2. I Do Not Miss What I Do Not Want: Asexual Identities, Asexual Lives (Special theme issue of Psychology and Sexuality) Editors: Mark Carrigan - m.a.carrigan@warwick.ac.uk
Kristina Gupta - kgupta2@emory.edu
Todd G. Morrison - tgm003@mail.usask.ca Theme: Within the past decade, a growing number of individuals, self-identifying as asexual, have come together to form asexual communities. Although self-definitions vary widely, many of these individuals describe themselves as experiencing little or no sexual desire. In addition, they do not regard asexuality as a pathological condition but, rather, as a variant of human sexual expression. For researchers in the field of psychology and related disciplines, the elaboration of asexual identities and the growth of online asexual communities raise a range of empirical and theoretical questions which have heretofore gone largely unaddressed. This special issue of Psychology & Sexuality invites papers which contribute to the academic and social understanding of asexuality.
Suggested Topics: - Asexual identities
Guidelines: Submission Due Date: Feb 2011
Full length papers (6000 words) and shorter articles (1000-2000 words) CFP Address: http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/journal.asp?issn=1941-9899&linktype=1 Contact: Mark Carrigan - m.a.carrigan@warwick.ac.uk
