Power is enacted to oppress others, pursue wellness, or resist oppression. For Black people, societal and relational oppression influences racialized and gendered expressions of power within sexual encounters. The current study analyzed power dynamics within Black university students' first and most recent sexual encounters. Using narrative inquiry within a critical paradigm, five narrative strategies were identified within participants' interviews: 1) Offering a Peek into Powerlessness, 2) Detailing Disempowerment, 3) Privileging Stereotypical Power, 4) Reclaiming Power, and 5) Emphasizing Empowered Sex. Racialized, gendered sexual socialization among Black students is discussed. Counseling considerations to increase sexual wellness for Black people are explored.
权力被用来压迫他人、追求健康或反抗压迫。对黑人来说,社会和人际关系中的压迫会影响性接触中权力的种族化和性别化表达。本研究分析了黑人大学生首次和最近一次性接触中的权力动态。在批判范式下运用叙事探究法,在参与者的访谈中识别出了五种叙事策略:1)窥探无力感,2)详述无权状态,3)赋予刻板权力特权,4)夺回权力,5)强调赋权性行为。文中讨论了黑人学生中种族化、性别化的性社会化问题。探讨了促进黑人性健康的咨询考量因素。
