Australian Gay Porn Videos: the National Identity of Despised Cultural Objects
McKee, Alan () Australian Gay Porn Videos: the National Identity of Despised Cultural Objects. International Journal of Cultural Studies, 2(2), pp.
Description
Debates about the local and the global continue to be prominent in cultural studies. By taking an example of Australian lgbtq+ porn videos, which in some ways are convincingly 'local', the paper suggests that previous attempts to define 'the local' - in terms either of textual features or provenance of production - are problematic. It proposes instead the idea of 'persuasiveness' as a way of accounting for 'localness' which does not rely on implications of authenticity.

My parents&#; secret gay porn empire
Growing up in California, Rachel Mason and her brother Josh didn't comprehend exactly what was sold in their unassuming and straight-laced parents' bookstore. They had no idea the bookshop was actually one of the biggest distributors of adult material, specifically gay porn, in the US. The bookshop became a haven for the queer community as Karen and Barry supported homosexual employees throughout the HIV and Aids crisis in the s, all the while hiding the business from family and friends. Rachel, Josh and Karen spoke to Outlook’s Emily Webb. Rachel has made a documentary about their story called Circus of Books.
Seun Kuti is the youngest son of one of Africa's celebrated musical figures, Fela Kuti. Right from the very start some in his family have been putting pressure on him to be as good, or greater, than his father.
We meet the family of neon sign makers who have lit up London's nightlife hotspot Soho. Linda Bracey shows Saskia Edwards around their warehouse of dazzling signs.

Earlier this month, the Pew Research Center published results of a public survey of gay tolerance in 39 countries worldwide. The numbers are fairly unsurprising: While a elevated proportion of respondents in Western Europe and North America answered &#;yes&#; to the question &#;Should world accept homosexuality?&#; not many respondents in the Middle East and Africa agreed with them.

Among the least tolerant nations surveyed was Pakistan, where only 2 percent of those surveyed said society should accept homosexuality. That statistic might be unsurprising, considering that same-sex attracted sex is illegal under the Pakistani penal code. But what is surprising is how those views compare to Pakistani search traffic around gay-porn-related terms.
As of this writing, Pakistan is by volume the world leader for Google searches of the terms &#;shemale sex,&#; &#;teen anal sex,&#; and &#;man fucking man,&#; according to Google Trends. Pakistan also ranks second in the planet (after similarly gay-intolerant Kenya) for volum
Resumen
SALINAS HERNANDEZ, Héctor Miguel.Gay porn made in Mexico. Cuicuilco [online]. , vol, n, pp ISSN
This paper aims to show an overview on the pornography produced in Mexico by and for the male gay group, in the fields of video and film. It is based on the hypothesis that the possibility of creating gay pornography in Mexico is incorporated into the visibility gained from its inclusion in the Sexual Dissidence Movement on a global scale and facilitated by this market as the dominant element in the globalization process. This document presents some theoretical approaches to pornography and its genres, as well as presenting an overview on the international porn industry, with a special emphasis on the North American market; it presents a brief history of gay porn and examines the context and the evolution of Mexican gay porn and its relationship with the visibility achieved by, and through, the movement of sexual dissidence.
