In a series of now infamous scenes, she confronts a trio of Black trans women whose sex work in the early hours of the morning is driving her to open hysteria. “I didn’t pay a fortune to live in a neighborhood that’s trendy by day and tranny by night,” Samantha exclaims at brunch. Her first attempt to resolve the issue is to patronize the women by complimenting their looks before asking if they would kindly move to another block. (Narrates Carrie Bradshaw: “Samantha always knew how to get her way with men, even if they were half-women.”) But when they return and are loud enough to stall an orgasm with her boyfriend, Samantha opens her bedroom window, screams, “Shut up, you bitches! I called the cops!” and hurls a pot of water onto one of them. “I am a tax-paying citizen and a member of the Young Women’s Business Association! I don’t have to put up with this!” she rants to herself before launching the liquid projectile. A police car then appears on the street, and Samantha watches, triumphantly, as the Black trans women move on. The episode, as contemporary devotees of the series openly admit, hasn’t aged especially well over the past twenty years.1 When the series was given a sequel, And Just Like That, Kim Cattrall, who played Samantha, chose not to return. But what that temporal marker of not ageing well signifies, I gather, is that the conventions of representing trans people, especially Black trans women, have since traversed the arc of the so-called trans tipping point, where framing racialized trans femininity and sex work as the butts of jokes colludes with actual social death and material vulnerability.2 To that we might add that trans women are the subject of an avalanche of contemporary moral panics that trade in even more vicious fantasies of","PeriodicalId":45704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Sexuality","volume":"32 1","pages":"93 - 98"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44594906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under the framework of neoliberal modernity and Western “sexual exceptionalism,” “normative queer subjects” have been constructed as rational and incompatible with understandings of spirituality, faith, or religion.1 Similarly, certain mainstream strands of queer theory seem to be committed to “an existential scepticism regarding the possibility of a transcendent, divine source of meaning.”2 This incompatibility can also be found in scholarship on queer history. Such tension has been markedly exacerbated by Michel Foucault’s works, which drive historians to “privilege science and medicine as the epistemic leverage for the formation of modern gender and sexual identities.”3 The resulting overlooking of supernatural elements also exists in the field of China’s queer history, which tends to focus on more tangible powers and regulations of gender transgression through empirical analysis of political, legal, and medical discourse.

A few weeks after the repeal of Dade County’s gay rights ordinance in June 1977, Letha Scanzoni and Virginia Ramey Mollenkott mailed cover letters to twelve publishers for their book manuscript Is the Homosexual My Neighbor? Another Christian View. Published by Harper & Row in the spring of 1978, the book opened with references to Anita Bryant’s Save Our Children campaign in Dade County and portrayed its own message of neighborly love as a necessary alternative to Bryant’s stance. Scanzoni and Mollenkott knew that the Dade County vote might seem “representative of a basic attitude in this country.” In the late 1970s, as antigay and antifeminist sentiment swelled both within and beyond evangelicalism, public appeals to “the family”—from Bryant’s Save Our Children campaign to President Jimmy Carter’s plans for the White House Conference on Families—became more frequent and more potent. Even so, Scanzoni and Mollenkott believed that “many Christian people take a more moderate view of the issue.” Moreover, they believed that “the more moderate majority” included many evangelicals. Thus, their book was aimed, as their cover letter to Harper & Row put it, “particularly toward those in the evangelical tradition.”1","PeriodicalId":45704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Sexuality","volume":"31 1","pages":"335 - 360"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42487169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was the early morning of 28 October 1897, and Pacific spring skies stretched over the island of Samoa. Around 4:00 a.m., the Samoan men sitting in va‘as (canoes) over the coral reef sprang into frantic motion. The water also began swirling: long, wispy tendrils began moving to the surface in circuitous motion. Within minutes, countless numbers of these creatures appeared, some dark blue and some light brown. Soon they covered the face of the water, and the Samoan men leaned over quickly, pulled them out, and stored them in special containers. The bearded German man who was sitting in one of these va‘as looked on in restrained awe. His name was Doctor Benedict Friedländer (1866–1908), a zoologist and sociologist from Berlin who had arrived alone in Samoa several weeks earlier. As occurred every year during the Pacific spring, the residents of Samoa gorged themselves on these sea worms, which they called palolo (Palola viridis). Friedländer himself also tried the dish, claiming its taste was reminiscent of caviar—especially when raw.1 He wasn’t the first European to witness the “palolo dance”; the phenomenon had been reported on by several British and German researchers.2 But in the following days, he began investigating the worms’ bodies and was surprised to discover that they in fact had no heads. It soon became apparent to Friedländer that the creatures who made such a sudden appearance were not the worms at all but rather their genitalia.","PeriodicalId":45704,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Sexuality","volume":"31 1","pages":"192 - 217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42983561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first-generation son of Italian immigrants initially enlisted because his sweetheart explicitly told him that she would not marry him unless he went and fought, and throughout training and his brief deployment in France (where he took part in the decisive Meuse-Argonne offensive), Rizzi derived meaning and motivation from his connection to his sweetheart, as well as to his mother. He testified to the encouraging influences of their letters and confessed that the thought of their opprobrium prevented him from deserting his unit or committing any other offense that could lead to court-martial or dishonor. One night in France, he recalled, he had a strong desire to “enjoy the comradeship of the opposite sex and to indulge in the physical emotion of love” but was prevented from doing so partially by the knowledge that the military police guarded the entrances to the brothels in the town in which he was stationed, stopping American soldiers from entering.
