Affording pleasure: the role of objects in women’s and AFAB individuals’ sexual self-knowledge and pleasure

Troubling genderS and consumer well‐being: Going across, between and beyond the binaries to gender/sex/ual and intersectional diversity

“…Some of these perpetuate homophobic and transphobic tendencies or seem opportunitistic. Articles that come from a place of meaningful engagement and recognition, and that are not editorials or based on speeches, include: Aya Pastrana et al (2022), Brennan (2022), Camminga and Lubinsky (2022), Ciaralli and Vercel (2023), Goulding and Saren (2009), Li (2022), McKeage et al (2018, Peñaloza (1994), andTsai (2010). Although some of these articles included intersex people or trans women, this was done in grouping them with other gender/sex diverse people, with no articles specifically focusing on them.…”

“…There remains a need to clarify what this diversity means and how to study it-correcting for erroneous categorizations that fail to recognize gender/sex/ual diversity beyond a binary view (e.g., Eisend & Rößner, 2022)-so that we can move research forward in an inclusive manner. At the time of our call and leading up to this special issue, only a handful of articles exist that explore consumers going across, between or beyond the binary or that provide a deeper understanding of the ways gender/sex/uality intersect, for example, Aya Pastrana et al (2022), Bettany et al (2022), Camminga and Lubinsky (2022), Cheded and Liu (2022), Ciaralli and Vercel (2023), Eichert and Luedicke (2022), Goulding and Saren (2009), Kates (2003), Li (2022), McKeage et al (2018), Peñaloza (1994), Seregina (2019), Venkatraman et al (2024), andVisconti (2008).…”
