Abstract

This article analyses interview data to explore how participants negotiated discourses of (hetero)sexism in relation to the controversial pop song Blurred Lines. Our previous work, based on questionnaire data, interrogated interpretations of Blurred Lines (Handforth, Paterson, Coffey-Glover & Mills 2017) and showed how participants drew on discourses of sexism in their responses. Several participants experienced significant conflict in their interpretations, and here we focus on these more complex interpretations, considering the “small stories” (Bamberg & Georgakopoulou 2008) identified in follow-up interviews with participants. Individual narratives acted as mechanisms through which participants linked Blurred Lines to wider issues such as rape culture, drawing parallels between these and their own lives. Following research in queer linguistics (King 2014; Leap 2014; Motschenbacher 2010) our use of thematic analysis, corpus linguistic tools and narrative analysis highlights the various subject positions that participants negotiated in their storytelling, and how these positions both echoed and challenged normative understandings of gender and sexuality.
流行音乐中(异性恋)性别歧视的论述
本文分析了访谈数据,以探讨参与者如何就有争议的流行歌曲《模糊的线条》中的(异性恋)性别歧视话语进行协商。我们之前的工作基于问卷数据,询问了对模糊线条的解释(Handforth,Paterson,Coffey Glover&Mills 2017),并展示了参与者如何在回答中利用性别歧视的话语。一些参与者在他们的解释中经历了重大冲突,在这里,我们关注这些更复杂的解释,考虑到在对参与者的后续采访中发现的“小故事”(Bamberg&Georgakopoulou,2008)。个体叙事充当了参与者将模糊线与强奸文化等更广泛问题联系起来的机制,将这些问题与他们自己的生活联系起来。继酷儿语言学研究之后(King 2014;Leap 2014;Motschenbacher 2010),我们使用主题分析、语料库语言工具和叙事分析,突出了参与者在讲故事时协商的各种主题立场,以及这些立场如何呼应和挑战对性别和性的规范理解。
