Nowadays,in China,people aren't afraid tremendously of homosexuality like twenty or thirty years ago.Since homosexuality was excluded from the international classification of mental illness,people are willing understand and face this topic instead of fearing it.Though,under the influence of Confucian culture,Chinese traditional society asks every man of prime marrying age to get married and continue the family line,homosexuals are no exception.If they listen to their parents,get married and have children blindly,not only can they get no happiness themselves,but cause other problems as well,such as psychological problems of homosexuals and etc.Because of Chinese huge population and the development of modern network,the number of Chinese homosexuals is increasing.More than a few of them choose marriage of convenience,however,there are few cases and studies about it.Complying with the social development,the timely appearance of formal marriage seems like a lifesaver for homosexuals,but the internal culture and rules still need serious discussion.The author uses Family Life Cycle as the theoretical perspective,adopted the method of in-depth interview and participation observation,chose eight clients in a snowballing way and then did explorations about family priority of pseudo-targeted families which formed by the homosexuals through formal marriage.The conclusions are as follows:Firstly,according to the family life cycle theoretical model,the pseudo-positioned family will be analyzed vertically in three stages:initial formation,over-development,and disintegration.Secondly,according to analyses of family life cycle and the state about the relationship of the three family models above,it can be concluded that pseudo-positioned family members will come up with different solutions in different periods and in different situations when they face with different problems,and then different modes of interaction produced.There are four interactive modes,namely non-interference mode,harmonious behavior mode,and statutory obligations.Thirdly,the author found out that the authentic family and the original family are critical to all the life cycle stages of pseudo-positioned family,the relationship of them is inseparable.Through the further description of their relationship,the Interactive mode of pseudo-positioned family can be better refined.Through the analysis of the patterns above,the author use family priority as a theoretical analysis tool,selected a typical life cycle to explain why pseudo-positioned family will choose different interactive modes in the same or different circumstances.It also better explains the conflicts between interactive modes.Finally,through the discussion of the whole article,the author puts forward some personal views on the formal marriage of homosexual groups and pseudo-positioned family,then summarized and reflected.The author hopes to give some inspiration to homosexuals through this article.
