Dans la seconde partie de cet entretien avec le sociologue Eric Fassin, spécialiste incontournable des questions de genre, il est question de quatre événements vus au prisme des masculinités. L’attentat masculiniste de Toronto, l’exercice du pouvoir d’Emmanuel Macron et de Donald Trump, et le formidable mouvement de libération et d’écoute de la parole des femmes sur les violences sexuelles, c’est à dire les mouvements #balancetonporc et #metoo.Pourquoi souligne-t-on rarement le genre des auteurs de tuerie de masse aux Etats-Unis, alors que 98% d’entre-eux sont des hommes ? La masculinité d’Emmanuel Macron est-elle le nouveau visage de la masculinité hégémonique ? Quels liens entre masculinité et pouvoir ? Comment les mouvements #metoo a fait bouger (ou non) les rapports femmes-hommes ?Enfin, Eric Fassin raconte comment il a commencé à s’intéresser aux études de genre, et dévoile le sujet de d'article qu’il projette d’écrire (spoiler : ça à voir avec une barbe).RÉFÉRENCES CITÉESLa tuerie de l’école Polytechnique de Montréal : le 6 décembre 1989, quatorze Québécoises ont été assassinées simplement parce qu'elles étaient des femmes.“Femmes avec moustaches et hommes sans barbes” (non traduit) : Women with Mustaches and Men without Beards - Gender and Sexual Anxieties of Iranian Modernity, de Afsaneh Najmabadi (2005).RECOMMANDATIONLes oeuvres qui représentent Sainte Wilgeforte (sainte Livrade, sainte Débarras), comme cette statue, visible en l’église Notre-Dame-de-Lorette à Prague, et ce triptyque de Jérôme Bosch - Le martyre de sainte #Wilgeforte, Venise, Gallerie dell’Accademia, vers 1480.CRÉDITSLes couilles sur la table est un podcast de Victoire Tuaillon, produit par Binge Audio.

In her fascinating new book Professing Selves: Transsexuality and Same-Sex Desire in Contemporary Iran (Duke University Press, 2015), Afsaneh Najmabadi, Professor of History and of Studies of Women, Gender, and Sexuality at Harvard University, explores shifting meanings of transsexuality in contemporary Iran. By brilliantly combining historical and ethnographic inquiry, Najmabadi highlights the complex ways in which biomedical, psychiatric, and Islamic jurisprudential discourses and institutions conjoin to generate particular notions of acceptable and unacceptable sexuality. Moreover, she also shows some of the paradoxical ways in which state regulation enables certain possibilities and spaces for nonheteronormative sexuality in Iran. In our conversation, we talked about problems of translation involved in using Western categories in Gender and Sexuality Studies in the Iranian context, the certification process for sex change applicants in Iran, shifting conceptualizations of transsexuality overtime, continuities and ruptures seen in nonheteronormative masculinities in Tehran before and after the 1979 revolution, and the category of the narrative self. This multilayered book is at once lyrically written and theoretically exhilarating. It will be of much interest to students of gender and sexuality, Islamic law, religion and science, and of contemporary Iranian society. It will also make a wonderful choice for graduate and upper lever undergraduate courses on the same subjects. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
