Queering communication studies
Genders and sexualities continue to remain underexplored in the field of communication studies and the academy in general. This essay examines possibilities for incorporating queer perspectives into communication studies. At the invitation of the Journal of Applied Communication Research editor, 9 communication scholars who use queer theory or queer perspectives in their own work responded to a series of questions addressing how queer theory and …
Becoming Unburdened
In this essay, I use embodied, autoethnography to transform my fiscal self and disentangle my queer body from my heteronormative body. I position autoethnography and auto/archeology as a privileged orientation/method that must be viewed, practiced, and critiqued as such, even for those of us with some circumscription of marginal identities. I write my 'radically specific' narrative not only to improve my own relationship, but also to contribute t…
Heteronormative bodies, queer futures
This essay examines the policing of sexual bodies via interactive online technologies. We draw from scholarly discourses regarding surveillance, queer theory, and affect to construct what we call interpersonal panopticism. Interpersonal panopticism serves as a theoretical account of the fluid nature of watching and being watched in relationships, especially in consideration of how intimate relationships and sexualities are surveilled and controll…

He Won't Hurt Us Anymore”
This autoethnographic essay is my attempt to work through a history of violence my mother's ex-husband enacted on us. At the intersection of trauma, memory, and performance, I have uncovered the violent moments that haunted my adolescence and early adulthood and led to feelings of helplessness, fear, and anger. Feminist storytelling helps untangle my victim identity from the powerful moments of my survivorship. I hope that the stories I share of …
My So-Called Felicity and the City
You Had Me at Foucault
This essay examines the role of technology and social media in the performance of decentered heteronormative bodily and pedagogical power. Today's teaching spaces occupy traditional, physical outlets but also imaginary, online gathering places such as blogs, Twitter, and Facebook that have become extensions of our pedagogical bodies. I argue that feminism and queer theory—united by Foucault's upheaval of norms—provide critical sites to engage thi…
The Modern(?) Korean Woman in Prime-Time
This article investigates the representation of Sun, the most prominent non-white female character on ABC's Lost. Given the importance of Sun's character in terms of visibility for Korean women specifically (and Asian women generally) coupled with the fact that Lost under-represents women in general, her role provides a substantial case-study of gender within the science fiction genre. Through a narrative analysis of the first season, we demonstr…
