Synopsis

COMING OF QUEER AGE IN PUERTO RICO: The Curse of Memory. The author chronicles the first seventten years of his life in a small town in Puerto Rico. Together with accounts of a childhood riddled with physical and verbal abuse Joseph F. Delgado analyzes the social macho-centric context in Latin America that makes it acceptable for men young and mature to have sex with boys without developing a homosexual identity and objectify passive sexual partners for contempt and ridicule. The author further examines how in Puerto Rico inflexible, religion-based conventions prevail in the debate on LGTBQ rights and political participation.
