摘要

在1992年,一位名叫F·I·I·I·I·I·I的女性在1919年的自传中表达了她的失落,她为社会学研究收集了一本关于性生活的故事集。她写道:“玛丽亚已经进入了永恒。这是在报纸上的讣告上宣布的。只有我送去葬礼的黑玫瑰才能传达我们友谊的信息。我敢打破遗忘的编织吗?”虽然这位作者结过两次婚,而且正如她所描述的那样,她和丈夫一起经历了最美好的时光,但她的叙述是从玛丽亚开始的,她和玛丽亚一起在一个机构工作,她没有说出名字,但称其为二战后的“封闭社区”。这段婚外情包括接吻和爱抚,“让血液在血管里奔涌”,需要保密,作者回忆说,她担心自己卷入这样的婚外情会对自己造成伤害。这两个女人之间奇怪的欲望的一瞥说明了我对这本自传体集的发现的本质。玛丽亚的故事是由一个主要过着异性恋生活的女人写的,但这个文本仍然提供了对二战后时期同性欲望本质的洞察。虽然这位女士讲述了她与另一个女人的秘密恋情,但这本书中的许多作家都记得他们认识的同性恋者。我认为,这些作家回忆自己和他人的同性欲望的方式,揭示了酷儿欲望在20世纪90年代构建他们的性生活故事中的重要性。

Discovered Queer Desires: Rereading Same-Sex Sexuality from Finnish and Estonian Life Stories of the 1990s
I n 1992 a F I n n I s h w o m a n b o r n in 1919 expressed her loss in an autobiography she wrote for a collection of sexual life stories gathered for sociological research. She wrote: “Maria has already passed on to eternity. That was announced in a death notice in the newspaper. Only the dark roses I have sent to the funeral convey the message of our friendship. Do I dare to break the fabric of forgetting?” Although this author had married twice and, as she describes it, experienced her best moments with her spouse, her account begins with Maria, with whom she had worked in an institution that she does not name but describes as a “closed community” after World War II. The affair, which involved kissing and caressing that “made the blood rush in the veins,” needed to be kept secret, and the writer recalls being worried about doing something harmful to herself by engaging in such an affair. This glimpse of the queer desire between two women illustrates the nature of my findings about this collection of autobiographies. The story of Maria was written by a woman who had lived a predominantly heterosexual life, but the text nonetheless offers insight into the nature of same-sex desire during the post–World War II period. While this woman recounted her own secret affair with another woman, many of the writers in the collection remember gays and lesbians they have known. I will argue that the way in which these writers recall their own same-sex desires and those of others reveals the importance of queer desires in constructing their sexual life stories in the 1990s.
