The Influence Of Internet On The Homosexual Interaction And Identity

Under the globalization background,the economic and social overall transformation of contemporary China is root cause why the homosexual interactive way and identity has changed. The change of interactive way is the direct reason of identity changes, and then it obeys the rule which a new identity defines.This text aims at the changes of homosexual interaction way and the redefiniton of identity in the new social interaction. Through the interview survey with the highly educated youth homosexuals on the net and under the net, according to the foreign queer theory and the local homosexual research, I make a deep analysis how the Internet deeply changes the homosexual interaction,and how the Internet affect the homosexual identity.I think,when we are taking steps to improve the homosexul rights,we should also pay attention to the problem of identity in the daily life.It's very meaningful and importment.The article's main contents can generalize for the following two parts: 1. The influence of Internetnternet on the way of homosexual interaction For the homosexuals, the Internet is a very important and special medium for the person who can't directly get in touch with homosexual community in the life. In the Internet they become friends with each other,comfort mutually and communicate, promote friendly relations, catharsis of emotion etc., and these activities become the indispensability part in their social life. The development of Internet and the emergence of the society, economy and political network in the electronics space, indicate the construction or purchase of society capital and development of modern era already arrivaling. The social relation can surmount the stipulation of geography political boundary now, activiters can exchange quickly when they want to exchange.We can put the internet as social capital what can be conducted, that contributes to help minority community and edge communit.Because on a certain meaning, the internet provide an equal opportunity for activities to obtaine social capital.For example,for the Chinese homosexuas who can't obtaine enough normal, freedom to acquire society capital , the internet provided a kind of new important way and path .2.The influence of Internet on the homosexual identity Now highly educated youth homosexuals have already awared and used the Internet to communicate.Because the Internet have various advantage such as convenient, fast and hidden etc., these people mostly use the network to associate with other homosexual and identify.Internet is not only the foundation for homosexual associate but also a basic medium to know himself, so the Internet is obvious for them.The influence of the Internet upon these people usually change and affect imperceptibly.Just like they say themselves,the things they experience throgth the Internet have certain meaning to themselves, that is to let them think more.New interactive way requests a new identity, while the new identity again redefine behavior rules and institution.In China, homosexual identity construction mostly come from their daily life world, rather than the homosexual social movement. Public identity may not be the most important meaning. The meaning of public lies only to the society but not to the homosexual community.Homosexuality is created by the society rather than choosen by themselves, so only to society and surroundings the environment express sex identity just be regarded as real public, and have a function of solidify the strength in the social movement.Chinese homosexual unconcerned homosexual society movement,it has a direct relation with their identities approbation.Their comprehension to the identity is mainly according to daily life rather than politics.One of the important reason is that they worry the identity exposing may bring some unnecessary troubles.They think that to have their own life is enough.Although sometimes life isn't always what they like, there is no big deal. The homesexual marriage without the acception of the family and society will be meaningless, they feel the problem still be unresolved ,so they would rather sacrifice some rights which originally should belong to their own to exchange quieter life, and they feel that this kind of daily life is in accordance with their own purpose. This perhaps have a certain relation with the race characteristic of Chinese, but the deeper reason may be Chinese tradition is in need of a kind of idea with citizen society and civism.They only pay attention to their personal life and private interests, and won't break rules to establish new order easily.So they won't persist to pursue their rights, obligations, responsibilities, honest objects, approbation and behaviour rules.Although the homosexuals concern their own life more,they also introspect in the daily life,this has a relation with the persons they know and the affairs they experience.Every affair and person will make them think theirslves .Therefore, for the society definition of homosexual, homosexuals think it is acceptable as long as there's no moral discrimination,at more times they only concern oneself how to treat sexual identity .Whether they are the supporters of Fundamentalism or Constructionism, Chinese homosexuals think themselves just be different from heterosexual in the sexual preference,they would not like to, even not think themselves have essential differences with others. The rational understandings of this kind are hard to imagine, and are worthy of recognition.Under the social realistic condition of China, persistently pursuing the political value of sex identity but neglecting its meaning in the life world will lose the ultimate purpose of homosexual research. Firstly,the identity is constructed but not originally existed;Secondly, homosexuals don't care much about the symbolic meanings of the words and phrases, what they think more important is the homosexual behavior and emotion,which really exists in the life world. Perhaps this will be lack of ideological support in the homosexual political and social movements,but these movements will finally return to the life world,and only this is the essence appearance that the mankind exists.
