In Tomatlán, a small city on the Mexican Pacific Coast there is a tolerance zone in which a group of sex workers, separated from the rest of the city by a garbage dump, offer their services to local men. The women present themselves materially and symbolically as agents of regulation with respect to male sexuality, itself constructed as overwhelming and insatiable, which, were it not for services provided by the sex workers, would threaten the family-based social order. Through in-depth interviews with 19 sex workers and 5 municipal officials, this paper discusses how the sex gender system results in a series of borders that are both geographical and subjective. Such borders have to do with periphery and control, body and intimacy, and the boundaries of animality.
在墨西哥太平洋沿岸的小城托马特兰,有一个宽容区,一群性工作者在那里为当地男性提供服务。她们与城市其他区域被一个垃圾场隔开。这些女性在物质和象征意义上都将自己呈现为男性性行为的规范执行者,而男性性行为本身被建构为具有压倒性且贪得无厌的,若没有性工作者提供的服务,这种性行为会威胁到以家庭为基础的社会秩序。通过对19名性工作者和5名市政官员的深入访谈,本文探讨了性别制度如何导致一系列地理和主观层面的边界。这些边界涉及边缘与控制、身体与亲密关系以及动物性的界限。
