Abstract

ABSTRACT This article addresses the sexual gap in Chinese migration studies with a multi-dimensional analysis of Chinese migrant young gay men’s urban integration. Based on life history interviews, conducted in Shenzhen, a migrant metropolis in South China, this research examines how this migrant-friendly city offers these migrant young gay men possibilities and at the same time, limits their urban integration by taking economic, social relation and identity issues into account. The author concludes this article with a discussion on sexuality’s constitutive role in shaping the complicated dynamics of Chinese migrant young gay men’s urban integration.
