  • Striving for Prestige in Samoa: A Comparison of Men, Women, and Fa'afafine

    Scott W Semenyna, Paul L Vasey•ARTICLE•Journal of Homosexuality•2019•References: 37

    In numerous non-Western cultures around the world, a small but meaningful proportion of individuals occupy alternative gender categories beyond the man/woman binary. A substantial body of past research has shown that feminine, same-sex attracted males in Samoa-a nonbinary gender known as fa'afafine-are more altruistic toward their nieces and nephews than are Samoan men and women. The present study examined the degree to which these kin-directed a…

  • Familial Patterning and Prevalence of Male Androphilia in Samoa

    Scott W Semenyna, Doug P Vanderlaan et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Sex Research•2016•Cited by: 13

    Previous research established that male androphilia (i.e., sexual arousal and attraction to adult males) clusters in families. Some studies find that male androphilia clusters in both the paternal and maternal lines, while others find that it clusters only in the latter. Most of the research investigating the familial nature of male androphilia has taken place in Western cultural contexts that are problematic for such research because they are ch…
