Service usage of a cohort of formerly homeless women in Aotearoa New Zealand
The cohort were primarily female, younger, Māori, and parents. They earned much less than their non-homeless counterparts, and relied heavily on government support. The neoliberalisation of the welfare state, high rates of women's poverty, and the gendered nature of parenthood means that women's homelessness is distinct from men's homelessness
What explains the decline in adolescent binge-drinking in New Zealand
LGBTIQ+ Homelessness
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, and Queer (LGBTIQ+) people’s experiences of homelessness is an under-explored area of housing and homelessness studies, despite this group making up 20–40% of homeless populations. Despite this, much of the existing literature focuses on specific elements of LGBTIQ+ homelessness, and often does not consider the intersections of these elements, instead placing them into individual siloes. Our approach…
Service usage by a New Zealand Housing First cohort prior to being housed
These preliminary findings show the homeless population have important service delivery needs and a very high level of interaction with government services. This highlights the importance of analysing the contributing factors towards homelessness; for evaluation of interventions such as Housing First, and for understanding the need for integrated systems of government policy and practice to prevent homelessness. This paper also provides the basel…
After the social model
The education of those living with impairments has been reshaped by the social model of disability in Western societies. Disabled New Zealanders are now educated with their able-bodied peers in a ‘socially inclusive’ school system. Sexuality Education [SE] that addresses the needs of these students has been mandated by government guidelines since the early 2000s, however, schools have failed to provide SE inclusive of diverse bodies and experienc…
From Controlling Emotion to Expressing Feelings in Mid-Twentieth-Century England
This article examines British emotional culture through the lens provided by records of group-analytic therapy sessions held in the 1940s and 1960s. Sigmund Heinrich Foulkes, a Jewish psychoanalyst trained in Germany, developed group-analytic therapy, with the aim of contributing to the creation of a democratic society in which people would operate without reliance on authority. The sessions reveal how the existing culture of rigid emotional cont…
Angela Carter's 'The Sadeian Woman' and Female Desire in England 1960-1975
In The Sadeian Woman (1979) Angela Carter suggested that the visions of free female sexuality created by the Marquis de Sade in his violent pornographic novels provided insight into existing female sexualities in her own—British—society. In this article the representation of female sexuality in novels set in contemporary British society, written by women, and published between 1960 and 1975, is examined in relation to Carter's exegesis of the goo…
Getting ‘foolishly hot and bothered’? Parents and teachers and sex education in the 1940s
The reluctance of parents to provide sex education has been a problem for educators since the first attempts at the modernisation of sex education in the early twentieth century, yet the sexual needs, desires and fears of parents are rarely even mentioned in pedagogical debates. This article examines the intense anxiety and embarrassment felt by both parents and teachers when they tried to provide sex education in mid-twentieth-century England. T…

Emotion, Bodies, Sexuality, and Sex Education in Edwardian England
The history of emotion has focused on cognition and social construction, largely disregarding the centrality of the body to emotional experience. This case-study reveals that a focus on corporeal experience and emotion enables a deeper understanding of cultural mores and of transmission to the next generation, which is fundamental to the process of change. In 1914, parents in Dronfield, Derbyshire, attempted to get the headmistress of their schoo…
The Secret Battle
Queer London
Sexuality and Contraception in Modern England
Historians of sexuality have almost completely ignored reproduction as a factor relevant to, and potentially influencing, sexual mores or sexual change. This article argues that the economic burden created by reproduction provided the major motivation for individual control of sexuality and for societal attempts to control the sexual activity of individuals in societies shaped by the NorthWest European marriage system. England is used as an examp…
Prostitution, Women and Misuse of the Law
Helen J. Self, London: Frank Cass, 2003. Pp.318. £18.99 (Pbk). ISBN 071468371X. This book fills a major gap in the historiography of women and sexuality in the twentieth century. The opening chapters contain a useful summary of the development of British law aimed at regulating prostitution from the 1830s through to the 1950s, and laws, largely initiated by feminist groups, which aimed to protect women and children. These latter include measures …
The English Sexual Revolution
Did a sexual revolution take place in the 1960s and, if so, what if anything did the Pill have to do with it? Feminists and historians of women, of sexuality, and of the pill have rejected the idea that the pill was a causal factor in what has been called the ‘permissive moment’. This article argues that the existing historiography has over-emphasized the importance of structural forces, and overlooked the impact of new technology as well as unde…
