The article outlines the reception of antiquity by the gay movement in the German-speaking world from its beginnings in the early 19th C. to the movement’s gradual detachment from ancient Greek myths. The Swiss author Heinrich Hößli initiated this process in 1836 with a book about the „male love of the Greeks“. The first high point of the emancipation movement was reached with the sexual-political and sexological work of Magnus Hirschfeld, who worked as a „doctor for nervous and psychological ailments“ in Berlin and developed a non-pathologizing theory of homosexuality from 1896 onwards. The modernization push achieved after the First World War, which made it possible to largely dispense with ancient references, is hinted at with the mention of the discussion about a „new type of femininity“ in 1923.

This article asks „What is gay sexuality?“ and attempts an answer by starting from literary formulations of gay sexuality. It identifies two central traits in literary formulations: literary texts formulate gay sexuality in proximity to death and in figures of transgression. This constellation is interpreted by reference to the history of modern homosexuality and to the psychoanalytic concept of jouissance. The article’s answer to the question is: Gay sexuality is that sexuality in which jouissance is articulated. In conclusion, the article discusses the political consequences of this answer.

Der Beitrag diskutiert das Coming-out von schwulen Männern (in der gegenwärtigen westlichen Gesellschaft) und möchte aufzeigen, dass ein Coming-out über eine „neutrale Beschreibung“ des sexuellen Begehrens hinausgeht. Anhand von narrativen Interviewsmit geouteten Männern sowie Theorien vor allem aus dem Bereich des Poststrukturalismus und der Queer Theory wird herausgearbeitet, dass Subjektivierung ein wesentlicher Bestandteil eines Coming-outs ist und dieser Umstand dazu beiträgt, dass ein Coming-out mit Differenzierungs-, Hierarchisierungs- und Normalisierungsmechanismen einhergeht. Mit Blick auf die Subjektwerdung innerhalb eines Coming-outs kann deutlich gemacht werden, dass Homosexualität gegenwärtig nicht als „gleichwertig“ oder „gewöhnlich“ wahrgenommen wird und ein Coming-out auch in einer sogenannten liberalen Gesellschaft mit Machtverhältnissen verbunden ist. Der Fokus der Studie ist dabei mit einem ausschließlichen Blick auf das männliche homosexuelle (schwule) Coming-out sehr eng gefasst.

Die Forschung über queere Jugendliche ist ein wachsendes Forschungsfeld. Die zunehmende Befragung von Jugendlichen über ihre Lebenssituation macht es möglich, ihren Alltag konkreter darzustellen, politische Handlungsempfehlungen abzuleiten und ihre Perspektive als relevante Erfahrung zu etablieren. Gleichzeitig gehen mit diesem neuen Interesse Bedarfe der ethischen Reflexion einher. Eine Forschung zu queeren Jugendlichen agiert innerhalb von Dilemmata: der Be- und Entlastung von Jugendlichen; der Fixierung und Eröffnung von Identitätskonzepten; der Ausblendung und sozialpädagogischen Problematisierung; sowie der Verfügbarmachung für eine heteronormative Gesellschaft und deren Veränderung. Basierend auf der Praxis von Forschungsprojekten eröffnet der Beitrag Fragen für deren Reflexion und Qualitätssicherung. Er regt einen Diskurs darüber an, was die Forschung zu queeren Jugendlichen kann, soll, muss und darf.

Coming-out vor allem Jugendlicher erfährt gegenwärtig eine Aufwertung und Hervorhebung in Familien, Medien, Politik und Forschung. Öffentlich als homosexuell sichtbar zu sein, wird dabei zur Bedingung eines authentischen Selbst und glücklichen Lebens stilisiert. Der vorliegende Artikel rekonstruiert und theoretisiert die für junge Schwule und Lesben relevanten Erfahrungen. Die Sekundäranalyse von 19 problemzentrierten Interviews zeigt, dass das Coming-out als problematische Dramatisierung und unausweichlicher Druck interpretiert wird. Eine Strategie des ‚I _ gay‘, das heißt der Zurückweisung der identitären Relation zwischen homosexueller Sichtbarkeit und dem eigenen Selbst, wird vor diesem Hintergrund in ihrer subjektiven Bedeutung und in ihren politischen Implikationen diskutiert.

This paper presents results of the research project „Gleichgeschlechtliche Lebensweisen und Selbstbestimmung im Alter“ (GLESA) by the Alice Salomon University of Applied Sciences, Berlin, and the Berlin School of Economics and Law concerning the needs of gay and lesbian elders regarding long-term care. The main focus is on the expectations and perceptions of long-term care (facilities) of the interviewees living in a gay housing project in Berlin, Germany. The study is based on 26 interviews: with eleven gay, one lesbian and three heterosexual tenants – two of them lived in a shared community with long-term care services. Another eleven interviews were conducted with experts (five cis-female, four cis-male and two transgender) working in social and health services (social workers, carers and psychologists). The data was gathered via problem-centered interviews (Witzel 2000) and analysed with Mayrings‘ (2007) qualitative content analysis. Long-term care aspects were one out of five dimensions of the analysis. The study illustrates the discomfort of LGB elders regarding regular care services. The interviewees prefer LGB(T*I)-friendly facilities, in part because they demonstrate overt signs of diversity and promise a high competence of LGB(T*I) personnel in terms of self-determination, awareness, visibility and knowledge about LGBT*I communities. Finally, the authors advocate enhancing the concept of culture-sensitive long-term care according to diversity-sensitive aspects. A better understanding of diversity will help to better consider individuality and biographies in long-term care (facilities) and to support the social inclusion of LGB(T*I) elders in need of care.

Ritualisiertes schwulenfeindliches Verhalten ist unter männlichen Jugendlichen weit verbreitet. Auf männliche Homosexualität reagieren Jungen oft mit Ignoranz, Ausgrenzung und/oder gewalttätigem Verhalten. Daran anknüpfend diskutiert der vorliegende Artikel auf der Basis von Gruppendiskussionen, inwieweit es in männlichen Peerkulturen möglich ist, Schwul-Sein zu legitimieren und darauf nicht mit Stigmatisierung und Ausgrenzung, sondern mit Aufgeschlossenheit und Akzeptanz zu reagieren. Dass die Art, ob die Jungen in einer Peergroup oder Clique vergemeinschaftet sind, Einfluss auf ihren Umgang mit männlichen Homosexuellen hat, wird veranschaulicht. Unsere Forschung zeigt, dass in diesem Anerkennungsprozess Ambivalenzen bei männlichen Peerkulturen zu generieren sind, die mit Verunsicherung und stetigem Hinterfragen der eigenen männlichen Rolle und Identität einhergehen.

This paper presents a translation of the kyōgen play Rōmusha based on the text from the Toraakibon of the Ōkura (mid seventeenth century) school. It features the role of a boy acolyte within the homoerotic tradition of Buddhist temples in premodern Japan. Those boys were usually termed chigo. While there is already a considerable amount of research done on the historic circumstances and literary conventions in other genres, their appearance in kyōgen theater may add fruitful insights and also shed some light on their function in the comical arts. In the recent years Rōmusha has been performed again several times and it offers a vivid, realistic and erotic atmosphere which is rare to be seen in classical kyōgen. The paper aims to illustrate the structure of the play. While the focus is on the role of the chigo, comical aspects of the drama, references to nō theatre and different interpretations and performance practices will also be mentioned.

Looking at Hubert Fichte's novel Explosion against the backdrop of Queer Studies, this paper proposes that Fichte develops a new kind of queer literature which shows non-heterosexual practices in more detail than in other forms of fiction. By narrating not only a homosexual life, but also bisexual practices Fichte transcends a mere homosexual poetics. Besides, his work can be understood as being in a dialogue with its time, i.e. the ongoing coming to terms with the Nazi past, but also the decisive break with the restrictive sexual politics of the Nazis. Fichte's use of typical methods of documentary literature can be directly traced back to these historical circumstances. His style was especially popular among gay communities for they preferred Fichte's direct representation of sexual material over for example Thomas Mann's covert remarks on the topic. Nonetheless, Fichte's novel can be clearly characterised as being literary. Drawing on Judith Butler's concept of performativity, this paper argues that Fichte's narration of sexual identities also stresses a constant development rather than fixed and inborn traits. It is the manifestation of sexuality in all its varied forms rather than dualistic labels that shapes real lives. In the course of his relationship with Irma, Fichte's protagonist reflects how his changing homosexual interactions influence his heterosexual partnership. Recognising that his bisexual activity is a source of potential distress but also one of enrichment, Fichte's protagonist raises a voice for all those of his readers who do not subject themselves to the ›rules‹ of heteronormativity. This paper will therefore investigate the relevant passages and propose a queer reading of Fichte's novel Explosion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
