refugee/asylum status and sexuality through an analysis of the experiences
of gay and lesbian asylum seekers and the dominant notion of sexuality in
the United States. The asylum status determination process, which is a part
of immigration control, has been developed with two different discourses
around an identity-based homosexuality: one is about human rights for
gays and lesbians, and the other is for the exclusion of illegal and deviant
foreigners at the border. Previous studies have pointed out that within this
system, the credibility of gay and lesbian asylum testimony is legitimized
by the dominant US-centered notion of homosexuality, what katyal
（2002）refers as substitutive model of sexuality, and individuals who fall
outside of the accepted paradigms are marginalized. It is not enough to
evaluate the perceptions of gay and lesbian asylum-seekers against this
model of sexuality by mainly studying legal documents and during the
process assume the asylum-seekers are powerless. Research in the form of
interviews was conducted in New York City and produced several accounts
of this problem. The findings show that asylum-seekers are the ones who
make decisions and learn a new concept of sexuality, which in turn aids
them in constructing strategic asylum narratives. Regardless of the fact
that the applicants’ sexualities are uniquely perceived by different notions
in their home countries, during their asylum application and narrative
construction they reduced their sexuality only to what could be
understood as a substitutive model to be gay enough for asylum. However,
they are not fully absorbed by the model because they remind themselves
that sexuality is not the very base of their personality. Not only are they
taking on the dominant notion, but they deal with it in a more complex
context of their lives in their country of asylum.},
