{"title":"Puzzle pieces that don’t quite fit: lesbian and bisexual women in Cuban LGBT public spaces","authors":"Evie Browne","doi":"10.1080/0966369x.2023.2265582","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0966369x.2023.2265582","url":null,"abstract":"While research on Cuba may present a story of increasing tolerance for LGBT people, this article’s gendered analysis highlights the fractured nature of the ‘community’, revealing social exclusion based on deeply embedded patriarchal, racialised, and classed gender norms. Based on ethnographic research with Cuban lesbian and bisexual women and drawing on examples of Cuban LGBT public social space, it argues that the discrimination and social exclusion that lesbian and bisexual women face is underpinned by Cuba’s rigid machista gender norms, beyond straightforward sexism and sexual orientation discrimination. In three public spaces—CENESEX in Havana; gay clubs; and the Matanzas branch of the Iglesia de la Comunidad Metropolitana – Metropolitan Community Church – it shows how lesbian and bisexual women struggle to make social connections and community. This article develops the argument that, in this case study, political and social acceptance of different sexualities is built on a foundation of gender normativity, and excludes those who do not comply with gender norms. It brings a gendered analysis into the story of ‘gay rights’ in Cuba, which is often missing. Alongside other studies on lesbian and bisexual women across the world, this research helps demonstrate how LGBTIQ lives are structured by gender norms, and why it is important to consider gender in our work.","PeriodicalId":12513,"journal":{"name":"Gender, Place & Culture","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135094728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Queer space making across greater Los Angeles: reimagining urban autonomy through collective care","authors":"Jessennya Hernandez","doi":"10.1080/0966369x.2023.2265583","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0966369x.2023.2265583","url":null,"abstract":"AbstractThis paper analyzes the lives of whom I call poli-creatives and how they reimagine space making and urban autonomy across greater Los Angeles through a queer and feminist praxis of collective care. Using women of color feminisms, queer of color critique, and transnational feminisms, this paper introduces the concept of mycorrhizal assemblages. As a theoretical and analytical tool, it draws from subterranean webs of mycelial fungal strands to conceptualize how poli-creatives use their work to navigate their everyday socio-political economic conditions by building interconnected spaces and nurturing local queer, feminist, working class, immigrant communities. Drawing on ethnographic observations and life-history interviews with five key poli-creatives, this paper discusses one kind of mycorrhizal assemblage rooted in informal spaces and practices; intimacy, trust, and vulnerability; and anti-surveillance and -policing. I show how these spaces do not depend on visibility and representation in public space, gayborhoods, nor the neoliberal state and formal institutions. Instead, I argue that although they are decentralized and ephemeral, they stay connected by a transnational and queer politics of local community building through DIY practice, holding spaces for embodied trauma, and divesting from institutional and settler-colonial state power. This study responds to the limitations within urban studies and discourses about queer communities by centering how poli-creatives use their transnational experiences, intimate communities, and embodied traumas and knowledges to lay down new soil for collective survival across greater Los Angeles and a future otherwise.Keywords: EthnographyLatinxsqueer of color critiquespaceurban studieswomen of color feminisms AcknowledgementsI am endlessly grateful for the generous and invaluable support and guidance of Dr. Ghassan Moussawi.Disclosure statementThe authors report there are no competing interests to declare.Additional informationNotes on contributorsJessennya HernandezJessennya Hernandez is a brown Xicana PhD candidate in the Sociology and Gender and Women’s Studies departments at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her current dissertation research focuses on working-class queer Latinx feminist communities who use art and creative practices to build urban autonomy and collective care across greater Los Angeles. She looks at how their embodied knowledges and transnational spaces nurture interconnected queer networks and reimagine political practice and space making across greater LA’s urban landscape. Her larger research interests include sexuality and gender; race; women of color feminisms; queer of color critique; intersectionality; transnational feminism; and urban sociology. Her larger goals are to highlight queer forms of knowledge production and elevate the interests of queer Black, Indigenous, and people of color through research, teaching, and mentorship.","PeriodicalId":12513,"journal":{"name":"Gender, Place & Culture","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135094067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Exploring everyday experiences of entrepreneurial labour: gender and work in collaborative workspaces of Athens","authors":"Antigoni Papageorgiou","doi":"10.1080/0966369X.2022.2064832","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0966369X.2022.2064832","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract This paper explores how gender shapes the everyday experiences of entrepreneurial labour in Greek collaborative workspaces (CWS), highlighting a relatively understudied segment of coworking research. Drawing upon a wider study of collaborative workspaces in Athens, it explores how these spaces, which are the site of an enactment of entrepreneurial subjectivity, present themselves as gender-neutral but rest on highly masculinized assumptions about an archetypical masculine user of the space. Firstly, the article reveals divergence in the ways women and men entrepreneurs experience entrepreneurial labour. Secondly, it identifies how women entrepreneurs struggle to fit into narrow understandings of start-up entrepreneurship and innovation during the early stages of venture capital seeking. It then focuses on the way associations between bravery, risk and entrepreneurship appear in conversations with founders of CWS and are reinforced through their practice. Lastly, it examines how gendered structural constraints are rarely discussed by women start-up entrepreneurs. The article concludes by arguing that gender is not simply undone, but rather rearranged in a coworking landscape which is embedded in a start-up entrepreneurial context.","PeriodicalId":12513,"journal":{"name":"Gender, Place & Culture","volume":"175 1","pages":"1351 - 1371"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76964893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Pastoralist milking spaces as multispecies sites of gendered control and resistance in Kenya","authors":"Kayla Yurco","doi":"10.1080/0966369X.2022.2067522","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0966369X.2022.2067522","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract This article details the gendered micro-politics of livestock management in a pastoralist community in southern Kenya. It centers on traditionally underemphasized women’s spaces within homesteads and women’s livestock caretaking activities therein, and in so doing demonstrates how gendered labor is co-constitutive of gendered norms and resource access norms. Moreover, in focusing on access to cattle, access to milk, milk use, and decision-making concerning these cornerstones of livestock-based economies, it illuminates the variety of women’s responsibilities and challenges regarding resource management, food security, and wellbeing. Drawing from an ethnographic mixed methods research project, including an in-depth focal household study, household surveys, intra-household surveys, and interviews, this article also illuminates the norms, rules, and institutions governing gendered labor and resource management decisions in the gendered, multispecies spaces of milking. Findings presented here reveal how processes of rule-making and rule-breaking around milk management (access, use, and sales) come to be, why they are challenged or perpetuated, and their impacts on everyday gendered practices during rare times of plenty and more frequent times of hardship. These findings contribute to literatures that highlight the importance of understanding spatialized and gendered intra-household dynamics for reducing inequities in food systems.","PeriodicalId":12513,"journal":{"name":"Gender, Place & Culture","volume":"25 1","pages":"1393 - 1414"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77096606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Challenging shea as a woman’s crop – masculinities and resource control in Burkina Faso","authors":"Jennifer Friman","doi":"10.1080/0966369X.2022.2078282","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0966369X.2022.2078282","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract This article pays attention to the gendered resource struggles and changing division of labor of the feminized shea fruit in Burkina Faso. The aim of this qualitative study is to explore how the increased demand for shea has affected gendered natural resource access and divisions of labor in the local. Shea, often described as ‘women’s gold’, is one of few natural resources which women control harvest, processing and earnings. The increased demand for shea on the global market has therefore been presented as a benefactor for women’s economic empowerment in Burkina Faso. Yet, studies have pointed to that women seem to be sidelined in the shea commodity chain. This study explores how gendered natural resource struggles are formed in the local shea commodity chain by departing from three principles of gender analysis, access and control, labor division and subjectivities. The data was collected through ethnographic fieldwork in the two rural villages of Boessen and Tonogo in Burkina Faso. The analysis sheds light on the particularities in how men’s shea practices form masculinities and rearrange gendered labor norms. The study moreover shows how contestations of male involvement is done by targeting manhood and labor norm perceptions. Male involvement both re-produces hegemonic masculinities where male shea control delimits women’s income possibilities. Whilst it also shapes alternative masculinities which embraces cooperation and joint decision making within households.","PeriodicalId":12513,"journal":{"name":"Gender, Place & Culture","volume":"29 1","pages":"1437 - 1456"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90511880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
