Abstract

ABSTRACT This collection of six poems is based on my reflections on growing up as a gay man in a heteronormative society where same-sex indulgence was outlawed until recently. The previously present anti-sodomy statute in India, political and religious concerns, and class-based social structures that converged to form an unfavorable atmosphere for gendered minorities, serves as the backdrop for these introspective poems. The poems express issues around my sexual identity formation, the intersectional oppression I faced due to my sexuality, the challenging internal conflicts I encountered when I was in “the closet,” the dread I endured for years and that I still embody, and my intense desire for freedom and an authentic identity.

Uncloseted

这本六首诗集是基于我作为一名男同性恋者在一个异性恋规范的社会中成长的反思，在这个社会中，放纵同性直到最近都是非法的。印度先前的反鸡奸法令，政治和宗教问题，以及基于阶级的社会结构，形成了对性别少数群体不利的氛围，这些都是这些内省诗歌的背景。这些诗表达了关于我的性身份形成的问题，我因性取向而面临的交叉压迫，我在“壁橱”中遇到的具有挑战性的内部冲突，我忍受了多年的恐惧，我仍然体现，以及我对自由和真实身份的强烈渴望。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
