Shifting Religious Influences on Attitudes Towards Same-Sex Behavior and Civil Liberties: A Multilevel Across-Time Analysis
Americans' acceptance of same-sex sexual relations and their willingness to restrict the civil liberties of sexual minorities vary substantially across both time and place even as overall trends have been towards more liberalizing stances. Yet few quantitative studies have explored both the individual and contextual religious factors shaping Americans' views and none have applied such an analysis to examining attitudes over time. Using hierarchic…
"The fighting had ceased but… democracy had not won": Helen Noble Curtis and the Rise of a Black International Feminism in World War I France
Helen Noble Curtis was a prominent race woman, peace advocate, Pan-African spokesperson, and the first African American woman to serve in France during the First World War. Although scholars have focused on the totality of the war moment for African American male soldiers, less attention has been given to the African American women who served as Young Men's Christian Association canteen workers in France. The fact that they were African American …
Heterosexism and Homophobia
Heterosexism and homophobia are terms commonly used to refer to the prejudice and discrimination exhibited by a society toward nonheterosexuals.

There are many intersex conditions. Depending on how it is defined, it is estimated that between 1 and 2 percent of people could be classified as intersex at birth. Intersex people may occupy a range of gender and sexual identities. Intersexua…
Decomposing the Moral Community: Religious Contexts and Teen Childbearing
Teen birth rates vary widely across counties in the United States. in this study, we examine whether the religious composition of a county is correlated with the rate of teen childbearing using both a traditional moral communities approach and a “decomposed” version of that framework. Utilizing 2000 data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the United States Census Bureau, and the Religious Congregation and Membership Survey, we f…
Intersexuality
Intersex refers to a variety of inborn conditions whereby an individual's sexual or reproductive anatomy varies from social expectations about “normal” male or female anatomy. Because the standards are arbitrary, “intersex” is not a discrete category – what counts as intersex depends upon who's counting. That said, about 1/2,000 babies is born with obvious enough differences to come to medical attention. This biological variation creates direct c…
