Violence sexualisée à l’arrivée dans les camps nazis. L’oubli ou le silence des hommes sur les procédures d’enregistrement
Scholars are increasingly uncovering the reality of men’s experiences of sexual violence during the Holocaust. Often defining sexual violence as outright sexual acts such as rape or coerced sex, these scholars’ research has primarily focused on the use of boys and adolescents for continuous, enforc...

Often defining sexual violence as outright sexual acts such as rape or coerced sex, these scholars’ research has primarily focused on the use of boys and adolescents for continuous, enforced sex by older prisoners in the concentration camps. There are, however, many other forms of violence which attack the sexualized and gendered body that survivors inhabit—such as enforced nudity, hair shaving, and body searches. Where these forms of sexualized violence have been recognized as such for women, only recently have scholars begun to afford that same recognition to men. In response, this article unpacks the memory, emotionality, and experience of sexualized violence against men and boys during intake procedures upon arrival in the Nazi concentration camps. Utilizing post-war survivor audio-visual and written testimonies, it traces the steps of these proceedings, reflecting on how men speak about the past in order to illuminate both past event and present emotionality. In the process, the article argues that men’s sexualized experience often goes unrecognized because men and boys neither possess an understanding of nor a vocabulary with which to discuss their sexualized body’s materiality. Through a reconsideration of language, the article unveils the prevalence of sexualized violence in men’s experiences of the Holocaust that otherwise remain hidden due to issues of language, silence, and masculine identity.
