COMG OUT AND G BACK: RURAL GAY MIGRATN AND THE CY

Rights and ntentAbstractThis rearch foc on the plex meang and role of the cy Amerin and French ral gay men’s imagary and life experience.

After ntextualizg ral male homosexualy, this paper prents four life erari which highlight the central role the cy has for ral gay men when explorg their same-sex sir and attractns. While the cy exists as a space of social practic where alternative sexuali n be experienced and explored, at the same time for many ral gay men the cy remas substantially unattractive.

Therefore, the experience of the cy be both liberatg and disciplary – liberatg bee allows the exploratn of their same-sex sir and attractns, disciplary bee (re)prents a gay inty which they fd no ronance. Th this rearch dit that ral gay migratn to the urban spac, which is key to inty formatn, clus not only parture to the cy but also a necsary return to the untry to mata ral gay men’s unrstandg of themselv.

IntroductnThis article explor the lk between migratn patterns of gay men who grew up French and North Amerin ral plac and their procs of inty nstctn.

We expand the existg body of work about sexualy and raly (Bell, 2000, Bell, 2006, Gorman-Murray et al., 2008, Kirkey and Forsyth, 2001, Smh and Holt, 2005, Valente, 1997) by focg on the experience of self-intified gay men who grew up French and US ral spac. 2 Acceptg that intify formatn is a plex procs shaped by dividuals’ movements om one space to another (Andrews, 2009), this article characteriz how this procs emerg for a select group of ral gay men. Therefore, our rearch qutns how the procs of formg sexual (and genred) inti for the ral gay men works through an attractn and, ncurrently, a repulsn of the “cy.

Other theorists have poted out the need to not only foc on factors such as race, ethnicy, age, genr, and class when tryg to unrstand subjectivi that nstute gayns, but also the need to rporate geographic lotn as a cisive factor (Inns, 2004, Knopp, 2006, Knopp and Brown, 2003).

For stance, Knopp argu that “the ia of movement, flux, and flow as important ontologil s and of themselv, for both gay men and geographil thought, has been unrappreciated and unrveloped the lerature of both” (Knopp, 2006: 219). This article explor more eply the relatnship between spatial movements and the buildg of ral gay men’s sense of have been portrayed as “homosexual paradis” whose tolerance of non-heterosexual inti and sexual practic attracted numero ral dividuals tryg to pe the nservative culture of their place of birth (Blidon, 2008, Rub, 1993, Valente and Skelton, 2003, Wton, 1995). Ci have also bee talysts the nstctn of ntemporary gay cultur3 whereas ral plac have monly been ntrasted as cultural vacuums (Aldrich, 2004, Knopp, 1998, Mort, 1995).

This ral/urban distctn appears so embedd nscns (and rearch) that has bee a source of unrstandg of gay dividuals’ relotn and migratn, broadly, and this rearch, of ral gay men’s relotn and migratn, specifilly (Gorman-Murray, 2007, Knopp and Brown, 2003). Past gay migratn studi suggt that due to feelg out of place the ral muni where they grew up, gay dividuals need spatial displacement and relotn to urban spac orr to be able to exprs eely their alternative sexual sir and to velop their non-heterosexual inty (Bnie, 2004, Brown, 2000, Cant, 1997, Chncey, 1994).

In fact, the studi nflate gay migratn wh ral–urban displacement where ral areas are portrayed as “nstrag plac” for homosexual sexualy ntrast to urban areas which are portrayed as “liberatg plac.

” Recently, this unidirectnal approach to gay migratn rearch has been challenged for: (1) givg a simplistic and partial view and unrstandg of gay dividuals’ movements, (2) assumg the impossibily of velopg gay inty ral areas and the necsy of gog to urban centers to velop one, and (3) suggtg the existence of a unique, “fully formed and fixed” inty urban centers (Gorman-Murray, 2007). This article also challeng tradnal gay migratn studi fdg that, over their lifetim, most of our rmants do not experience the cy as unequivolly “liberatg, ” spe the cy’s importance ial velopment of a gay inty. Moreover, if the mon procs for gay inty velopment reli on back-and-forth movements between different sl and environments (Knopp, 2006, Knopp and Brown, 2003), both gay subjects’ parture om and their return to ral areas need to be more thoroughly study first explor the diversy of their life erari cludg var movements between, and wh, urban and ral spac along which participants fe their subjectivy.

It suggts that even though the cy do not stand as a fal statn our participants’ life trajectori, experienc the cy play a cisive and plex role shapg ral gay men’s inti. Fally, we suggt that how the men nstct the untry and the cy as spac wh prcribed and/or subscribed s and norms expla their plex but nohels cisive feelgs toward both spac and the tablishment of their inty as ral gay men.

Ground theory appearsThe untry homosexual imagarySocial scientists workg the ral field have wily accepted the existence of a “ral idyll” Wtern societi which ral spac are portrayed as natural and pure spac, a refuge, away om the rptn of the cy (Ltle and At, 1996, Mendras, 1992, Vepsalaen and Pkanen, 2010). In fact, has sometim been portrayed as a safe and eroticized place, anotherThe cy and ral gay migratn: four life storiRults show that variatns life histori and erari are more signifint wh each untry than between untri.

ConclnThis study shows that the symbolic ral/urban bary suggted by existg lerature, which the cy is fed as a “homosexual paradise” and the untry is ntrasted as a “homosexual vacuum, ” also reflects the reprentatns by the ral gay men terviewed.
