A Reignited Love for Wikis

As a college student, I’ve experienced many of my class professors, upon touching on the need to evaluate sources, quickly disallowing the use of Wikipedia as a source for citation in research projects and essays, since, as an encyclopedia that can be edited by anyone (well, apart from locked pages), not all of its content is reliable. As such, I have come to fall out of the habit of even...

MARILYN ROXIE: Postmodernism →

neonsigh: I’m reading this book at the moment - A Teacher’s Introduction to Postmodernism, by Ray Linn and I want to get down some thoughts here while my mind is turning them about - I hope I’ve not gotten anything crucial misinterpreted. I feel like my mind is expanding / exploding at any rate! I’ve already been getting into understanding this theory for awhile and have plodded along...

GENDERQUEER IDENTITIES: Labels vs.... →

gqid: Who wants to be labelled as something one isn’t? Not me. Is there a value to putting a name to one’s own identity, or identities? I think so. I was doing research for the Genderqueer History and Identities project I’m working on and while at the library I came across a book called Understanding Transgender Diversity by Claire Ruth Winter. In the back, there was a glossary and amongst the...

GENDERQUEER IDENTITIES: "It's just a phase." So... →

gqid: Genderqueerness, gender fluidity, bisexuality, and pansexuality, quite different identities that they are, are all sometimes are confronted with the assumption that the above are “just phases” on the way to another identity, generally cisgender status and heterosexuality. Perhaps because these identities appear to exist in the in-between or on the outside. However they’re interpreted, I’m...

GENDERQUEER IDENTITIES: "Isn't everyone... →

gqid: I just had to address this search query I noticed that directed someone to Genderqueer Identities. Here goes: Short answer is no. Implying that everyone is genderqueer is similarly incorrect (and even harmful) as implying that everyone is “really” bisexual or pansexual. Monosexualities,…

GENDERQUEER IDENTITIES: The Non-Binary vs.... →

gqid: Recently, I have noticed a tendency for non-binary to be used as the go-to umbrella term for non-normative gender (gender not along the lines of man or woman, specifically) and as an alternative to genderqueer, and a tendency to perceive genderqueer as a specific identity rather than as an umbrella term. Currently, both of these terms are being, and have been, used in an umbrella capacity,...

gqid: An overview of the survey has been posted and will continue to be expanded here: http://genderqueerid.com/gqhealth Again, I would like to thank everyone for participating! Feedback also made it possible for me to improve the survey in a variety of ways, notably adding romantic orientations and allowing for multiple pronoun preferences to be checked. So far, I’ve gathered charts and...

MARILYN ROXIE: Interview with Marilyn Roxie →

A friend of mine (Angelica) interviewed me for a music class she’s taking - hurrah! Here’s the Q&A session!: What influences in your life inspired you to become a musician? Even though I had grown up with music all around me and played the keyboard since I was little, it wasn’t until I fell in love with video game soundtracks around the age of 8 that I began to think more seriously...
