journal contribution
posted on 2023-06-09, 14:15 authored by Katie WalshKatie Walsh, Katie Willis, Hsiu-Hua ShenThere have been few analyses of heterosexuality in the context of migration, particularly within Asia. As a corrective, in this special issue we bring together four articles to contribute to debates on the fluidity of heterosexuality and how the performance of heterosexuality has particular spatialities within East and South-East Asia. Each article uses ethnographic methods to produce nuanced analyses of specific and spatially contingent performances of heterosexuality. A migration focus illuminates how spatial dislocation provides opportunities for both men and women to play out different heterosexual identities. At the same time, migrants come across challenges and obstacles to their performances of heterosexuality, such as the state regulation of the migrant body, economic necessity, and gendered and ethnicised behavioural norms.
