This results in pluriform conceptive practices, which this paper examines through the lens of kinning, i.e. the active establishment of kinship ties. This paper aims to increase our understanding of how lesbian couples shape conception and how this is related to existing kinship discourses, particularly discourses on motherhood and the role of the donor. 48 semi-structured interviews with both partners in 24 lesbian couples expecting their first child were conducted and thematically analyzed. Analysis show that kinning intentions play an important role when lesbian couples make decisions for conception. Reaffirming the lesbian relationship and managing the relationship with the sperm donor were central concerns. I conclude that conception is a symbolically laden event in which different strategies could be employed to set the stage for desired future family relations. As such, conceptive practices provide a window into how expectant lesbian couples understand and mold existing kinship discourses to fit their families.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143626587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compared the internalized homophobia (IH), depression, and suicidal behaviors between the 2015 and 2023 cohorts and determined whether IH would be associated with depression and suicidality irrespective of the legal status of homosexuality Results: Gay men in 2023 reported significantly lower levels of IH (t-value = -3.14, p-value .002) compared to those in 2015, while depression and suicidal behaviors did not show a significant difference. IH correlated significantly with depression and suicidal behaviors before and after the repeal of Section 377.Conclusion: Our study highlights the relationship between internalized homophobia and adverse mental health outcome in Indian gay men.

We examine these two possibilities by utilizing four annual waves (2014-2017) of longitudinal panel data to assess the temporal ordering of sexual prejudice, ambivalent sexism and support for marriage equality across heterosexual men (n = 9,036) and women (n = 15,185). Results reveal that sexual prejudice predicts within-person declines in support for marriage equality for both women and men. This association is, however, bi-directional for men. We replicate these associations across (a) ethnic majority and minority men and women and (b) non-religious and religious men and women, albeit with a few notable exceptions: Hostile sexism precedes sexual prejudice for ethnic minority men, and benevolent sexism precedes support for marriage equality among ethnic majority group men and non-religious men. Collectively, our results demonstrate that conservative gender ideologies precede hostile attitudes toward the LGB+ community over time.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143626590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, these same platforms are often engulfed with homophobia and transphobic rhetoric and high rates of online violence targeted at 2SLGBTQ+ communities. To shed light on how digital platforms can help and/or hinder 2SLGBTQ+ people's mental health, we conducted a mixed-methods survey to examine mental health outcomes among 2SLGBTQ+ people in Nova Scotia, Canada, who have used digital platforms during and since the COVID-19 pandemic. The Health Equity Promotion Model was applied to analyze survey data collected from 119 participants and uncover how intersecting individual, structural, and technological factors and affordances impact 2SLGBTQ+ people's mental health. Our findings reflect the diversity and fluidity of 2SLGBTQ+ people's mental health experiences that cannot be viewed through a positivistic lens. We discuss the ethical implications of digital platforms and their mental health effects on marginalized populations and the importance of conducting intersectional research, and we conclude with recommendations to support 2SLGBTQ+ people's mental health.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-28"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143574369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can be a sanctuary, nurturing comfort with identities and aiding in coming out. However, it can also be a place of hostility, reinforcing LGBTQ+ prejudice. Similarly, home preserves family traditions and sustains Jewish identity and practice, but by performing rituals and ceremonies at home, it can also reflect antisemitic attitudes and expressions present in the broader society. This study demonstrates this queer-Jewish juxtapose by presenting a textual analysis of four queer Jewish blessings dedicated to marking and establishing the LGBTQ+ Jewish home. Each of these variations on traditional blessings is characterized by intertextuality with Jewish sources and the appropriation of queer language, symbols, representations, and narratives. The texts present the Reform Jewish liturgy as an agency in the effort to establish the home-both temporary and permanent-as a safe and protected space for LGBTQ+ individuals, with faith and tradition playing a key role in realizing this vision. However, the blessings also reveal heteronormative trends that undermine the radical nature of queerness, such as the sanctification of the institution of marriage. Thus, it appears that the liturgical field may not only be discovered as a harmonious solution in the contemporary encounter between Judaism and queerness but also as a space for the reproduction and preservation of traditional hegemonic structures and perceptions.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-25"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143558441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since English study is important in Taiwan, this project responded by employing hidden curriculum theory to address the possible role of English language teaching (ELT) materials authored and used in Taiwan in reproducing or disrupting the marginalization of LGBT people. This study operationalized the target hidden curriculum as instantiations of norms implicit within sexuality representations such as depictions of dating behaviors and family structures. The resulting critical content analysis provided evidence that LGBT people were almost entirely invisible and were discursively othered when present, thus providing evidence that ELT materials from Taiwan represent a heteronormative hidden curriculum. These results illustrate the importance of attention to the hidden curriculum in designing educational materials, as a part of materials adoption decisions, and as a dimension of teacher training. Explicit policy and what was actually being taught via the hidden curriculum being at odds in this case bolsters the argument for such actions.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-25"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143544270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Partially structured interviews (N = 12 LGBT+ people) were conducted using an insider's perspective in the context of a homophobic society. Thematic analysis of responses showed that reclaimed hate speech is, according to LGBT+ people, a reaction to traditional hate speech, while being their own language related to the exclusiveness of the minority experience. When used by entitled persons, it is not perceived as offensive, but is nevertheless shocking and brings up fears about the normalization of traditional hate speech. This means that reclaimed hate speech, contrary to what has been presented in the existing literature, is not an unambiguously positive phenomenon.

Though religiosity has traditionally been associated with resistance to LGBTQ inclusion, in recent years the inclusion and acceptance of LGBTQ individuals has become common among some religious congregations and clergy, especially those in the more liberal denominations. This paper extends past research by: (1) using a nationally representative study of congregations to examine the trends in inclusion of individuals in same-sex relationships in congregational life and congregational activities concerning LGBTQ issues and rights, and (2) using a nationally representative study of clergy to document the views of congregational leaders concerning individuals in same-sex relationships and clergy political activity regarding LGBTQ issues. I find that congregational inclusion of individuals in same-sex relationships increased between 2006-07 and 2018-19, and a significant minority of congregations and clergy participated in meetings or political action concerning LGBTQ issues, though there were substantial variations by religious tradition. As the proportion of individuals in the United States identifying as LGBTQ increases, and as public opinion concerning LGBTQ issues continues to liberalize, understanding LGBTQ inclusion and activities concerning LGBTQ rights among congregations and clergy remains important.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143494267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
