A psychodynamic view of male homosexuality : oedipal and pre-oedipalWilson, Marianne January 1987 (has links)
Bibliography: leaves 50-54. / For many years psychodynamically oriented research into homosexuality has been a topic for controversy. The "gay" community as well as many more sociologically oriented researchers see any investigation of the psychodynamics of this orientation as implying pathology and therefore contributing to stigmatization of homosexuals. More recently, however, psychoanalytic writers have questioned traditional assumptions and pointed to a need to look at the diversity of homosexual adaptations. Of interest in a more recent perspective is Socarides' (1979) classification, distinguishing between pre-oedipal and oedipal types of homosexuals. This paper argues that while generalization about "homosexuals" is impossible, a psychodynamic approach is useful in looking at the meaning and adaptive function of the homosexual orientation in each individual client and thus understand it in relation to personality organization and behaviour. A brief summary of psychoanalytic theory of male homosexuality is given with an emphasis on Socarides' classification. Two case studies are presented in an attempt to illustrate the usefulness of a psychodynamic approach and of the oedipal - pre-oedipal distinction. It is suggested that this distinction be seen more as a continuum of varying levels of ego-functioning.

Talking pictures: a creative utilization of structural and aesthetic profiles from narrative music videos and television commercials in a non-spoken film textIngs, Welby Unknown Date (has links)
This thesis is about storytelling. It is presented in three parts, a major output with two supporting components. The first and primary section is the short film. The second is an exhibition of images, props, and environments created for the work. The third is the exegesis. Situated as creative practice, the project tests and develops structural and aesthetic hypotheses in the creation of a non-spoken film text. These hypotheses are shaped by considerations from two areas.The first is design for narrative music video. An analysis of selected texts leads to a creative reconsideration of the role and profile of imagery, space, time, sound, enigma, closure, and narrative voice. The second area is typography. Reflecting on the anti-language, bogspeak, and the culture that has given rise to its development, the thesis develops inaudible typographical voices that operate as narrative contributions to the film.These two areas of consideration support a unique way of telling stories. This is significant because emerging uses of short film now take these texts beyond the theatre. They are marketed as commercially available stories in their own right. As distribution companies are formatting them on DVDs, viewers are seeing these stories not once, but many times. It is useful therefore, for the design of such texts to consider alternative methods of narration that might work to preserve the durability and complexity of their stories as they unravel over repeated screenings.

(Re)existindo à homofobia : narrativas de histórias de vida de cis-homens gays no Município de Cascavel-PR /Santos, Ronaldo Adriano Alves dos. January 2019 (has links)
Orientador: Fernando Silva Teixeira Filho / Banca: Angela Aparecida Donini / Banca: Leonardo Lemos de Souza / Resumo: No presente trabalho, tenho o objetivo de apresentar um percurso narrativo através das experiências e histórias vividas e compartilhadas por cis-homens gays que assumem e/ou vivenciam suas homossexualidades no município de Cascavel-PR. Nesse percurso, pretendo discutir as experiências e os impactos das diferentes manifestações da homofobia em suas intersecções e tensionamentos com as idiossincrasias que marcam o enredo de cada uma das histórias dos participantes da pesquisa. Para tanto, adoto como referencial teórico os estudos de gênero e feministas que me possibilitam pensar as homossexualidades e a própria vivência da homofobia como fenômenos plurais impossíveis de serem submetidos a categorias universalizantes e essencialistas. Nesse sentido, busco discutir e apresentar a homofobia enquanto um conceito "guarda-chuva". Uma categoria política, conceitual e analítica que possibilita traduzir o cotidiano de violências, mais ou menos explícitas, que constituem e afetam todas as pessoas, e especialmente as pessoas LGBT, margeando e (de)limitando as formas de nos relacionarmos social, política, afetiva e sexualmente. Reconhecendo o caráter localizado, contextualizado, (de)limitado e parcial desse empreendimento de pesquisa e visando alcançar os objetivos traçados adoto como "método-processo de investigação" as narrativas de histórias de vida de seis cis-homens gays, dentre os quais me incluo. Por meio dessa pista metodológica, pude estabelecer uma necessária e indissociável... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo) / Abstract: This dissertation aims to present a narrative pathway through experiences and stories lived and shared by cisgender gay men that assume and/or live their homosexuality in Cascavel city, Paraná state. In this pathway, I intend to discuss experiences and impacts from the different homophobia manifestations in their intersections and tensions with idiosyncrasies that are remarkable on the story of each participant of this research. For this purpose, I adopt as a theorical reference gender and feminist studies, which allow me to consider homosexualities and the homophobia experience itself as plural phenomena, that are impossible to be submitted to universalising, essentialist and static categories. Therefore, I aim to discuss and present homophobia as an "umbrella" concept, a political, conceptual and analytical category, that allows to render the daily violence, explicit or not, that constitutes and affect all the people, especially LGBT ones, creating margins and delimitating the social, aesthetic, political, affective and sexual ways to relate to each other. Recognizing the localized, (de)limited, contextualized and partial character of this research, I adopted as an "investigation method-process" the life stories narratives of six cisgender gay men, in which I include myself. The choice of this "method-process" was fundamental, since it made possible to be linked to and stablish an approximation with the research participants, both undeniable elements to accomplish the...

HIV related sexual risk behaviors among men who have sex with men in China: a cohort and randomized controlled study. / 中國男男性接觸者高危性行為的前瞻性隊列及臨床對照試驗研究 / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / Zhongguo nan nan xing jie chu zhe gao wei xing xing wei de qian zhan xing dui lie ji lin chuang dui zhao shi yan yan jiuJanuary 2011 (has links)
Discussion. The epidemic of HIV/STD among MSM is severe, and the prevalence of risk sexual behaviors was at a high level among MSM in China. The risk factors for HIV/STD and factors associated with DAI reported in this study give some insights towards designing relevant prevention programs. The simplicity and feasibility of our effective intervention, enhanced VCT, makes it possible for this to be incorporated into standard VCT procedures. Further translational research is needed to investigate its effectiveness in the real-world setting. / Introduction. Men who have sex with men (MSM) have become the main group for HIV transmission in China in 2009. There have been many epidemiological cross-sectional studies targeting MSM in China in recent years. These provide limited data compared with cohort studies, which can describe the rate at which HIV/STD are spreading in a target population. Moreover, there is a dearth of intervention studies which are theory-based with rigorous research methodology in China. Last but not least, research is needed on sexual behaviors and their determinants, including cognitions from health behavioral theories, event-specific factors, etc. / Objectives. This study investigated the prevalence and incidence of HIV/STD, as well as their associated risk factors among MSM in Nanjing, China. It also explored the prevalence of unprotected anal sex (UAI) and the associated factors, including cognitions from health behavioral theories and event-specific factors. In addition, this is also one of the first studies to examine the efficacy of a randomized control trial (RCT) designed intervention, to use enhanced voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) to reduce UAI among MSM in China. / Results. The RDS-adjusted HIV, syphilis and HCV prevalence were respectively 7.3%, 14.4% and 0.2% at baseline. Of the 397 MSM who were found to be HIV seronegative at baseline, 286 (72.0%) retested at Month 6. HIV, syphilis and HCV incidence were respectively 5.12, 7.58 and 0 per 100 person-years (PY). Recruiting male sex partners mostly at saunas was the risk factor associated with being HIV seropositive at baseline (OR=3.84) and undergoing HIV/syphilis seroconversion at Month 6 (RR=2.351RR=6.72). In the RCT study, participants in the Intervention Group reported significantly less risk than those in the Control Group (UAI with any male sex partners: 48.4% vs. 66.7%;UAI with regular male sex partners: 52.2% vs. 68.9%) at Month 6. Furthermore, Perceived Behavior Control showed a significant association with DAI with both regular (AOR=0.42) and casual partners (AOR=O.73). / Subjects and Methods. A cohort study and randomized control trial were conducted. Out of 416 MSM approached by respondent driven sampling (RDS), 397 HIV negative participants were recruited to the HIV/syphilis/HCV cohort, and they were invited to return for a follow-up visit at Month 6. A subsample from the baseline cohort consisting of 307 MSM, was randomly assigned to either the Intervention Group (enhanced VCT) or the Control Group (standard VCT). Evaluation was conducted at Month 6. Both baseline and Month 6 visits consisted of VCT service and interviewing. Statistical methods such as Chi-square test, logistic regression and Poisson regression were used in this study. / Hao, Chun. / Adviser: Joseph TF Lan. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-04, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2011. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 166-179). / Electronic reproduction.
