*Call for Papers: Journal of Bodies, Sexualities, and Masculinities *

Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis



*Editors: Drs Jonathan A. Allan, Frank G. Karioris, and Chris Haywood*



We are delighted to invite submissions the *Journal of Bodies, Sexualities,
and Masculinities*. The journal aims to bring together “critical studies of
men and masculinities” and “sexuality studies.” More specifically, the
journal provides a venue for research on bodies, sexualities and
masculinities and all of their complexities -- temporal, medical,
geographic, cultural, ethnic, legal - by welcoming submissions from the
social sciences, humanities, life sciences, and health studies that are
theoretically rigorous, methodologically sound, and draw on
interdisciplinary approaches. It will provide a dialogue that will not only
report cutting edge empirical research findings, but will also be a forum
for new theoretical, methodological and analytical insights.



Building on two successful conferences – ‘Doing Sex: Men, Masculinities,
and Sexual Practices’, July 2017 at the University of Newcastle; and
‘Bodies, Sexualities, and Masculinities, the American Men’s Studies
Association’s 2018 Annual Conference – the journal will be at the forefront
of research and scholarship in its field. Work on these topics is more
pressing and prescient than ever before and the journal aims to create a
space for scholars not only to be developing and building upon existing
approaches in the field, but also to be innovative, to be risky and
challenging by presenting new ideas and alternatives ways of seeing and
understanding. As editors, we are fully aware that the academy is not a
meritocracy. Thus, in part, the ethos of this journal is to welcome
submissions that  cover a wide breadth of topics, theories, and contexts,
from scholars and researchers at various stages of their careers.



We welcome all submissions on these and many other topics, including but
not limited to:



·      Qualitative, quantitative, and historical analyses of issues related
to masculinities, bodies, and sexualities

·      The interplay between the body, sexual identities and sexual
identifications, and

masculinities;

·      Explorations of literary, filmic and arts-based representations of
the body, maleness and sexualities;

·      Intersections with race, disability, class, nationality, ethnicity,
Trans, and other sites of

identity with sexualities and masculinities;

·      Transgression, disgust, desire and the cultural politics of the
erotic;

·      Methodological issues, ethics and the practice of doing research on
and with the body;

·      Understanding men and women’s sexual practices within heterosexual,
bisexual, gay and lesbian and queer contexts;

·      Documenting the role of institutions such as education, the family
and work in producing and regulating bodies, sexualities and masculinities;

·      Studies of porn, BDSM, swinging, non-monogamy, dogging, fetish, sex
tourism; polyamory, queer heritages, and online and mobile sexual
communities and cultures.



The editors welcome enquiries and queries regarding appropriate and
relevant subject areas.

Manuscripts should follow the requirements laid down in the Submission
Guidelines. This is particularly important in relation to in-text citations
