Gender and Sexuality in Modern Japan describes the ever-changing
manifestations of sexes, genders, and sexualities in Japanese
society from the 1860s to the present day. Analysing a wide range
of texts, images and data, Sabine Fruhstuck considers the
experiences of females, males and the evolving spectrum of
boundary-crossing individuals and identities in Japan. These
include the intersexed conscript in the 1880s, the first 'out'
lesbian war reporter in the 1930s, and pregnancy-vest-wearing male
governors in the present day. She interweaves macro views of
history with stories about individual actors, highlighting how
sexual and gender expression has been negotiated in both the
private and the public spheres and continues to wield the power to
critique and change society. This lively and accessible survey
introduces Japanese ideas about modern manhood, modern womenhood,
reproduction, violence and sex during war, the sex trade, LGBTQ
identities and activism, women's liberation, feminisms and visual
culture.
