| This volume, with its combination of ethnography in the gay and lesbian communities, and the use of historical sources such as journals and documents, examines issues of gay life in the Japanese fifteen year/Pacific War, addresses lesbian as well as gay issues, examines the interface of queer society with the U.S. occupation, and the international community, contests major interpretations of contemporary queer society, and introduces readers to the development of lesbian and gay communities in postwar Japan. The book provides a historical outline of the development of sexual-minority identity categories and community formation through a detailed analysis of both niche and mainstream publications, including magazines, newspapers, biographies, memoirs, and Internet sites. The material is also augmented with interview data from individuals who have had a long association with Japan's queer cultures. Content: Heteronormativity on the Road to War * Japan's Postwar Perverse Culture * Gay Boys, Blue Boys and Brother Girls * The Development of a Homo Subculture * Toward a Lesbian and Gay Consciousness * Transgender Lives | |
