Tysta skrik, krig eller kamp? : Islam och sexualitet i dokumentärfilmen <em>A Jihad for Love</em> analyserat utifrån ett intersektionellt genusperspektiv.Blomqvist, Anna January 2008 (has links)
<p>In this thesis I have done a discourse analysis of the documentary movie <em>A Jihad for Love</em>. <em>A Jihad for Love </em>came out 2007 and is directed by Parvez Sharma. The documentary movie is about homosexual Muslims and their jihad, struggle, for love and to be accepted in a world where they are barely recognized as a group. My aim of the thesis was to see how the movie portrays the persons who are in the film and their relationship to Islam and who gets access to the religion. I have also analyzed if Islam can be used to strengthen the sexual identity or if it works in the opposite way. I have used the theoretical instrument of intersectionality and religious proximity with a gender perspective with focus on sexuality and religion to analyze my material.</p><p>My conclusions of the thesis are that the men in the movie are often more portrayed as active subjects that can use the religion as a tool to strengthen the sexuality. The women are more portrayed as inactive objects that cannot use the religion to strengthen their sexual identity because of different power axes, like gender and sexuality, which collide and with each other. Another conclusion is that men have a higher grade of religious proximity which makes them closer to God, whereas the women traditionally don’t have the same closeness to God and cannot therefore have the same power in the religious hierarchy.</p><p> </p>
