This article examines how demands for the rights of sexual/gender minorities (LGBT) in Israel resonates within discourses on Zionism and Jewish national identity. In recent years, studies on the movement for LGBT rights in Israel have almost exclusively been written from the perspective of Jasbir Puar’s concept of “homonationalism.” Yet these studies have paid little attention to the relationship of local Israeli nationalism, i.e., Zionism, and its connection to homonationalism. This article analyzes the following two examples to demonstrate how right-wing discourses within the LGBT movement, whose presence in the movement has grown significantly in recent years. These are not only associated with the recent homonationalist framework but also Zionism and Jewish national identity.  The first example reveals how the pink triangle located outside the LGBT center in Tel Aviv plays an important role in a discourse seeking to emphasize the connection between homosexual persecution and Jewish victimhood during the show’s (Holocaust) and highlights efforts to reclaim the subjectivity of the Jewish nation. The second example is a placard reading, “You Have a Home,” a phrase originated by Likud Pride, the LGBT organization within Likud. This placard was often raised by members of Likud Pride as they walked in one of Israel’s Pride Marches. This slogan intersects and recalls the colonialist discourse on the establishment of a Zionist Jewish home. These examples indicate that the demand for LGBT rights was co-opted by Israel’s right-wing, as revealed by not only their homonationalist discourses relative to the war on terror, but also in the homonationalist discourses which align with the Zionist colonial discourse that seeks to: 1) rehabilitate and reform the image of the Jewish male citizenry, 2) establish Jewish heteronormative homes and 3) create a secular nation whose citizens enjoy the protection of western human rights.

Control-oriented education is characterized as authoritarianism and groupism, which excludes individuality and makes both teachers and students feel suffocated. However, those in power cling to their vested interests, making scapegoats and claiming that men are sufferers, thereby maintaining the status quo. However, if teachers intend to support students under challenging conditions, having actual dialogues concerning the fact that men suffer as well is necessary for all concerned. In this essay, the author discusses the necessity of escaping from masculinity using case studies on high schools that have shifted from control-oriented education and presents concrete remedies to solve such problem.

Some websites for men advise men in their 50s to approach women in their 20s to 30s. These texts encourage older men, claiming that they are desirable targets for young women's romantic dates. This type of message, also seen in men's magazines, is now widespread, while in reality, women see it as one of the contributors to the pervasiveness of sexual harassment.  Those male writings describe “women's characteristics” solely from their notably unique perspective and judgments. As its example, an author of Theory on Love, a male university professor, writes that men should know women's menstrual cycles because of their preference for men changes before and after their period. He also gives very questionable advice that men should not care if menstruating women reject them because they are too concerned with their blood scent or sanitary items. It is not so strange that this type of message is embraced by those men who learned about women only from adult magazines or porno, having no interaction with real women during their adolescence.  Thus some men talk and write about women's bodies more confidently than women do, and many more men blindly absorb these opinions, not taking into account any women's own perspective. How stubborn men are in their refusal to know the reality!

Raichō Hiratsuka eloquently wrote of her passionate affection for Kōkichi (Kazue) Otake in “Marumado yori: Chigasaki e Chigasaki e (Zatsuroku)” (From the round window: To Chigasaki, to Chigasaki (A miscellaneous note)), an essay published in Seitō (Bluestocking), the first journal written, edited, and published by women in Japan, in August 1912. Scholars and biographers have taken up Raichō’s works in the following years in which she imputes their affair to Kōkichi through identifying her as a sexual invert by referring to the knowledge of sexology and argued that this attitude shift attests to her conversion from a same-sex or (proto-)lesbian relationship to a heterosexual one after meeting with her lifelong male partner Hiroshi Okumura in the same summer. This paper instead investigates their bodily affective eroticism in “Chigasaki e Chigasaki e,” focusing especially on the scene in which Raichō intently looks at Kōkishi’s self-inflicted wound, which Kōkichi allegedly slashed out of her love for Raichō, and Raichō’s visceral reaction to it. Their bodily affective relationship, however, is subject to a transformation after Kōkichi receives a diagnosis of tuberculosis and admits herself to Nanko-in, a sanatorium in Chigasaki, following Raichō’s recommendation. Raichō’s later turnaround can be reformulated as an attempt to deal with the loss of her superior position and access to Kōkichi’s body, which is now given over to Western medicine. Her approach to sexology is based not only on her intention to comprehend their experience in terms of scientific knowledge but also her continued desire to dominate Kōkichi and her body.

本論は、ポストフェミニズム論がどのようなものなのか概略を示し、日本の文脈で読解することを目指した。まず英米のポストフェミニズム論の概要を整理し、加えてネオリベラル・フェミニズム概念を紹介した。次に、ポストフェミニズム論でいう「ネオリベラル・ジェンダー秩序」を日本の政治経済において具体的に考察した。さらに、ポストフェミニズムの状況が変化し、「新しいフェミニズム」と言われている社会現象を分析した。最後に、そのようなポストフェミニズム状況を変革し乗り越えるために求められる視座を「99%のためのフェミニズム」を例として構想した。
