Abstract

ABSTRACT Through its portrayals of the intersectional identities of race and gender divergence, the FX series Pose illustrates how social structures fail marginalized communities as a disciplinary function of hegemony and perpetuate a biomedical model of health that serves to reinforce health disparities. For this study, researchers took a critical cultural rhetorical approach to the series through the lens of the social ecological model and biomedical model, to deconstruct hegemonic discourses of power present within medical practices. This paper situates Pose as an artifact that condemns the cultural practices of the marginalization and erasure of transgender communities, demonstrating how the show confronts the mechanisms of hegemonic power by exposing the cissexist stigmatization within the healthcare establishment. Through the exposure of the failings of the social ecological model with the biomedical model, Pose exposes the discrimination and stigma inherent within dominant forms of healthcare as they persist today.

“世界要我们死”:耻辱和Pose健康的社会建构

FX系列《Pose》通过对种族和性别分歧的交叉身份的描绘，说明了社会结构是如何作为霸权的学科功能而使边缘化社区失败的，并使一种有助于加强健康差异的生物医学健康模式永续存在。在这项研究中，研究人员通过社会生态模型和生物医学模型的镜头对该系列采取了批判性的文化修辞方法，以解构医学实践中存在的霸权权力话语。本文将《Pose》定位为一个谴责边缘化和抹去跨性别社区的文化习俗的人工制品，展示了该节目如何通过揭露医疗机构内的性别歧视污名来对抗霸权机制。通过暴露社会生态模型与生物医学模型的失败，Pose暴露了今天持续存在的主要医疗保健形式中固有的歧视和耻辱。
