eng	Masculinity in Recent Asian American Queer Fiction	While establishing Asian American masculinity and its variants, sexuality has been closely bound to identity formations stemming from stereotypical images where men were portrayed both as effeminate and hypermasculine. Not linked to the hegemonic masculine whiteness of patriarchal standards, Asianness, and queerness often other Asian American men from the traditional patriarchal system linked to heteronormative masculinity of the majority. The talk discusses two contemporary pieces of Asian American fiction, Ocean Vuong’s On Earth We Are Briefly Gorgeous (2019), and Anthony Veasna So’s collection of short stories Afterparties (2021), focusing on the double oppression (as proposed by Kumashiro 1999) of queer characters stemming from the intersections of racial and sexual identities shaping Asian American masculinities and experiences.	masculinity; heterosexuality; queer; otherness; Asian American masculinity
