I've had 3 desk rejects from Gender & Education over the years, so that makes it even more special to share my new publication with Signe Vogel in that journal 🥳 It's called "Knowing or philosophizing? An epistemic injustice perspective on gender inequalities in academia" 🔗 doi.org/10.1080/0954...

I published a new essay! 😍 Had so much fun writing this... If you're a back-talking killjoy single as well, let me know what you think! doi.org/10.5117/TVGN...

✨ As #singlehood is rising, it deserves more scholarly attention - moving beyond its framing as a byproduct of coupledom. 📚 Our new issue therefore explores #intersectional singlehood and what it teaches us about power, identity, and belonging. 📖 Read now: www.aup-online.com/content/jour...

#timelinecleanse This is Müsli, my new PhDog student 🥰 She dreams of becoming a pupfessor of gender studies when she grows up 🐾 Boop for good luck on our journey ❤️ @weratedogs @musli.with.two.dots on insta 📸

Picture shows a small dog with a shiny black coat, yellow pawsies and two yellow dots over her eyes (one over each eye). Her ears are flopsy but listening and alert. She is sitting in the grass being a very good girl.

Helping a great colleague prepare for her PhD defense, I realised that she cites a co-authored paper of mine which I had kinda forgotten about 🥰 Having just reread it, it's not too bad, so I thought it deserves a share! It's on doing ethnography via Zoom/Teams 👩‍💻 www.emerald.com/insight/cont...

Well, that was a fun little rabbit whole 🐰 (special issue will be published in September 2025) by @tvgenderstudies.bsky.social

In this special issue, the terms ‘singleness’ and ‘singlehood’ will both be used. While they are sometimes used interchangeably, their meanings slightly differ given the different connotation of their suffixes. The suffix ‘-ness’ typically refers to a quality that is an important - perhaps valued - aspect of something or someone (see Quora). The suffix ‘-hood’ rather concerns a state or condition. A state, in turn, covers particular ‘circumstances or attributes at a specific time that the person or thing is in, e.g. state of health, state of mind’, whereas a condition ‘has a degree of reference to the circumstances surrounding or affecting that state, e.g. poor living conditions’ (Quora, no page number). Given the latter connotations of ‘singlehood’, we will use this term consistently in this editorial, however, other authors in this special issue may adopt ‘singleness’ considering its more positive association. Accordingly, we welcome differences in terminology use throughout the articles and essays of this issue, as these may also stem from disciplinary differences and are therefore at the heart of embracing the messiness of studying single people’s experiences (see Vertelyte, this issue).

Frejas og min artikel får igen lidt medieopmærksomhed - med endnu en irriterende headline! Vores fokus var aldrig kritik for kritiks skyld 🙄 Vi forsøgte at forstå tendensen. (bag betalingsmur) www.kristeligt-dagblad.dk/danmark/fler...

kristeligt-dagblad.dk

Flere kvinder skriver barslen på cv'et. Men tendensen vækker kritik

Barslen er gået fra at være et hul i cv’et, til at flere kvinder nu skriver det ind som en kompetence. Grænsen mellem det at være menneske og arbejdskraft er udvisket, mener kritiker

Anybody who knows of papers on why we need to call sexism sexism and not gender inequality? - and how if we don’t we are potentially hampering the transformative potential of our analysis/critique of social relations and organisations. Same for difference vs injustice, maybe? cf. epistemic injustice

📣 Can you help me find a recent article whose title starts with a quote "...." - I believe it's about how journal reviewers use positivist criteria to critique and reject non-positivist manuscripts. I think it was published within the last couple of months, maybe in a higher education journal 🕵️‍♀️

Wached Netflix’s new crime series “Missing you” tonight, great cast but… 🚨 spoilers ahead 🚨 it amazes me the lengths that shows will go to to avoid a female protagonist ending up happily single 🤦‍♀️ Not only did the love interest/former fiancé leave without a trace 11 years ago, no word if he’s dead…
