Back from another fab Fieldstudies in Ireland field trip with the 2nd year @ucddublin.bsky.social Geography students!

Over 3 days, we explored the physical & human landscapes of the border region focusing on the theme of peripherality to think about the emergence of ‘left behind’ places #geosky

And a special shout-out to everyone who joined us at our Asexual Geographies session yesterday! Thank you all for so thoughtfully & generously contributing to the space that we are working to create for asexualities & nonsexualities in geography and beyond. Incredibly grateful to be a part of it 💜

I had such a wonderful time this week at #RGSIBG25 at the @unibirmingham.bsky.social with friends & colleagues old and new. Loved exploring the city, and feeling energized by all the brilliant, creative, challenging, and inspiring discussions over the last few days.

I’ll be joining a fabulous panel of presenters to share some of my PhD data surrounding the spatialities of outness & disclosure - exploring participants' ambivalent & conflicted feelings navigating the liminalities ace (in)visibility. Full session/panel details in the conference programme!

I can hardly believe the @rgsibg.bsky.social annual conference is already upon us! I’m so excited to be heading off to Birmingham today, and even more excited to be convening the inaugural Asexual Geographies session at the RGS with @joejukes.bsky.social on Thursday!! 💜 🌍 🌈 ✨

I’ll be presenting some findings from my PhD research, drawing from ace participants’ experiences to explore how landscapes of compulsory sexuality can be (re)created in queer spaces
