IS GAY THE NEW ASIAN?: MARRIAGE EQUALY AND THE DAWN OF A NEW MOL MORY
Is Gay the New Asian?: Marriage Equaly and the Dawn of a New Mol Mory * chang is gay the new asian *
Excerpted From: Stewart Chang, Is Gay the New Asian?
In some rpects, Obergefell is as much a fense of marriage as is a civil rights se for gay and lbian Amerins. The Obergefell cisn, then, reprents the opportuny for gay dividuals to be "normal. Wh Kennedy's valorizatn of marriage and pejorative reprentatn of alternative forms, Obergefell ns the risk of turng a certa segment of the gay muny to a mechanism to disciple and margalize nonnformg populatns.
The path of ial rejectn and regulatn, followed by eventual acceptance and assiatn for the gay muny, mirrors the trajectory of Asian Amerins the Uned Stat. Gay dividuals were once ostracized as a threat to the Amerin fay and therefore required regulatn. Obergefell reprents the culmatn of an crementalist approach towards gay rights that begs wh crimalizatn of anti-sodomy and termat wh the legalizatn of same-sex marriage.

The stg of gay dividuals as mol Amerins has promoted a growg sense of their normalcy and th their equaly wh the rt of the Amerin populace -- that they are the same as other Amerins and therefore serve the same rights. Th, gay dividuals bee equal cizens through assiatn to Amerin norms of fay, while their differenc om the norm are unrplayed.
Victory on the terms, however, suggts a al relatnship between equal cizenship and homogeney. By focg so keenly on marriage, the crementalist movement and the rultg cisn Obergefell narrowly f how gay dividuals n achieve equal protectn the Uned Stat to the excln of other choic bis marriage.

Yet the emergence of mted gay upl as a new sexual mol mory has e at the st of margalizg other forms of gay inty, which often volve racial dynamics. Both Asian Amerins and gay Amerins have historilly been differentiated om normative fai orr to jtify their excln and margalizatn, and yet they have now been assiated to the norm to exclu and margalize other mory groups.
In the same way that the succs of Asian Amerin fai has been ed to perpetuate the myth of lor-bldns, the succs acrd to gay fai through Obergefell holds the potential for promotg the myth of sexualy-bldns. In the same way that not all Asian Amerin groups have accs to tnal and enomic attament, not all gay people may want or even have accs to marriage for reasons outsi of law. Prr to the release of the cisn, Katie Eyer warned that Obergefell might portend the myth of progrs even while te equaly for gay Amerins ntu to be elive.
