清代內閣刑科題本中的相關檔案可以看作是男風在法律文本中的表述。在這類文本中,男風表現為男性之間的同性關系,具體可分為偶然型、同伴型與隱居型三類。偶然型指男性之間的同性性行為的發生頻率只有幾次的同性關系;同伴型指男性在特定條件下由于共同參與一件事情而產生的同性關系;隱居型指僧道等出家人之間發生的持續時間較為長久且鮮為外界所知的同性關系。這幾種同性關系結束的原因分為財物紛爭、相處不合、關系曝光、他人介入與知恥拒絕五類。通過對上述同性關系的分析,可以發現清代男風在鄉村社會中的傳播方式。

The records of the Punishment Board of the Qing court illustrate how male homosexual relationship was narrated in legal texts. In these records,the male homosexual relationship can be categorized into three kinds: accidental,accompanying,and monastery-related. The accidental relationship only took place in a few times. The accompanying relationship happened when the two male were doing things together. The monastery-related homosexuality last even longer and was seldom known by others. The homosexual relationship ended for financial,emotional,moral and social reasons. The analysis of these records shows how the male homosexuality was spread in rural society in the Qing period.
