I spoke with journalist Simon Gramvik about my new publication, for Kilden Magasin. We discussed how autism is used in pushback against trans healthcare. Thank you, Simon, for a respectful and incisive conversation on an important topic. magasin.kildenkunnskap.no/nb/2026/06/f...

(update) I made myself a wee website. It has a little snapshot of my research and my current projects on trans, disability and anti-gender issues. You can find it here: rowanmaddox.com

I have an article out today in Culture, Theory and Critique. In it, I think about how the dominant western way that we think and construct meaning makes autism and trans identities difficult to reconcile. Open access here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

I just want to push my fundraiser page for my dog's injuries one last time: www.spleis.no/485083?s=17765820 Any little helps me to pay back people who helped me and for his continued medical bills, so thank you for anything you can donate :)

Sara E. Sellevold Orning (UiO) was kind enough to write a review of my PhD thesis for Lamba Nordica: publicera.kb.se/lambdanordic... You can find my thesis online, but I am also currently working on turning it into a book, if you can wait 🤓

A beautiful little fire for mice or other small creatures found in a tree aka the fungus called Clavulinopsis fusiformis (or Golden Spindles).

At the start of the year my wonderful, funny, silly dog was in a serious accident. I have made a Spleis to help with the costs of his treatment. I would appreciate if you share this in your networks :) www.spleis.no/485083

I'm proud to be a co-writer of this opinion piece published in Aftenposten today. My colleagues and I raise our concern for the spread of anti-gender politics in Norway and how this creates a discourse of hate towards especially queer and trans people. www.aftenposten.no/meninger/deb...

My new article, which explores the racial logic undergirding the ways gender-critical actors use autism to deny the existence of trans & trans autistic people, is published now through European Journal of Women's Studies. And, it is Open Access. :) journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

If you happen to be in Bergen this Pride week, I will be a panelist, with two exciting scholars (@majabandreasen.bsky.social ‬ and Lívia Gonçalves Buzolin), discussing the Anti-Gender movement. And, my wonderful colleague Sunniva Ária Tobiasen is a panelist on the 18th! Do come along! 🥰

Disabled people have unnecessarily died in their 1000s because of cruel and dehumanising process of welfare assessment and the pittance given if you are deemed disabled 'enough'. The UKs recent decision to cut disability payments will only cause more death and suffering.

V. confused by this job offer at Oslo Met. Maybe I am mis-reading but it appears to critique ABA as deviating from Lovaas' guidelines - ABA legitimized electric shocks for autistic children, tried to make gay kids straight and is generally considered abusive. www.oslomet.no/en/work/job-...

For my first post on here I'd like to share this recent podcast episode I did with the author Luca Espseth. We talk about autism and trans, and the ways that these intersecting identities are being weaponized in the anti-trans movements. (p.s, check out Luca's new book!)
