Interrogating religion, inequality and power dynamics
Utilizing lived religion and embodied intersectionality, this article theoretically explores ways of capturing the nuance and complexity in religion, gender and sexuality research to understand embedded forms of inequality. Dominant conceptualizations understand sexuality and gender to be in tension with ‘religion’. Yet this assumes these terms are fixed, rather than fluid and unstable. Research into the lived realities of religious-identifying q…
Intersecting Religion and Sexuality

Foundations and Futures in the Sociology of Religion
In recent years, concepts such as lived and everyday religion have re-energised how religion is measured, analysed and understood. But although such terminology is readily deployed in contemporary research, there are areas where it has not been so prevalent. This chapter charts what concepts such as lived and everyday religion have offered the sociology of religion, moving on to consider their future potentiality, exploring what a lived religion …
Introduction
Anglican Clergy Husbands Securing Middle-Class Gendered Privilege through Religion
Traditionally, clergy wives have been obliged to assist the Church in an unpaid capacity; such work has been feminised, associated with the assumed competencies of women ( Denton 1962 ; Finch 1980 , 1983 ; Murphy-Geiss 2011 ). Clergy husbands are a relatively recent phenomenon in the Church of England, emerging when women started to be ordained as deacons in 1987 and priests in 1994. Based on interviews with men whose wives were ordained as pries…
Gender equality and religion
This article presents findings from research on young adults in the UK from diverse religious backgrounds. Utilizing questionnaires, interviews and video diaries, it assesses how religious young adults understood and managed the tensions in popular discourse between gender equality as an enshrined value and aspirational narrative, and religion as purportedly instituting gender inequality. The article shows that, despite varied understandings, and…

Religious young adults recounting the past
Schooling can be a pivotal time in young people’s formative experience when identities are negotiated and forged. However, contradictory dominant cultures can operate within the school context, making it very challenging for individuals to negotiate their religious and sexual identities within a sexualised and heteronormative space. This essay draws on interview data relating to 18- to 25-year-olds of diverse religious faiths in the UK, who recou…
Femmes, mères et prêtres dans l'Église d'Angleterre. Quels sacerdoces
Cet article montre comment l’Église d’Angleterre a intégré professionnellement les femmes prêtres et il met en lumière la façon dont ces femmes négocient leur présence dans un contexte de discrimination. Bien que l’opposition générale à la présence des femmes dans la prêtrise ait diminué, des poches d’opposition demeurent. De surcroît, la façon dont les femmes négocient leur présence dans l’organisation dépend étroitement de leur position hiérarc…
Negotiating Sacred Roles
In 1992, in a historic move, the Church of England voted to allow women's ordination to priesthood and in 1994 the first women priests started to be ordained. Despite much research interest, the experiences of priests who are mothers to dependent children have been minimally investigated. Based on in-depth interviews with seventeen mothers ordained in the Church, this paper will focus on how the sacred-profane boundary is managed. Priests who are…
The Construction of Masculinities and Femininities in the Church of England
The ordination of women to the priesthood in the Church of England in 1994 signified great change. The impact of the new priests was well documented, and their integration became the focus of much research in the following years. One important area of change was the altered dynamics of gender identity. New roles had opened up for women, but new identities had also emerged for men. While women priests were a new historical emergence, so too were c…
