摘要

摘要:关于年长的双性恋者如何从他们的性身份中获得意义,我们知之甚少。这项研究从生命历程的角度考察了年长双性恋女性的叙事,以更好地了解她们的生活经历,以及她们的双性恋身份是如何在历史和话语背景下发展起来的。对双性恋老年女性(60岁以上)的深度访谈采用6步福柯语篇分析过程进行分析。数据中出现了两组女性,其区别在于她们第一次吸引女性的时间和她们的双性恋结构。早期移民的特点是他们早期对女性的吸引力和对生物结构的重视,而中年移民相对较晚才认识到他们对女性的吸引,并将双性恋描述为一种社会结构。研究结果表明,需要对双性恋进行多种清晰的叙述,并需要研究历史背景和生活时间,作为潜在挑战和优势的指标。

“Hardwired” Biology and “Light Bulb” Moments: Divergent Life Course Trajectories and Discourses among Older Bisexual Women
ABSTRACT Little is known about the ways in which older bisexual individuals make meaning out of their sexual identity. This study examined narratives of older bisexual women from a life course perspective to better understand their life experiences and how their bisexual identities developed within historical and discursive contexts. In-depth interviews with bisexual-identified older women (age 60+) were analyzed using a 6-step Foucauldian discourse analysis process. Two groups of women emerged in the data, distinguished by the timing of their first attractions to women and their constructions of bisexuality. The Early Emergers were characterized by their early attractions to women and emphasis on biological constructions, while the Midlife Migrators recognized their attractions to women relatively later and described bisexuality as a social construction. Findings indicate the need for multiple legible narratives of bisexuality and the need to examine historical context and timing of lives as indicators of potential challenges and strengths.
