Toward A Global History of Same-Sex Sexuality: I favor the term “same-sex sexuality” as one that gets beyond the use of terms such as “queer,” “gay,” “lesbian,” or “homosexual.” Yet I would like to proceed by looking at manifestations of what we call “same-sex sexuality” in different times and places in order both to explore global patterns and to consider how those patterns problematize the two parts of the term “same-sex sexuality.” That is, sometimes such manifestations cannot really be considered “same-sex.” And sometimes they should not really be labeled “sexuality.” These complications suggest that even the attempt to avoid assumptions about the meanings of desires and acts and relationships by using a term such as “same-sex sexuality” may inadvertently lump together phenomena that are quite different. This is the difficulty of thinking about a global history of same-sex sexuality. - Queer physiognomies; or, how many ways can we do the history of sexuality?

Catamite Coolies and Chinese Sodoms: British Investigations into Chinese Labourers‚ Sexuality in the 19th & 20th Centuries (Ross Forman, School of Oriental and African Studies) (Abstract, Must Scroll: PDF Download. Full text): "A common accusation levelled against Chinese labourers brought to various British colonies at the end of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century was that they were undesirable because of their penchant for pederasty. From sites as geographically disparate as Guiana and Malaya and South Africa, there emerged a discourse about ‘catamite coolies’ that typed Chinese labourers as problematic and promoted their repatriation over more usual patterns of settlement at the end of their indentures. Often relying on testimony from missionaries or other interested parties and often focusing on the role played by cross-dressing troupes of Chinese actors (who were presumed to serve as male prostitutes), British officials carried out a number of investigations into ‘unnatural vice’ in mining compounds and plantation settings. These investigations yield important historical information about colonial understandings of Asian sexualities and patterns of sociability. This paper offers an overview of these inquiries, focusing especially on the 1906 investigation into Chinese labourers in the Transvaal, whose ramifications were so explosive that Winston Churchill actually uttered the word ‘sodomy’ in Parliament. The paper considers what the moral and political implications of Asian male-male sexuality in workers’ enclosures were; what developmental theories of homosexuality were invoked (for instance, the claim that working-class men from Northern China learned about sodomy by sleeping in close proximity to one another during the cold winters); and how the workers were and were not able to represent their subjectivities through interpreters within the legalistic environment in which these colonial investigations were conducted."
