摘要

本論文是作者在1994年12月到1996年6月之間，透過對台灣同志運動長期參與觀察的方式，對台灣女同志們的身份認同思考與運動實踐過程所作的紀錄與詮釋。「女同志」是九O年代才在台灣歷史地表中浮現的一種新身份認同。女同性戀者長期以來在台灣社會中是隱而不見的，而在九○年代以後，年輕一代的女同志學生們從校園內外的女性主義組織中取得了一定的情感資源、知識養份與組織經驗，並且透過打造女同志刊物的過程，以《愛報》、《女朋友》、《我們是女同性戀》這幾份小眾的女同志刊物或讀物為中心，在編輯、寫作、閱讀、回應的過程中，搭建出一個承載認同言說與人際互動的刊物網絡，建構出更為清楚成熟的女同志主體位置，並在其中展現出動態的認同歷程。並且由於這樣的網絡能夠有效提供特定的匿名/現身條件，繼而也構連出一個既緊密又開放、運動性格鮮明的女同志新社群。

Conducted by participant observation on queer politics in Taiwan from Dec. 1994 to June 1996, this paper provides both phenomenal description and critical explanation of Taiwanese lesbians' identification. ”Lesbian” is a kind of emergent identities in Taiwanese society since 1990. Lesbians in Taiwanese society have had a secret, hidden-away existence for several decades. Such situation have been improved since 1990, in which a burgeoning lesbian culture of social grouping, publications and self-naming strategies allow lesbians to ”come out collectively” as never before. Such lesbian culture had formed in some feminist groups, where the lesbian college students obtained emotional assistance, nutrient knowledge and skills for organizing. Later on they published several lesbian readers such as Ai Bao, Nyu Peng Yu, etc.. Through the process of editing, writing, reading and responding, a network by which identical discourses could spread and interaction could occur was built. By this network a new lesbian subjective position was also shaped and the lesbian identitication expended. Meanwhile since the network could provide specific conditions for concealment/disclosure to protect the lesbians, an animated lesbian community thus was configurated.
