Abstract

Many of the struggles and advances in LGBT+ rights are fought in domestic spaces. However, the political and emotional complexity of the home in relation to gender and sexual dissidence has received limited attention. This research aims to explore the discrimination and coping strategies of young LGBT+ youth in their family and personal home. Through a qualitative methodology, I examine how 27 LGBT+ youth from Bages (Catalonia) experience different home spaces according to their age, gender, and sexual orientation. The results show adultism and pressure to conform to cisheteronormative expectations at the family home. However, these norms dissolve in the personal home, allowing the free development of their LGBT+ identities. The study reveals the resistance and transformation strategies they use to tackle cisheteronormativity, highlighting home as a place of politics, negotiation, power, and complex emotions.

抵制和超越家庭中的顺异性恋规范：LGBT+ 青少年的积极策略

LGBT+ 权利的许多斗争和进步都是在家庭空间中进行的。然而，家庭中与性别和性异见有关的政治和情感复杂性受到的关注却很有限。本研究旨在探讨 LGBT+ 青年在家庭和个人住宅中受到的歧视和应对策略。通过定性方法，我研究了来自巴格（加泰罗尼亚）的 27 名 LGBT+ 青年如何根据其年龄、性别和性取向体验不同的家庭空间。研究结果表明，在家庭中，存在着成人化的倾向和压力，使他们不得不遵从顺应异性恋规范的期望。然而，这些规范在个人家庭中消失了，使他们的 LGBT+ 身份得以自由发展。研究揭示了他们为应对顺式异性恋而采取的抵制和转变策略，强调了家是一个充满政治、协商、权力和复杂情感的地方。
