Solo Journeys
This study investigates the role of transnational sexualities—referring to how sexual identities and relationships are influenced by cross‐border movements and contexts—in shaping LGBTQ+ single living arrangements.

Key factors include the impact of legal and socio‐cultura…
The Politics of Alignment and the 'Quiet Transgender Revolution' in Fortune 500 Corporations, 2008 to 2017
This study shows that when social movements achieve a general acceptance for the legitimacy of their cause in the institutional environment, they may start pursuing further demands by challenging their target entities through the 'politics of alignment,' meaning engaging these entities in professionally developed programs and demanding specific outcomes by introducing timed interventions in them. This study exemplifies this politics using the cas…

Acceptance takes time, and transitioning to acceptance is often a complex process that depends on parents' access to the necessary resources for …

Using B ernstein's model of identity deployment, it is found problematic t…
