Colonialism and Homosexuality
by Robert Aldrich
Colonial lands, which in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century included most of Africa, South and Southeast Asia and the islands of the Pacific and Indian Oceans and the Caribbean, provided a haven for many Europeans whose sexual inclinations did not fit neatly into the constraints of European society. This work is a thorough investigation of the connections of homosexuality and imperialism from the late 1800s until the era of decolonization. Robert Aldrich reconstructs the context of a number of liaisons, including those of famous men such as Cecil Rhodes, E.M Forster or André Gide, and the historical situations which produced both the Europeans and their non-Western lovers. Each of the case studies is a micro-history of a particular colonial situation, a sexual encounter and its wider implications for cultural and political life.
Render Me, Gender Me
by Kath Weston
Render Me, Gender Me challenges comfortable assumptions about gender by weaving Kath Weston's own thought-provoking commentary together with the voices of lesbians from a variety of race and class backgrounds. Nuns, strippers, teachers, carpenters, small business owners, and women in the military all find a place in this spirited account....At the heart of the book are interviews Weston draws upon to give a new twist to contemporary discussions of gender. Among the topics discussed are gender as a multicultural subject, power play in lesbian relationships, lusting after "fluidity," writing gender into lesbian history, the tomboy mystique, the latent tendency to imagine gender as a sliding scale, the impact of job markets and race relations on the way women gender themselves, the guessing games people play when they pin one another down with respect to gender, why "who's the man?" is the wrong question to ask about lesbian couples, and why gender is not about "imitation" or "roles."....In their own words, the women in this provocative work address the ambiguities that make one woman's butch another woman's femme. To quote some interview titles: "In Five Minutes, I May Want to Wear a Dress," "No Self-Respecting Butch Would Have Worn Lingerie in 1972," "I Spit in His Face," and "Little Did I Know She Was a Black Leather Motorcycle Queen."....An important contribution to debates about multiculturalism and "intersections" of gender, race, and class, Render Me, Gender Me will also be a enjoyed by readers interested in contemporary lesbian lives.
