Two new additions to my little library today, both first editions (!), both major twists in criminological discourse, and both with a discursive relevance which only seems to grow (in whatever way we might construe that).

We have been censored in the US for our research on LGBTQ+ sexual violence.
My co-authors and I are extremely concerned about research and activism being censored and the speed with which organisations have acquiesced to transphobic, homophobic and misogynist demands.

Following QLD’s pause on puberty blockers and the federal gov’s new review into healthcare for trans youth, a quick piece from me on why gender-affirming care is already one of the most intensely regulated medical practices in Australia—and why we don’t need yet another review into its legitimacy.
Can a child legally take puberty blockers? What if their parents disagree?
Recent political attention might imply gender-affirming care is risky, controversial, perhaps even new. But Australian law views it as a legitimate medical treatment.

Happy to have this out! New article in @identitiesjournal.bsky.social which examines how work on far right ‘mainstreaming’ can sometimes paradoxically exceptionalise the far right even as it attempts to explain how it has become un-exceptional.
