  • More about Sexual Self-Fashioning: Iranian Dutch Narratives of Sexuality and Belonging

Sexuality and gender are important measures of cultural belonging for Muslim immigrants in multicultural Western societies, with acceptance of local norms seen as successful integration and rejection as a sign of failed citizenship. This book explores the sexuality of the Iranian Dutch through ethnographic accounts of premarital sex, homosexuality, and cohabitation outside marriage, highlighting their active engagement in processes of self-fashioning.

Format: Hardback

Publisher: Berghahn Books

Sexuality and gender have come to serve as measures for cultural belonging in discussions of the position of Muslim immigrants in multicultural Western societies. While the acceptance of assumed local norms such as sexual liberty and gender equality are seen as successful integration, rejecting them is regarded as a sign of failed citizenship. Focusing on premarital sex, homosexuality, and cohabitation outside marriage, this book provides an ethnographic account of sexuality among the Iranian Dutch. It argues that by embracing, rejecting, and questioning modernity in stories about sexuality, the Iranian Dutch actively engage in processes of self-fashioning.
