Negotiating New Asian American Masculinities: Attitudes And Gender Expectations, Peter Chua, Diane Fujino

Faculty Publications, Sociology

The article examines how Asian-American men construct their own masculinities. Changes in Asian-American heterosexual masculinity are of great interest within the Asia-American communities and to the general public. Historically this racialized masculinity was both hypermasculanized and desexualized as a way to limit economic and racial opportunities in the U.S. While these dichotomous ideas about Asian-American masculinities are still pervasive new articulations of what it means to be male, straight, and Asian American are affecting different Asian-American communities and interpersonal relationships at home and in workplaces. Issues of Asian- American masculinities are brought up in relation to interracial dating and marriage, …

Great Suffering, Great Compassion: A Transcultural Opportunity For School Nurses Caring For Cambodian Refugee Children, Teresa L. Tellep

Master's Projects

The unique cultural ways of Cambodian refugee families, combined with the physical and psychological health problems inherent in their refugee experience, present challenging and rewarding opportunities for school nurses to engage in the process of transcultural nursing. The authors discuss the profound and devastating impact of the refugee experience upon the mind, body, and spirit of Cambodian children. The purpose of this exploratory and descriptive study was to understand the nature and meaning of a school district's cross-cultural team's experiences of providing health care for Cambodian refugee children. Focus group interviews of school nurses and Cambodian liaisons were conducted, utilizing …

Does Lara Croft Ware Fake Polygons, Anne-Marie Schleiner

SWITCH

An analysis of the role of gender in the 1996 video game, "Tomb Raider", using multiple theoretical approaches to discuss issues of gender roles and gender identity. The author argues that prior to Tomb Raider, popular games revolved around a male protagonist, but with the introduction of Lara Croft, the gaming world has changed. The article explores the implications of the female protagonist in Tomb Raider, characterizing Lara Croft as a techno-puppet to the male-gaze, a drag queen, a dominatrix, and a powerful feminist role model. Artistic and creative game patches provide an “opportunity for feminists to influence the formation …

Chik Tek Symposium Revisited, Helen Wood

SWITCH

The 1998 article, "Chik Tek Symposium Revisited", by Helen Wood, consists of interviews with female artists who all used technology in their work. The Chik Tek symposium took place in November 1997 at the San Jose Museum of Art where many women would share their works and thoughts through presentations and discussions. The title of the show, "Chik Tek" seemed questionable due to the fact that this show was meant to discuss women, and the equality in their work and the art or tech field. Yet, the title was rather stereotypical for women who wanted to encourage empowerment and feminism. …

A Report On Cyberfeminism, Alex Galloway

SWITCH

A paper highlighting several books that explain theories of “cyberfeminism” by looking at works created by Sadie Plant, Sandy Stone and VNS Matrix. The author highlights written materials like Zeros and Ones (Sadie Plant, 1997) and The War of Desire and Technology (Sandy Stone, 1995) created by cyberfeminists to accredit the innovations of women in technological spaces. Though cyberfeminism has no concrete territory, an argument analyzed by the author entertains the idea that “technology is inherently feminine”, despite the male dominated industry of technology. The author also highlights Stone’s idea that female and queer-friendly bodies inhabit virtual spaces online which …

Editors Notes, Christine Laffer

SWITCH

This article describes the gender roles in technology. It gains awareness in our society that only men seem to be involved in technology. But in fact, women had the same contribution to this area. For example, the report illustrates the role of women in a symposium called "Chi Tek '97" in San Jose, California. According to the article, "participants discussed various aspects of women artists working in/with technology, including whether women needed to have a gender-specific forum at all”. This means women had the same role as men did and more contributions in art and tech. To illustrate, Anne-Marie Schleiner …
