La vague migratoire de la République dominicaine à Porto Rico est de plus en plus marquée, étant la plus grande minorité ethnique du pays. Pour qu'une personne décide de partir de son pays cela peut avoir de multiples raisons et l'identité sexuelle peut être une des raisons pour lesquelles les homosexuels décident d'émigrer. L'exode motivé par l'orientation sexuelle se nomme migration sexuelle. Ce phénomène est le produit de la répression, l'oppression et la persécution que subit cette population. Pour l'émigrant, vivre dans un autre pays représente de grands défis parce qu'il doit affronter une nouvelle culture, une nouvelle langue et un nouveau contexte de discrimination. Nous examinons la perception d'un groupe d'hommes dominicains résidant à Porto Rico et en République Dominicaine concernant l'émigration et l'imaginaire du phénomène migratoire respectivement. L'étude présente une analyse qualitative sur la base d'entrevues réalisées avec la participation de 8 hommes résidant à Porto Rico et 15 autres en République Dominicaine. Les participants sont très motivés par la migration, car cela leurs donne l'opportunité d'avoir une meilleure condition de vie, d'exprimer leur identité sexuelle loin d'oppression et de discrimination. Les personnes immigrées à Porto Rico révèlent que le processus est délicat car elles sont obligées de s'éloigner de leurs familles, leurs amis et leurs partenaires. La migration causée par l'orientation sexuelle reste masquée par les discours économiques éclipsant la réalité de la discrimination par l'orientation sexuelle.

This article addresses the relationship between Hindu traditions and the Queer community. First, I seek to understand some elements of Hinduism in the dimensions of gender and sexuality. Then, I present the consequences of colonialism in India and its influences on Hindu religious thought regarding gender issues and point out which elements of postcolonial theory help in this struggle. I address the gender, caste, and nationalism dimensions of Hindutva ideology that dominate India even today, as these neoliberal policies capture the subjectivities, rights, and freedom of the Queer community.
