Writing Eastern European Queer Autoethnographies: Sex Acts, Sex Memories challenges the prevailing erotophobia in Eastern European queer studies by exploring post-Soviet sexuality and new queer imaginaries that emerge through sexual experiences.Blending personal sexual experience with cultural critique and sociological inquiry, this book provides an intimate glimpse into queer men’s sexual experiences within the broader context of Eastern Europe’s institutional, political, social, and interpersonal power dynamics that affect queer sex and sexuality. Employing autoethnography to examine queer men’s sexual desires, relationships, and histories, the book offers a nuanced understanding of Eastern European queer masculinities while also responding to urgent global concerns about LGBTQ+ lives amid rising authoritarianism and human rights erosion.Writing Eastern European Queer Autoethnographies: Sex Acts, Sex Memories will resonate with researchers in LGBTQ+ studies, cultural studies, anthropology, and sociology, as well as activists and practitioners working in LGBTQ+ rights and advocacy.
