Hommes homosexuels, identité sexuelle, école des études supérieures, étudiants du cycle supérieur, expérience scolaireRésumé
Les expériences de trois étudiants masculins du cycle supérieur qui s’identifient comme homosexuels ont été explorées afin de comprendre le rôle que l'orientation sexuelle jouait dans leur vie scolaire. Grâce à des entretiens semi-structurés, les participants ont pu partager leurs expériences en tant qu’étudiants masculins gays du cycle supérieur, et les effets sur leur expérience éducative. Une approche modifiée basée sur la théorie ancrée (« grounded theory ») a servi à l’analyse des entretiens retranscrits. Trois thèmes principaux s’en sont dégagés : a) le choix de divulguer son identité sexuelle en milieu scolaire ; b) les défis rencontrés dans le cadre des interactions avec les pairs ; et c) les avantages d’être un étudiant masculin gay au cycle supérieur. Les résultats suggèrent que la gestion et l'expression de son identité sexuelle sont des processus importants qui interagissent avec plusieurs aspects de la vie des étudiants homosexuels masculins.
