GAY JAPAN

We wre about the different gay scen each statn we vis our gay travel blog lled Nomadic Boys. From Tsuyoshi Kanagi’s portrayal of a transgenr woman Midnight Swan to a gay lawyer’s battle wh love and self-rentment Three Stori of Love, the Japane LGBTQ films have helped shaped Japan’s morn film dtry and the untry’s attus towards LGBTQ people. The film exam them of love, abandonment and heartbreak om three polar-oppose characters: Shomiya (Ryo Ika), a closeted gay lawyer wh a self-flicted emotnal wound, Atshi (Atshi Shohara), a bridge spector grievg his late wife and Toko (Toko Nashima), a hoewife who has an affair wh a sm artist.

Much like Hashiguchi’s prev works, such as A Touch of Fever and Hh — both of which featured gay men — the film weav the lonels and agily of each character through their muted speratn. After a group of high school sophomor take an LGBTQ awarens urse school, the stunts grow spic of their classmat’ sexualy. They rne at Hoe of Himiko, a nursg home found by her father for gay men.

In districts like Shju Nichōme, Tokyo’s gay neighborhood, Japane and foreign talk, drk, and mgle, long-standg private bars, clubs, drag shows, and on the streets outsi nvenience stor.

Their relatnships most likely varied greatly by suatn and across time perds, but a typil nanshoku pairg rporated many dimensns: mentorship and stewardship, platonic iendship, as well as physil acts of homosexual sex. The practice only began to fa wh the Meiji Rtoratn the late 1800s, when scty om the Wt led to a refg of homosexualy and heterosexualy Japane society.

While historil pictns of Nobunaga and Ranma sometim fully portray them as gay lovers, we mt be reful to separate historic nanshoku and the figur there om LGBTQ issu today, and to avoid mornizg norms of that era to f our ncept of sexualy and romance. We n fer queer people have always existed, and that some practners of nanshoku—perhaps cludg Nobunaga and Ranma—might have self-intified as queer or gay if displaced to our morn time wh our morn fns, although we nnot know for sure.
