There has recently been much discsn the field of lbian and gay studi about Dennis Altman's theory of 'global queerg'[1] which outl the fluence of the Civil Rights' Movement the US and Europe on the velopment of lbian and gay 'inti' which then, through the 'globalisg' fluence of post-dtrial wage-based enomi, nsumerism, the mass media and tourism, turn beg to affect digeno unrstandgs of homosexualy societi where tradnally there has been no notn of a personal inty found on the genr of sexual object choice. In this theory, the US is often assumed to be somehow advance of the rt of the world and the mols pneered that untry for creasg the social space acrd to lbian and gay liv are generalised as suable mols for lbians and gay men other untri to adopt.

To what extent have digeno Japane unrstandgs of same-sex sire, fashned a relig and polil climate que different om that wtern untri, been fluenced by wtern mols of lbian and gay inty? Until recently, was impossible to answer this qutn for, even five years ago, there was practilly no rmatn available English about homosexualy morn Japan and there was only one book and a handful of amic papers ncerng Japan's well-attted historil tradn of male homosexualy.

[2] Today, there are a number of books which al wh the historil background of male homosexualy Japan nsirable tail and others which look at homosexualy morn Japan om bgraphil, cultural, lerary or anthropologil perspectiv. [3] There is now sufficient rmatn available about male homosexualy[4] ntemporary Japan to beg to make tertg ntrasts wh unrstandgs of homosexualy wtern societi.

Unfortunately, spe the new rmatn that has recently been ma available, some rearchers still sist on viewg 'homosexualy' Japane society through wtern ey and evaluatg the suatn facg lbians and gay men acrdance wh wtern mols of what means to be 'a lbian' or 'a gay. [5] Summerhawk plas of the 'difficulti' Japane gay men have 'the inty-velopment procs' (emphasis me) as if there ever uld be a sgular, universal 'gay inty' and suggts that Japane gay men who do not wish to exprs themselv terms of this imported termology are 'nial of their own opprsn. What I wish to do the prent paper is strs how reprentatns of (primarily male) homosexual love and even sex permeate Japane popular culture to an extent that would be unimagable the US or Europe and that 'homosexualy' Japan is therefore very differently nceptualised.

However, I mt pot out that the visibily of 'homosexualy' Japane media such as ic books, women's magaz, TV dramas and talk-shows, movi and popular fictn has not created the space for dividuals exprsg lbian or gay 'inti' to e out actual life. Yet, as recent rearch has shown, [8] the notn of 'g out' is seen as unsirable by many Japane gay men and lbians as necsarily volv adoptg a nontatnal stance agast mastream liftyl and valu, which many still wish to endorse. '[9] This paper attempts to outle what 'homosexualy' is ma to mean a variety of Japane popular media and thereby acunt for the relative lack of 'inty polics' exprsed by gay people Japan.

Although Japan has had a wi range of vobulary for scribg the partners volved male homosexual teractns, some of which date back hundreds of years, there has been a marked change the nature of the terms the morn perd. Durg the Tokugawa perd (1600-1867), the nanshoku (sometim transcribed as danshoku and meang 'male eroticism') ntaed a wi variety of terms for scribg the partners volved homosexual acts pendg upon such factors as age (their junr or senr role), stat, genr inty, and the ntext which the acts took place. However, durg Japan's rapid mornisatn the Meiji perd (1867-1912), this unrstandg of homosexualy as one 'Way' [doo] of enjoyg sex began to be displaced by wtern sexologil terms such as dooseiaisha (the Che-character translatn of 'homosexual, ' lerally 'same-sex-love person') which suggted that homosexual sire was characteristic of a certa type of person: the homosexual.

However, the dissematn of this ia throughout society was extremely uneven and, as will be scribed later, the exprsn of same-sex sire today do not necsarily mean that a person will be nomalised as 'a homosexual' terms of that sire. The tradnal unrstandg of homosexualy as a particular style or 'Way' of enjoyg sex is still fatly discernible certa media texts which speak of homosexualy as a 'hobby' [shumi] or a kd of 'play' [asobi / purei].

This film, starrg the famo Japane transvte actor Peter, is shot documentary style and giv an tertg acunt of Tokyo's late-60s unrground gay scene where 'normal' adult men mataed relatnships wh younger transgenred men who worked Japan's mizu shoobai ['water tra' or entertament bs]. Today, homosexualy Japan is largely nflated wh cross-drsg and transgenrism due to the promence of cross-drsed dividuals featured the media and the entertament world. Th, homosexual men are unrstood to be okama (lerally a 'pot' but meang somethg siar to the English word 'queen') and are ually reprented as cross-drsed and effemate.

The e of the term okama riv om the slang age of the term to refer to the buttocks and thereby to anal sex which is nsired to be the five sexual act engaged by homosexual men.

One further term nnected wh the 'pot' metaphor is the word okoge which is lerally the burnt rice which sticks to the bottom of the pot and is a term for 'fag hag' (straight women who like to hang around gay men) but this is not generally unrstood, spe the popular 1992 movie of that name (which I discs later the paper). The ia that same-sex attractn necsarily volv some kd of transgenrism or sire to be like or even bee the oppose of one's blogil sex is nstantly rerced by Japane media which discs homosexualy and transgenrism the same ntext. ' The first word fed is gei [gay] which is glossed as 'male homosexual' [dansei dooseiaisha]; other words scribg male homosexuals such as homo and okama are scribed as 'offensive.
