A flyer for my LEX Public lecture featuring my photo and the abstract/info for the talk (it's also in the link so I won't type it out here). I am a white femme person with short brown curly hair and black glasses. I'm smiling at the camera wearing a multicoloured keffiyeh over a stripy top and one of my floral tattoos is just visible.

My Official Young Friend @jamologies.net tells me there's a rise in cassette tape uptake and DIY culture among younger queers also. (Jamie is my correspondent from the world of Gen Z)

It's criminal that our English curriculum doesn't discuss how many of our nation's greatest poets and writers were alcoholic perverts that had WWE-style rivalries with one another.

Giuliana's book, Neoliberal Feminism and the Discourses of Self-Improvement, is a fascinating insight into the way we are coopted by the society in which we live into thinking that success must be individual and at the expense of others, rather than collective through solidaristic praxis.

I don't have a haircut booked until Thursday lunchtime and I have to lecture twice, looking like Electric Wilde, before then 😱 Gonna have to lean into it and dandy up?

I am two weeks overdue for a haircut due to being sick and I look a bit like Oscar Wilde, and a bit like Oscar Wilde stuck his finger in a plug socket.

Oscar Wilde. He is a white man with floppy curly dark hair, slightly longer than a usual man's cut, and pushed back from his face. He is wearing a velvet suit, silk cravat, and a coat with a fleecy fur collar. It is a black and white photo.

Today I must revamp some lecture slides on gender and sexuality in IHRL. I have given this lecture so many times over the past five years or so (with slight updates every year) that I could potentially do it in my sleep. And might, if I remain this tired for the rest of the week. Zzzzzz.

I do not wish to be awake, but at least I am starting the day with a meeting to decide on dissertation marks (I like marking dissertations). Postponed from last week due to lurgy. I am still so far behind on everything else.

Do I know any photographers in Bristol who will work with academics who don't like getting their photo taken? (aka I think I probably need a professional headshot)

Myself and @sandraduffy.bsky.social are looking for people to come talk at the @slsauk.bsky.social annual conference in April. We want people to come and discuss what we're describing as trans/gender legal histories. Please get in touch if you have ideas you'd like to explore. www.slsa.ac.uk/streams

Trans/Gender Legal Histories

We are looking for papers that take a socio-legal approach to legal gender history, asking not only what the law was but also how the law was informed by and informed social life, including but not limited to activist work. We are looking for papers exploring legal histories of gender and of transness, and this can encompass for example both histories of trans law, and gender history written through a transfeminist lens. Transfeminist histories are particularly welcome, but we do not understand transfeminism as being restricted to the transfeminine. We understand transfeminist legal history as any legal historical work which operates via a method sitting at the intersection between trans studies and feminism. We also understand transfeminism as existing in a fundamentally intersectional mode, and so would welcome intersectional trans and gender histories, including papers exploring intersections with questions of race, disability, and so on. We would also welcome papers exploring trans futurities in law as read through legal history. We are keen to use this space to support underrepresented scholarly communities, including junior scholars, doctoral students, and those experiencing precarity.
