Youth Homelessness and Survival Sex: Intimate Relationships and Gendered Subjectivities (Youth, Young Adulthood and Society)

Juliet Watson

4.9/5 (20406 ratings)

Description:Survival sex, commonly understood to be the exchange of sex for material support, is a practice that is associated with young homeless women. However, such a narrow definition of survival sex fails to recognise the multiple, complex, and co-existing motivations of young homeless women for engaging in intimate relationships in post-industrial capitalist society.Within Youth Homelessness and Survival Sex, Watson's insightful analysis of personal narratives reveals how young homeless women are exposed to situations in which survival can be impeded or assisted by playing out specific gender roles. Indeed, in identifying and contesting the dominant social discourses that young homeless women draw upon to frame their experiences of intimate affairs, Watson challenges the reader to understand how gendered subjectivities are produced and performed through heteronormative relationships. Consequently, this enlightening monograph is vital in presenting how homelessness is not a gender-neutral phenomenon and that there are gender-specific processes and practices involved in the navigation of poverty, violence and social exclusion.A timely monograph, Youth Homelessness and Survival Sex will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as postdoctoral researchers, interested in fields such as Homelessness, Youth Studies, Social Work, and Gender Studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
