When Albert Yan came out of the closet
LQKLJKVFKRROWRKLVIDPLO\KLVVLVWHUUVW
responded, Albert, lets go boy-watching
together. Yans mother, however, didnt
receive the news with as much enthusiasm.
She sort of still thinks its a phase,
says Yan, a Weinberg and Bienen
sophomore from New Jersey. Its still
something taboo that we dont really talk
about.
Yan also decided to tell his father, who
left the family and broke off contact for a
while after his divorce with Yans mother
when Yan was in middle school. I break
it to him that I have a boyfriend and that
weve been dating for a year, Yan says.
He says, Theres no gay gene in my blood
line. Your mom must have slept with
someone else. Either its just a phase or
youre confused.
Yan hasnt heard from him since.
Yans narrative is just one perspective
among a largely invisible Asian Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual and Transgender
community at Northwestern. But outside
of Northwestern Asian-American LGBTs
have gained increasing visibility across the
globe. New York City allowed an openly
gay contingent to march in its annual
/XQDU1HZ<HDUSDUDGHIRUWKHUVWWLPH
in its 11-year history. Gay and lesbian
Vietnamese-Americans in Westminster,
Calif., also sparked controversy in
)HEUXDU\ZKHQWKH\PDUFKHGIRUWKHUVW
time in the Westminster Tet Parade, a
celebration of the Vietnamese New Year.

While gay Asians and other gay
minority populations face many of the
VDPHGLIFXOWLHVLQDODUJHO\ZKLWHFHQWULF
gay community, there may be some
cultural particularities that add another
layer of obstacles for the Asian LGBT
community.
Because were part of two minorities,
that creates its own set of challenge, says
Ben de Guzman, co-director of programs
IRUWKH1DWLRQDO4XHHU$VLDQ3DFLF
Islander Alliance. On the one hand, were
facing racism in the LGBT community. On
the other hand, were facing homophobia
within our own families.
NORTHWESTERNS GAY ASIAN
COMMUNITY
What community?
That seems to be the overwhelming
response of students when asked about
the visibility of the gay Asian community
on campus. All four of the gay Asian
students interviewed could count on one
hand the number of other gay Asians they
knew at NU, and no one could name a
single Asian lesbian on campus. The gay
scene everywhere is predominately white
or black, Yan says. There really is no gay
Asian community.
Demographics may play a factor. Asian
Americans constitute well over 30 or 40
percent of the student body at schools like
UCLA and UC Berkeley, schools that are

Johnston Chen,
Weinberg senior
Im sure there
are people who
are out there
who dont come
out because they
dont feel like
the other gays
when they go to
Rainbow Alliance
meetings.

the diaspora, Victor Bascara, an AsianAmerican studies professor at UCLA,
says the Confucian emphasis on family
became especially important for Asian
immigrants who
faced discrimination
in the U.S. The
family becomes an
important site of
life in a potentially
hostile society, so
its important to
understand how
much is at stake in a
familys acceptance
or non-acceptance of
a family member,
Bascara says.
Family support
has varied across gay
Asian students at NU.
Johnston Chen delayed telling his parents
because he didnt feel the necessity to
tell his parents. Chen wasnt planning on
getting married soon, but he says a cultural
component played into his postponed
coming-out as well. Im sure part of it
was that I was afraid of bringing so much
shame to the family and honor and blah
blah blah, all that Asian stuff, Chen says.
Other closeted gay Asian students have
approached Chen about their reservations
about coming out to their families. One
guy was like, Im the last guy on my dads
side, so Im the only person to carry on my
family name, so Im really scared about
telling my parents about being gay, Chen
VD\V7KDWUHDOO\H[HPSOLHVDORWRIJD\
Asian thinking that you dont really see
with gay white people, the notion that
you have some sort of obligation to your
family.
Albert Yan says traditional stereotypes
have prevailed among many AsianAmericans, some of whom view
homosexuality as a disease, a phase or a
genetic defect. Several gay Asian students
say homosexuality remains a taboo topic
in conversations with parents, even after
their coming out. A Weinberg senior, who
wished to remain anonymous because
he is not completely out of the closet,
says although his parents were very
supportive, they didnt want the rest of
the family knowing. I feel like I got a
very Asian response, like Dont tell your
grandparents, he said. My parents were
particularly afraid of the whole family
NQRZLQJ,WZDVNLQGRILQVXOWLQJDWUVW
Chen agrees that cultural factors make
coming out for Asians much less focused
on the individual, citing National Coming
Out Day in the U.S. as a more liberating
and individualist-oriented process.
Asians have different values and different
concerns, so our coming-out process needs
to cater to our cultural particularities,
I was afraid of
bringing so much
shame to the
family and honor
and ... all that
Asian stuff.

MEDIA DESIGN
My coursework for this class included three assignments: 1) An
alternative story format for a newspaper page; 2) The concept for a
new magazine and design of its cover and one spread; 3) The concept
and design of an iPad app, which I created as a social networking and
collaboration platform for independent musicians.

spends a lot of time thinking about conflict. Too often, we need an adversary to give us
an understanding of ourselves, he says. If they just blinked out of existence, or started
doing everything that I thought was cool, what would I do? That thought is central to
The Monitor, Titus Andronicus sprawling sophomore LP. Filtered through long-winded
metaphors and references to the American Civil War, the recordpart punk invective,
part permanently hungover introspectionpits Stickles against a number of enemies,
none more dangerous than the frontman himself. Our hero, Stickles preferred term
for the autobiographical role he plays in song, can only hope to defeat or come to terms
with these adversaries if he gets right with himself. As such, it could be difficult to
determine whos fighting whom amid the blood, guts, and self-laceration of Titus show
next Wednesday at the Bluebird Theater. With that in mind, The A.V. Club asked Stickles to discuss some of the more prominent members of The Monitors rogues gallery.
