Modification of Transsexualism: A Behavior Modification Program for Conditioning Masculine Behaviors in an Effeminate Boy

Ferrell, Clifford Charles 05 1900 (has links)
Operant conditioning techniques were used to condition male-typical behaviors in an eight-year-old effeminate boy who had been described as transsexual. A probe of toys and activities was administered, which showed a trend toward his choosing feminine toys and activities. The two phases consisted of positive reinforcement of behavior associated with masculinity.

Assumido o local de importância das tecnologias móveis, optou-se pelo Scruff como lugar de análise. Nesse sentido, esta pesquisa foi guiada pela seguinte questão: Quais as construções e educações do corpo afeminado que são produzidas e/ou veiculadas pelo Scruff? A pesquisa foi elaborada com o objetivo geral de investigar as contruções/educações do corpo afeminado no Scruff. Trata se de um estudo qualitativo, descritivo e analítico, realizado através de observação não-participante e entrevista semiestruturada com sete usuários do Scruff. A análise dos dados construídos foi efetuada por meio da análise de conteúdo, a partir da criação de categorias que emergiram da observação e das entrevistas. Constatou-se que, no Scruff, o corpo funciona como uma mercadoria produzida através de pedagogias dos corpos e sexualidades, na qual o músculo se torna o item mais valorativo. Neste processo, para obter sucesso no uso do aplicativo, são exigidos dois comportamentos: a exibição exacerbada da virilidade (mesmo que não exista) e a negação total de traços femininos (mesmo que exista). O resultado é a percepção dos corpos afeminados como um monstro dentro do aplicativo. Surge, então, como resistência a esses comportamentos, que intensificam a hierarquização dos corpos e homossexualidades, a estética monstra. / ABSTRACT This dissertation has as its theme the construction of the gay effeminate body. Assuming the importance of mobile technologies, Scruff was chosen as the place of analysis. This research was guided by the following question: What are the constructions and educations of the effeminate gay body produced and/or transmitted by Scruff? The research was conducted with the general aim of investigating the constructions/educations of the effeminate body in Scruff. This is a qualitative, descriptive and analytical study, conducted through a non-participant observation and a semi-structured interview with seven Scruff users. The analysis of the constructed data was made through content analysis and based on the creation of categories that emerged from the observation and interviews. It has been found that on Scruff the body functions as a commodity produced through the pedagogies of bodies and sexualities in which the muscle becomes the most valued item. In this process, two behaviours are required to achieve successful use of the application: the exaggerated display of virility (even if it does not exist) and the total rejection of female traits (even if it exists). The result is the perception of effeminate bodies as monsters on the app. The monstra aesthetics therefore emerges as resistance to these behaviours, which intensify the hierarchy of bodies and homosexualities.

Marginally Male: Re-Centering Effeminate Male Characters in E. M. Forster’s A Room with a View and Howards End

Clark, Damion 12 May 2005 (has links)
In this thesis I argue that understanding Forster’s effeminate male characters is central to understanding the novels that they appear in. Tibby in Howards End and Cecil in A Room with a View are often viewed as inconsequential figures that provide comic relief and inspire pity. But if, instead of keeping them at the margins, readers put Tibby and Cecil in direct contact and conflict with the dominant themes of gender identity, gendered power structures, and gender equality in these novels, these characters develop a deeper significance that details the fin de siècle’s ever-changing attitudes regarding prescribed gender roles for both men and women. Indeed, by examining Forster’s feminized male characters, one can chart the development of these roles in both the larger world and Forster’s prescription for gender evolution in his novels.
