churches. Grounded in the theoretical contributions of Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, Lewis Coser, and others, the book exposes the discursive ‘battleground’ over the ‘truth’ of sex which underlies the participants’ stories. These rich and complex narratives reveal the stakes of this conflict, manifested in ‘the line’ – a barrier restricting out LGBTQ+ people from full participation in ministry and service. Although some participants related stories of supportive—if typically conservative—congregations where they felt able to live out an authentic, integrated faith, others found they could only leave their formerly close and supportive communities behind, ‘counter-rejecting’ the churches and often the faith that they felt had rejected them.

Abstract

This book presents new research on gender-based violence in Southeast Asia, bringing together varied scholarly work in law, policy, and practice. It enables a greater understanding of violence against women as an international concern, highlighting particular issues that arise in the region. Against a background of international obligations to ensure women's rights through laws and policies that are geared at ending violence against women and girls, this research documents the state failures, individual shame and fear, and societal culture that collectively affects the reporting, investigation, prosecution of perpetrators, and protection of victims. The research explores differing legal mechanisms both internationally, and within nation states, relating to cases of physical and sexual violence. It recognizes the need for functioning mechanisms to ensure women can report their cases safely and be provided with protective and therapeutic services in a way that is systematic, effective, and measurable. Laws and court decisions are analyzed, crisis and safety centers are examined, and in-depth interviews are conducted with actors and NGOs with relevant roles and functions in the mechanism of cases of violence against women. The result is a comprehensive assessment of the incalculable harm it does within Southeast Asian society, and the obstacles it presents for law enforcement. The chapters uncover mechanisms with unique characteristics across Southeast Asia, providing a nuanced understanding of the cultural and social backgrounds, as well as the religious structures, that can both help and hinder suitable frameworks. It is relevant to scholars, policymakers, and practitioners in law, criminology, and gender sociology. "This is a valuable contribution towards empowering the women of South East Asia out of victimhood to valued equality, involvement in governance and leadership through the elimination of violence and discrimination and an excellent resource not just for those working in this field but for those involved in law making, the media and the people of South East Asia." - Professor Felicity Gerry QC, Barrister at Crockett Chambers Melbourne and Libertas Chambers, London, and Professor of Legal Practice at Deakin University and Honorary Professor at Salford University.

Abstract

This book, part of the 'Thinking Gender in Transnational Times' series, examines the rise and impact of 'anti-gender' politics globally. Edited by Aiko Holvikivi, Billy Holzberg, and Tomás Ojeda, it explores the historical and contemporary significance of these movements, which often target feminism and LGBT rights. The collection seeks to broaden the understanding of 'anti-gender' mobilizations, highlighting their connections with nationalism, racism, religion, and capitalism. It discusses the moral panics that fuel anti-feminist and homophobic agendas and examines forms of resistance and solidarity against such backlashes. Aimed at scholars and activists in gender studies, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the intersections between gender, politics, and global structural relations.

Abstract

Dit handboek gaat in op verschillende aspecten binnen de begeleiding en behandeling van daders van seksueel misbruik. Het licht het wettelijk kader toe, met in het bijzonder het seksueel strafrecht alsook theoretische modellen van seksuele delinquentie. Nadien wordt er dieper ingegaan op de diagnostiek en behandeling van delinquenten. Daarbij wordt aandacht besteed aan risicotaxatie en -management, biologische aspecten met farmacologische interventies en verscheidene therapeutische benaderingen. Bijzondere aandacht gaat naar specifieke doelgroepen zoals zwakbegaafden, kinderpornoplegers, vrouwelijke seksueel delinquenten en seksueel delinquenten van allochtone origine. Ook specifieke thema’s komen aan bod, zoals psychopathie bij seksueel delinquenten en autisme en seksueel grensoverschrijdend gedrag. Afgesloten wordt met enkele ethische en deontologische vraagstukken. Dit boek richt zich tot praktijkwerkers, behandelaars, beleidsmakers, juristen en studenten. Het beoogt bij te dragen aan de evidence-based forensische zorg van daders van seksueel misbruik. De vertaling van wetenschappelijke kennis naar de praktijk maakt het tot een uniek instrument voor Vlaanderen en Nederland. Mede door de toelichting van specifieke casussen en praktijkvraagstukken is het zeer geschikt voor de dagelijkse praktijk van elke professional.

Abstract

This book examines how gender and heterosexuality structure the lived experiences of people in living apart together (LAT) relationships in contemporary Chinese society. Using in-depth interview data with Chinese LAT people of different ages, the author explores why they live apart; how they construct and make sense of their everyday family lives and negotiate their gender roles; and how they experience intimacy while being physically apart. This text sheds new insights on non-cohabitating intimate partnerships by bringing together themes of gender, family, intimacy, and relationality. Through looking at people's lived experiences in LAT relationships, it argues that practices of family and intimacy are closely implicated with doing gender, and consequently, that gendered family lives and heterosexuality are reconstructed, rather than deconstructed, in order to reclaim conventional forms of family and gender norms in Chinese social, historical and cultural contexts. This book will be of interest to scholars across Gender and Sexuality Studies as well as Family Studies, in addition to scholars of contemporary Chinese culture and society.
