摘要

在过去的十年里,人们逐渐从传统的性别二元观转向更广泛地承认性别认同存在于一个范围内。尽管如此,公众对性别多样性的态度是微妙而复杂的,跨性别者和非二元性个体的更大知名度同时带来了接受和争议。虽然在这些转变的背景下,一些父母对孩子颠覆传统性别规范的态度变得更加开放,但其他人仍然担心性别不符合标准的孩子可能会受到负面影响。尤其是LGBTQ+父母,他们的性别/性取向和抚养孩子的能力仍然受到密切关注。很少有研究涉及这些父母在决定孩子的性别社会化时所经历的紧张关系,现有的研究表明,与异性恋父母相比,这些父母群体具有更大的灵活性和开放性。本研究调查了一组独特的LGBTQ+父母(N = 40),他们报告说,与LGBTQ+父母的更大样本相比,他们在孩子(ren)符合性别规范方面的投资水平高于平均水平。具体而言,本研究旨在了解(1)促成这些父母相对较高投资水平的因素和过程,以及(2)他们描述的与子女参与的性别社会化实践。利用对开放式调查回应的反思性专题分析,我们确定了与这些目标相关的三个主题:平衡内部安全与外部风险;在酷儿家庭背景下的个体酷儿定位孩子引领,父母跟随。这些主题说明了父母在与孩子进行性别社会化过程中对复杂的个人和系统因素的关注、希望和考虑。

‘I want to support her but also want to protect her’: The gendered parenting practices of LGBTQ+ parents
Over the past decade, there has been a gradual shift away from traditional binary views of gender and towards a broader recognition of gender identities as existing on a spectrum. Despite this, public attitudes about gender diversity are nuanced and complex, and the greater visibility of transgender and nonbinary individuals has brought with it simultaneous acceptance and controversy. While some parents have become more open to their children subverting traditional gender norms in the context of these shifts, others remain concerned about potential negative consequences for gender nonconforming children. LGBTQ+ parents, in particular, remain under scrutiny for their gender/sexuality and ability to raise children. Little research has addressed the tensions that these parents experience when making decisions about the gender socialization of their children, and what exists suggests greater flexibility and openness among this parent population compared to heterosexual parents. The present study examines a unique group of LGBTQ+ parents (N = 40) who reported higher than average levels of investment in their child(ren)’s conformity to gender norms compared to a larger sample of LGBTQ+ parents. Specifically, this study aimed to understand (1) the factors and processes that contributed to relatively high levels of investment among these parents, and (2) the gender socialization practices they described engaging in with their children. Utilizing reflexive thematic analysis of open-ended survey responses, we identified three themes relevant to these aims: Balancing Internal Safety with External Risk; Navigating Individual Queerness in a Queer Family Context; and Children Lead, Parents Follow. These themes illustrate parents’ concerns, hopes, and consideration of complex individual and systemic factors as they navigated the gender socialization process with their children.
