Abstract

BOIVIN, Renaud René. De la ambigüedad del clóset a la cultura del gueto gay: género y homosexualidad en París, Madrid y México. La ventana [online]. 2011, vol.4, n.34, pp.146-190. ISSN 1405-9436.

This article shows how the roles of homosexual socialization spaces in Paris, Madrid and Mexico City have changed their roles from housing ambiguous and undefined sexual subjects to being part of processes of specialization and delimitation of urban spaces at the same time as homosexuality was being constituted as an identity. We also found that, due in part to the need to respond to the marginalization caused by AIDS, new values, discourses, representations and practices appeared that would lead to the masculinization of the image of the homosexual male, and therefore to its normalization.

Keywords : Homosociability; gay; ghetto; masculinization; gentrification.
