Description

This groundbreaking anthropological study examines the lives, intimacies, and communities of lala (lesbian) women in mainland China during the 21st century. As Chinese society becomes increasingly modernized and tolerant, lala communities continue to navigate complex family and social pressures shaped by deeply gendered expectations. The first comprehensive ethnographic exploration of everyday lala experiences, this book analyses shifting expressions of sexual subjectivity, the significance of T-P (tomboy-wife) relationship roles, family and kinship structures, same-sex wedding practices, lala-gay contract marriages, and the formation of supportive communities. Published by Routledge as part of their Research in Gender and Society series, this volume offers essential insights into how lala women construct identity and belonging within urban Chinese contexts whilst managing societal constraints.
