Happy Friday! I hope you find some pleasure this weekend!

Quoted in this important piece!

Thank you everyone, probably especially the haters, for making Trans Pleasure the #1 new release in General Gender Studies on Amazon!

A lot of people got thoughts about my book that they haven't even read. 😆

In a new book, sociologist Brandon Andrew Robinson calls for abolishing sexual identities. Robinson, an associate professor of gender and sexuality studies at UC Riverside, knows it’s a provocative thesis. news.ucr.edu/articles/202...

Lead author and brilliant graduate student Katherine Alexander has a blog post up about our publication in Gender & Society! thesocietypages.org/ccf/2025/12/...

Are the gays liking heated rivalry? Or just the straight women? Cause show felt mid to me. And how many internalized homophobia storylines do we need? 😴

Working on the next book this morning, and I just got to this quote from one of the youth in our study 😭❤️🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I fear that Cynthia opting up on Fiyerrroooooo in No Good Deed (in a way I’ve never ever heard before) is going to be the highlight of this film for me.

WE JUST KEEP WINNING. (UC President's Postdoctoral Fellowship Program RESTORED!!!!)

Why do letter of recs for grad schools and other places constantly make us input our address?! Like no one cares.

Anyone going to NWSA this week?

Trans Pleasure Coming Soon. Preorder Today!

Reading some sociology published with trade presses to think about the FHAM book

No one prepares you in grad school that the academic life is just writing recommendation letters, especially as you become more senior.

Tomorrow @ UCI

that leftist professor being a...psychologist

Draft index of Trans Pleasure. Preorder today!

Since Canvas is down (from the AWS outage), I figured I'd work on my NWSA presentation.

Have a great weekend everyone ❤️

Procrastinating my second read through of the book proofs by working on a presentation...

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

The latest publication from FHAM is here. And we are in a geography journal! www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Check out the latest issue of Gender & Society, including our FHAM article: "Unionized Against Cisnormativity: How Siblings of Transgender Youth Divest from Family Gender Norms" journals.sagepub.com/toc/gasa/39/5

If you are teaching gender and sexuality courses, LGBTQ courses, or even method courses in the spring, think about assigning Trans Pleasure!

Thanks to University of Oklahoma Sociology Department for having me / but still hook’em!

I should have known that all roads would lead me back to Craigslist. Sort of.

Being Dept. Chair is so much work, but I don't think you fully realize how much work it is/was until you aren't Chair anymore.
