Download or read book Sissies and Tomboys written by Matthew Rottnek and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1999-05 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1973, homosexuality was officially depathologized with a revision in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Psychiatry. In 1980, a new diagnosis appeared: Gender Identity Disorder of Childhood (GID). The shift separated gender from sexuality, while it simultaneously reinforced traditional concepts of "male" and "female" and made it possible for cross-gendered behavior and/or identification to be deemed psychiatric illness. What is the difference then between a child being called a sissy on the playground and being labeled with a disorder in a psychiatric hospital? Combining theory and personal narrative, this volume interrogates the meaning of "the normal" that pervades the literature on GID and investigates the theoretical underpinnings of the diagnosis. Sissies and Tomboys considers how the stigma of illness influences a child's development and what homosexual childhood, freed from the constraints of conventionally acceptable gender expression, might look like.

Book excerpt: This anthropological volume examines Latin American male homosexualities in Spanish-speaking, Brazilian, and indigenous societies from theoretical, literary, ethnographic, ethnohistorical, and lexicological perspectives. Focusing on issues of family, society, culture, politics, economy and ethnicity, the contributors explore homosexual practices in pre-Columbian indigenous societies and in colonial and modern Latin America. Wide-ranging issues in this volume include homosexual categorization, machismo and homosexuality, the "activo-pasivo" cultural dichotomy, the gay image in Chicano fiction, male homosexuality and Afro-Brazilian possession cults, the gay movement and human rights, and others. The twenty-two articles and essays in this volume demonstrate that Latin American homosexuality is complex and diverse across history, nationalities, and ethnicities. In addition to Stephen O. Murray, contributors are Manuel Arboleda G., beverly N. Chiñas, Wayne R. Dynes, Peter Fry, Paul Kutsche, Luiz Mott, Richard G. Parker, Karl J. Reinhardt, Clark L. Taylor, and Frederick L. Whitman.
