"This is not about defining what is a woman, but who is a citizen in our society with the right to self ownership and autonomy and the integrity of their body and mind. You can tell it is a question of citizenship from the fact that trans people were not allowed to represent our interests..."

In this piece, which I am proud of and I stand by every word, I make two serious criticisms of the procedure that the Supreme Court adopted. goodlawproject.org/the-supreme-...

Many Americans UNDER-estimate racial inequality in US (see work by @mwkraus.bsky.social @jaricheson.bsky.social et al) In reality, racial disparities are still HUGE, with little improvement. (see below) equitablegrowth.org/examining-th... #PrejudiceResearch #racism

One year ago today I passed my viva! Cannot for the life of me believe how time flies! (The date stamp is on the 15th because I posted late on here)

I should mention that if you’ve enjoyed this paper on cultural capital and body image I’m reposting, you might find our parallel paper on objectification and body image amongst White working-class women interesting! They’re from the same larger project :) doi.org/10.1177/0361...

CTSG board member @profcdllewellyn.bsky.social’s new paper on the complex social, cultural and psychological drivers of the ‘chemsex’ experiences of men who have sex with men: a systematic review and conceptual thematic synthesis of qualitative studies is now available to download ⬇️

Congratulations to CTSG board member @jamiechan.bsky.social on the publication of this important paper - “Presentable for the outside world”: Social class, cultural capital and body image amongst White working-class women in the United Kingdom

Literally cannot wait to share this ✨new publication✨ with y’all. doi.org/10.1016/j.bo... Tl;dr. White working-class women’s body image is rooted in appearance norms, rather than appearance ideals (they are conceptually different). Super important to consider intersectionality of class x gender

Really looking forward to my postfeminism and body image seminar next week because my students will be learning about constructionism through this song: open.spotify.com/track/01pswL... And discourse analysing excerpts from the Barbie screenplay!! ✨💄💅🏼🛼🎀

Being back from holiday straight into Week 1 of the new semester meant that I’ve been sharing these lovely pics at the start of every single one of my teaching session this week (secretly wishing I was still in the Mediterranean sun).

Can’t believe it’s been a full year since I started my role at the University of Brighton. How time flies! ⏳

Had a great day at the University of Exeter presenting some findings on social class and body image, followed by a lovely chat with folks at the Gender & Sexuality Research Collective. Even the sun made an appearance! ☀️ Thanks for organising @metesefauysal.bsky.social and @drmorganalw.bsky.social!

🗣️ Participants needed for my student's study We are looking for UK-based folks (18+ years) to take part in an online experimental survey to explore the effects of social media content on body image and eating attitudes. To learn more and take part, click here: bit.ly/eatsocialmedia

Tangentially related, but when you do a search on Google, you can end your search request with “-ai” and no AI results will come up, saving the earth water and you the headache of having to see unhelpful results.
