Stigmatisation et identification des pratiques homosexuelles masculines à travers des membres des classes populaires parisiennes au cours de la première partie du xixe siècle
Abstract
Stigmatisation of the male homosexual pratictes and the identifications through limbed of the parisian popular classes during the first part of the XIXth centuryDuring the first part of the xixth century, the male homosexuality is stigmatized through the figure of the pederast. He becomes a symbolic face of the disorder, related to diverse social plagues. The forensic scientists build a character personifying the malpractice of a sexual order. However, these speeches have a real impact on certain men stemming from urban lower classes? We distinguish perfectly two types of men in certain files of police. Certain feminine are decked out by aunt's qualifier. Others are not decked out by this qualifier and would correspond to those whom Georges Chauncey names Trades: they answer to the requests of the aunts. Furthermore, certain liberties of attitudes, as well as the development of the male prostitution could demonstrate the weight limited by the stigmatizing speeches.
