Hi! I'm Dr. Beck & I'm an award-winning educator and researcher. I primarily research the intersecting characteristics that impact the gaining and losing of male privilege through the eyes of transgender folk! Ask me anything! Lets connect!

Also want to add the unique disappointment that comes from wanting celebrated by folx who genuinely cannot understand what I do because they just don’t have the space in their lives to learn the wacky complexities of mine: “ #Research #Pedagogy #Grants #Service #Tenure #ASA “
These are just words.

I’m a #PhD, but I came from the mud. That’s where my ppl are from + at. I help when I can, but there’s always a struggle. My life is getting better and I want to talk about it but I feel like I’m bragging. I want to be celebrated. I want validation. But I worry I’m creating distance. What do I do?

Just awful, clearly an attack on global knowledge exchange by the administration. I feel so sorry for these #Fulbright FINALISTS whose applications were rejected simply because they discussed diversity, climate change, and of course any mention of gender in their proposals.
Fulbright Applicants Rejected Over “DEI” Research Proposals
The Trump administration staged an unprecedented intervention in this year’s Fulbright selection process, rejecting finalists whose research deals with race, gender or climate change.

I did it! I successfully delivered a public lecture on my original research at #Dartmouth. It went really well and I received excellent feedback.
Also, notice how when I googled the location of my talk my event was the first result returned on Google. Wow!

Phenomenal interview!
Great interview: @ebharrington.bsky.social, economic sociologist and author of 'Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism', joins Jon Stewart to discuss modern American oligarchies, tech billionaires' #broligarchy, and the need for a labour coalition to challenge the system.

Is anybody else watching AP Bio on Netflix?
Glenn Howerton plays Jack Griffin, a recently disgraced former Harvard philosophy professor who doesn’t get tenure and ends up teaching AP Bio in Toledo, OH. Hilarious, terrifying, and surprisingly fresh!

I was blown away by my partner’s gifts this year. Among the faves were a VR headset, an iPad, and the #DanDaDan manga. I only JUST now realized he’s been playing #Fortnite for 3 hours straight.
I’ve been tricked. He got me all these things so he could play the game unbothered! Clever!

My 2024 #NewYearsResolution was to appreciate the small things in life. I did that, and it improved my connection to the world around me. I’ve never been more grateful.
I think in 2025 I’m going to eliminate “should” statements from my vocabulary. I will do the best I can, and that will be enough.
