Description

Winner of the 2007 Ruth Benedict Award! A unique collection of writings by both academic and activist scholars on women’s same-sex sexualities and female masculinities in a globalizing Asia. Through richly detailed studies, contributors explore the emergence of contemporary lesbian and butch/femme relationships and communities throughout Asia and their location within the context of nationalist struggles, religious fundamentalism, state gender regimes, and global queer movements.
