Social scientists have expended substantial effort to identify group patterns of deviant behavior. Yet beyond the ill-conceived treatment of sexual minorities as inherently deviant, they have rarely considered how gendered sexual identities (GSIs) shape participation in deviance. We argue for the utility of centering theories of gender and sexuality in intersectional deviance research. We demonstrate how this intentional focus on gender and sexuality provides important empirical insights while avoiding past pitfalls of stigmatizing sexual minorities. Drawing on theories of hegemonic masculinity, emphasized femininity, and minority stress together with criminological general strain theory, we demonstrate how societal expectations and constraints generate strains among GSI groups that may lead to distinctly patterned deviance, using the case of prescription drug misuse during sex. We employ thematic analysis of 120 in-depth interviews with people who misuse prescription drugs, stratified by GSI. We identify six themes highlighting distinct pathways from strain to misuse during sex for different GSI groups: intimacy management, achieving sexual freedom, regulating sexual mood, performance confidence, increased sense of control, and managing sexual identity conflict. In this article, we demonstrate the empirical and theoretical importance of centering gender and sexuality in deviance research and provide a roadmap for theoretical integration.

将性别和性理论与越轨行为相结合:性行为中滥用处方药的案例

社会科学家花费了大量精力来识别异常行为的群体模式。然而,除了将性少数群体视为天生的越轨者的考虑不周之外,他们很少考虑性别化的性身份 (GSI) 如何影响越轨行为的参与。我们主张在交叉越轨研究中以性别和性为中心的理论的效用。我们展示了这种对性别和性行为的有意关注如何提供重要的实证见解,同时避免过去对性少数群体进行污名化的陷阱。借鉴霸权男性气质、强调女性气质和少数派压力的理论以及犯罪学的一般压力理论,我们展示了社会期望和约束如何在 GSI 群体之间产生压力,这可能导致明显的模式偏差,使用处方药在性行为中滥用的情况。我们对滥用处方药的人进行了 120 次深入访谈的专题分析,并按 GSI 进行了分层。我们确定了六个主题,突出了不同 GSI 群体在性行为过程中从紧张到滥用的不同途径:亲密管理、实现性自由、调节性情绪、表现自信、增强控制感和管理性身份冲突。在本文中,我们展示了在越轨研究中以性别和性行为为中心的实证和理论重要性,并为理论整合提供了路线图。我们确定了六个主题,突出了不同 GSI 群体在性行为过程中从紧张到滥用的不同途径:亲密管理、实现性自由、调节性情绪、表现自信、增强控制感和管理性身份冲突。在本文中,我们展示了在越轨研究中以性别和性行为为中心的实证和理论重要性,并为理论整合提供了路线图。我们确定了六个主题,突出了不同 GSI 群体在性行为过程中从紧张到滥用的不同途径:亲密管理、实现性自由、调节性情绪、表现自信、增强控制感和管理性身份冲突。在本文中,我们展示了在越轨研究中以性别和性行为为中心的实证和理论重要性,并为理论整合提供了路线图。
