Mar. 22nd, 2007 02:51 pm"I am asking for help because our little 'Lesbians and Body Image' issue is too thin : )," writes (to the fat dykes mailing list) Deb Burgard, Ph.D., Guest Editor of a forthcoming issue of the Journal of Lesbian Studies. Here's the CFP:
Journal of Lesbian Studies has reopened its call for submissions for the upcoming "Lesbians and Body Image" issue with a probable pub date of 2007-8.
Deb Burgard, Ph.D., Guest Editor, is welcoming one-page abstracts of articles addressing different aspects of the theme. Articles may raise more questions than they answer, and may range from research to theory, academic to personal, for example:
* Does loving a woman change your own body image?
* Are athletic lesbians more or less accepting of their bodies than non-athletic lesbians?
* How does growing up identifying more with boys affect body image?
* What differentiates body image situations where it is seen as desirable to change your attitude (i.e., "accept your body") vs. where it is seen as desirable to change your body (i.e., transsexual surgery)? What determines whether someone identifies as a butch lesbian or a FTM transsexual?
* How do the differences in attitudes toward weight in different communities (ethnic, class) intersect with differences in attitudes toward lesbianism?
( the rest of it behind here )
I'm tempted to come up with something to submit, cuz not only could it be fun/good to write, but (now) I have a sense submissions are needed. Ha! Unfortunately(?) the first thing that pops into my head would probably give my ex- great satisfaction, were it to get in & she to find out.
bigfinedaddy, would you consider writing something? I just know your writing would rock. And you could contribute to the big fat body of thought on this stuff well, I bet.
In other news, it's been an interesting day at work. Quite apart from that one galley I had to use hard-copy JFM for & do some old-skool sleuthing, only to find LMD had it on hold, so that work may end up having been for nothing.
