Predictable vowel deletion in content words and variable vowel deletion in function words in Chichicastenango K’iche’
Vowel deletion is frequent in the Chichicastenango dialect of K’iche’ (Maya). Whereas deletion in content words is reportedly predictable based on vowel quality, syllable structure and stress, deletion in function words is much more variable. This article investigates vowel deletion in a corpus of spontaneous, monologic speech. The results show that deletion in content words is highly regular, occurring to lax vowels in unstressed, CV syllables a…
An acoustic study of tense, lax, and glottalized vowels in Chichicastenango K’iche’ (Maya)
This article presents an acoustic analysis of vowel quality and duration in Chichicastenango K’iche’ (Maya) tense, lax and glottalized vowels through a controlled speech production experiment. The results show that most of the five tense–lax pairs can be distinguished through F1 and F2, with the high and mid lax vowels lower than their tense counterparts and the low lax vowel higher than its tense counterpart. Glottalized high and mid vowels have…
Justice and Parental Blameworthiness: Gender and Racial Disparities in the Criminalization of Hot Car Deaths

These cases offer a unique opportunity to compare parents responsible for the accidental death of their children, highlighting the interplay of gender and race in sociolegal responses. By focusing on similar circumstances with differing p…

Consciousness-raising 2.0: Sex Blogging and the Creation of a Feminist Sex Commons
In this article, I develop the notion of a `sex commons' on the internet as one way to help women build more satisfying sex lives. While women have not historically controlled their own sexuality, they have tended to control the dissemination of information about sexuality, first through oral traditions and traditional social networks, and later through media such as advice columns. Medicalization and the culture of expertise removed much of that…
Working in the Fantasy Factory: The Attention Hypothesis and the Enacting of Masculine Power in Strip Clubs
Using ethnographic data, this article argues that interactions between strippers and their customers are vehicles for the conveyance of attention and the enactment of masculine power in addition to being locations of erotic entertainment. Rejecting the anti-sex-work feminist argument that erotic entertainment serves men by objectifying women, this article argues instead that interactions in strip clubs rely on dancers as interactive subjects rath…
