One danced a seventeen-year tango as part of a love triangle. Another vowed that in her next life, she would be a gay man.

Although their spaces were hidden, they were uniquely theirs: the Paris Theatre in San Po Kong, Disco Disco in Sheung Wan, women-only evening schools, and the bamboo theatres or playhouses where Yam Kim-fai and Pak Suet-sin operas were performed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those of us born after 1990 also have our own spaces: Victoria Park and surrounding streets in Causeway Bay, university campuses, the West Kowloon Cultural District, gender organisations in Kwun Tong industrial buildings and other areas of Kowloon. In our generation\u2019s spaces, sexuality and desire flow freely; in the spaces of our generation, being queer does not require concealment\u2014our era is a fluid and open carnival (even though it has faded into decline after 2020).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our time is full of imagination and possibilities for diverse genders and sexualities. Yet this imagination is constantly awakened by the word &#8220;will&#8221; in this book (which appears thirteen times). Older lesbian women are inevitably closer to death and must endure the decline of their bodies while envisioning future spaces. As young lesbians, as time passes, love, coming out, and affirming one\u2019s gender identity have become lived experiences. What will our future look like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is unknown, but one thing we share with older lesbians is that we will keep memories of embracing our lovers at home and every poem written for the ones we love. I wholeheartedly recommend In Unison and Harmony: Oral History of Older Lesbian Women in Hong Kong to &#8220;our&#8221; community and everyone else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2500\u2500Mx Erica\/Erics, ONEBOOKHALF Gender Safe Space<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-523e25c5 wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color has-base-background-color has-background is-vertical is-content-justification-stretch is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-0632c093 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-color:#E40982;border-width:1px;border-radius:8px;min-height:100%;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60)\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Identifying as a lesbian is not a prerequisite for engaging in same-sex relationships. For these women who love women, their experiences are a matter of serendipity. Their lives resemble a film, unfolding like a cinematic narrative\u2014smooth and seamless, with moments of brilliance that cannot truly be appreciated until the very end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2500\u2500Tong Ping-an, Board Member, Taiwan Tongzhi Hotline Association<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-523e25c5 wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color has-base-background-color has-background is-vertical is-content-justification-stretch is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-0632c093 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-color:#E40982;border-width:1px;border-radius:8px;min-height:100%;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60)\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five love stories and three academic essays come together to weave the life stories of older lesbians in Hong Kong. Through this book, we learn about their long and winding searches for love, their struggles with sexual and gender identity, their complex relationships with family, and their reflections and preparations as they face the passage of time.

Denise told me that the interviews spanned several years, from initial introductions to deeper connections. I believe this process is the most moving part of writing or research.<br\/><br\/>The key interviewees in the book\u2014Ah On, Ah Po, Theo, Yeung-Yeung, and Pearl\u2014are vividly portrayed, speaking candidly and without pretense as they recount their pasts. At times sorrowful, at times passionate, sometimes masculine, sometimes feminine, their stories lead us through different eras. We journey from black-and-white films to colour cinema, from factory workers to office executives, from brick-like mobile phones to dating apps. Seasons change, decades pass\u2014sixty or seventy years in the blink of an eye. The once-na\u00efve young have become elders with white hair. Although they now carry walking sticks, their voices remain resonant, and their memories as vivid as ever.<br\/><br\/>The weight of time makes these extraordinary interviews transcend mere personal retrospection or circulation within the lesbian community. Instead, they belong to society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2500\u2500Mary Wong, Hong Kong writer and Associate Professor of Chinese, Lingnan University<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-523e25c5 wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color has-base-background-color has-background is-vertical is-content-justification-stretch is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-0632c093 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-color:#E40982;border-width:1px;border-radius:8px;min-height:100%;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60)\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using rigorous fieldwork methods to explore the emotions and desires of queer women might sound detached, but Denise Tang and Ng Wing Yan handle the subject with just the right touch. They create an environment where interviewees feel comfortable enough to speak openly and honestly about everything, which is also a testament to the researchers\u2019 approachability. Reading this book reminds me of Travis Kong\u2019s Oral History of Older Gay Men in Hong Kong. That book was an eye-opener for me, but reading In Unison and Harmony evokes an inexplicable sense of care and concern\u2014perhaps because I can\u2019t help but think of myself or the friends around me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2500\u2500Lo Yu, author of Rong Rong and Grafting Methods<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide has-secondary-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"line-height:1.5\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-base-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-d9db14a070005e5b10e3418f1d8b9c14 is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In Unison and Harmony&#8217;s Notebook<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--10)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-query alignwide is-layout-flow wp-block-query-is-layout-flow\">\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--10)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--10)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Praises and Reviews<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized has-custom-border is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.openbook.org.tw\/sites\/default\/files\/openbook_logo_1.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;border-radius:0px;aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:contain;width:200px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the essay &#8220;50+ Quest for Love,&#8221; the protagonist Yeung-Yeung, who is over seventy, gains a deeper understanding of issues surrounding elder care and life after death following her mother&#8217;s passing. She worries about the possibility of becoming incapacitated or having to move into a care home. To ensure her partner, who is 20 years younger, can face such challenges calmly, Yeung-Yeung reflects on the lack of legal protection for partners in matters of inheritance and the right to make emergency medical decisions on behalf of one another.

The five protagonists, mostly born in the 1950s, lived through the glitz and parties of the 1980s. Their lives were shaped by queer icons of the time, such as Yam Kim-fai and Leslie Cheung, while also being constrained by Confucian family values and patriarchal systems. Benefiting from the economic growth and internationalisation of the era, they managed to achieve relatively independent and self-sufficient lives, creating space for themselves as &#8220;unmarried women.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theinitium.com\/article\/20240628-interview-book-aging-lesbian-hk?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=tw_post\">Yi Xiaoai<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theinitium.com\/article\/20240628-interview-book-aging-lesbian-hk?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=tw_post\">28 June 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u3000<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u3000<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How did Hong Kong women born between the late 1930s and the late 1950s define love and intimacy?
