It examines the deployment of sexuality over the past five decades in Taiwan by paying particular attention to male homosexuality and prostitution. In addition to literary and film material, the study engages a number of relevant legal cases and media reports. Through Hans Huang's primary research and historical investigations, the book not only illuminates the construction of gendered sexual identities in Taiwanese culture but also, in a reflexive fashion, critiques the culture that produces them. 410 0$aQueer Asia. 606 $aGays$zTaiwan 606 $aGays in literature 606 $aQueer theory$xPolitical aspects$zTaiwan 606 $aMale homosexuality$xPolitical aspects$zTaiwan 606 $aFeminism$xPolitical aspects$zTaiwan 615 0$aGays 615 0$aGays in literature. 615 0$aQueer theory$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aMale homosexuality$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aFeminism$xPolitical aspects 676 $a306.7660951249 700 $aHuang$b Hans Tao-Ming$01713355 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809299603321 996 $aQueer politics and sexual modernity in Taiwan$94106286 997 $aUNINA
