In this book, the author presents a pioneering ethnographic study on how the roles and perceptions of gay men are constructed in Hong Kong. Through his participant-observation, the author discovers the mechanisms in which sissy gay men experience "double marginalization" in the Hong Kong society in general and in the gay community in particular. By reading this ethnographic work, readers can understand the internal dynamics and interactions of the present Hong Kong gay community, which is fundamental to explore the possibility in the creation of a discrimination-free social environment. (This book is based on a thesis submitted to Tha Chinese University of Hong Kong for the author’s research master degree in Sociology in 2004)
