Documenting how nationalism and colonial modernity reconfigured Chinese discourses on sex between men in the early twentieth century, Wenqing Kang has amassed a wealth of material previously overlooked by scholars, such as the entertainment news and opinion pieces related to same-sex relations published in the tabloid press.Queer Asia.Male homosexualityChinaGay menChinaMale homosexualityGay men306.7662095109041Kang Wenqing712078MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910993973203321Obsession1327775UNINA
