La controversia entre homosexualidad y familia: el caso cubano
2004
El presente artículo constituye un resumen de la tesis Homosexualidad y familia: acoso y simetrías que el autor presentara para obtener el título de máster en Sociología por la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona y la Universidad de La Habana. En la misma nos propusimos caracterizar algunos aspectos de la relación entre homosexualidad y familia en el contexto cubano. Para ello, nos centramos en describir los aspectos relativos a la «vida gay» en Ciudad de La Habana y en determinar el vínculo establecido entre homosexualidad y familia por un grupo de jóvenes homosexuales varones residentes en esta ciudad. The present article constitutes a summary of the thesis Homosexuality and family: harassm…
Grazoprevir/elbasvir for the immediate treatment of recently acquired HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection in MSM.
2020
Abstract Background In Europe, increases in HCV infection have been observed over the last two decades in MSM, making them a key population for recently acquired HCV. Alternative combinations of direct-acting antiviral agents against early HCV infection need to be assessed. Patients and methods In this pilot trial, MSM with recently acquired genotype 1 or 4 HCV infection were prospectively included and received 8 weeks of oral grazoprevir 100 mg and elbasvir 50 mg in a fixed-dose combination administered once daily. The primary endpoint was sustained virological response evaluated 12 weeks after the end of treatment (EOT) (SVR12). Secondary endpoints were the virological characterization of…
Gay athlete's experiences in sport and exercise domains in Finland
2013
Sport is perceived to be one of the last fortresses of heteronormative and homonegative attitudes that cause psychological and social issues for LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) athletes, especially in their self-confidence and self-concept. Furthermore, these negative mindsets challenge LGBT individuals' participation in organized sport and physical activity. To offer effective consulting services, it is vital for sport psychologists to be aware of the issues that LGBT athletes might struggle with throughout their sport careers. Adopting 'queer theory' as a theoretical framework, this study strives to understand a gay male athlete's experiences in sport and physical activity …

Homot ja heterot Suomi24:ssä: analyysi digitaalisista diskursseista
2018
Artikkelissani tarkastelen Suomi24-keskustelupalstan homouteen ja heterouteen liittyviä toistuvia diskursseja. Analyysi on toteutettu korpusavusteisena diskurssintutkimuksena (CADS), jossa suureen dataan perustuva tilastollinen avainsana-analyysi nostaa esiin suomalaisen yhteiskunnan sosiaalisesti jaetut diskurssit. Tulokset yhtäältä tukevat aiempia media-analyyseissä tehtyjä havaintoja voimakkaista affekteista ja vihapuheesta sekä homoseksuaalisuuden politisoitumisesta ja uskonnollistumisesta. Toisaalta se myös paljastaa homodiskurssien henkilöitymisen tai liittymisen tiettyihin henkilöryhmiin ja paikkoihin. Heterodiskurssit puolestaan eroavat selvästi homodiskursseista: niille on tyypilli…
Panorama actual del pensamiento español en torno al género y los derechos
2011
RESUMEN Este trabajo muestra el enfrentamiento entre dos modelos que, para solucionar la cuestión femenina, ofrecen su particular definición del sujeto. Desde la posición denominada de la Igualdad de género, el sujeto se define por una esencia mínima común al ser humano, abierta al diálogo y referente a unas cualidades humanas conectadas con la dignidad. Se añade la absoluta compatibilidad de esa esencia igual con las diferencias de todos los individuos entre sí. Por su parte, el modelo que, paradójicamente, se ha denominado Ideología de género afirma una esencia humana prefijada por naturaleza y completamente indisponible. Junto a ella, se entiende la existencia de dos tipos de persona o i…
Litorali dell'autofinzione: spigolature lacaniane
2017
Questo articolo intende applicare gli strumenti teorici della psicoanalisi lacaniana allo studio del romanzo autofinzionale. Si tratta, per un verso, di operare una lettura del romanzo "L'étreinte" di Philippe Vilain al livello del significante; per un altro, di cogliere le implicazioni del Simbolico in vari romanzi dello scrittore omosessuale marocchino Rachid O. L'articolo intende inoltre formulare una riflessione sul valore della critica letteraria per Jacques Lacan e sul come tale critica debba concepirsi nella logica dell'oltre-Edipo. This article aims to apply the theoretical tools of Lacanian psychoanalysis to the study of the self-fictional novel. On the one hand, it is a matter of …
A sociology of queer implications? Methodological inquietudes and ethical involvements in the study of non-normative sexualities
2018
The article represents an epistemological and methodological enquiry on the use of qualitative research methods, and specifically ethnographical practice, in the study of non-normative sexualities. It will take mainly into account a series of ethnographic observations of an ongoing research project on male sex work in southern Italy.
The association of the availability of offline gay scenes and national tolerance of homosexuality with gay and bisexual men's sexual online dating be…
2020
Abstract Based on a uses and gratifications perspective on media use, in this paper I analyze the important role played by dating sites for men who have sex with men (MSM) in their efforts to find offline sexual partners. To do so, I conducted two quantitative surveys. In Study 1, I compared the online dating behavior of 12,328 MSM from Germany and Austria with the availability of offline sexual gay venues and how frequently MSM visit such venues. In Study 2, I used a global sample of 30,789 MSM to compare the frequency and recency of online dates of men living in countries that support male homosexuality and those in countries that criminalize it. The findings suggest that MSM-specific dat…
