Zusammenfassung:Now we just whisper to each other -- The twilight of the gods -- Liminal spaces: court and village culture -- Delicious sins: growing visibility -- Shadows in the night: post-reformasi identity politics -- Superheroes and female playboys: butch-femme dynamics -- Politico-religious homophobia: the second sexual moral panic -- Family violence and conversion therapy -- God's creatures: religion and sexual rights -- Heteronormativity revisited
"In this book the history of the LBT movement is charted, from invisibility, to visibility and now again to hiding. The author explores the persistence of the butch/femme model of relationships; the proliferations of identities, family violence and conversion therapy, and religion. The anti-LGBT campaign is also extensively analysed. In its insistence on the local dynamics of this movement, the book aims to debunk the idea that homosexuality is a Western import. It is also a contribution to the growing literature on decolonization studies in pointing out that its dynamics, its historical course and its present condition, different as they are from the dominant Western view on a global LGBT movement, needs to be taken as valuable as accounts of Western LGBT histories are."
