Researching English-Medium Higher Education
The rise of English in multilingual universities emerges among a wide range of topics for the socio- and applied linguist to study and explore. Yet foregrounding English in universities, especially when considering the ongoing debate surrounding translingualism, calls for innovative and flexible frameworks. Two such frameworks are developed in the two books here reviewed. ‘Researching English-Medium Higher Education: Diverse Applications and Crit…
Echoes of linguistic internationalism
This article interrogates echoes of linguistic internationalism in Swedish university life, where internationalisation is a political priority. It historicises internationalism and internationalisation as a backdrop for examining the experiences of academics in an internationalising university context. Empirically, the article draws on the interview accounts of six scholars, offering insights into how communicative repertoires are responded to, a…
Stability and Change in Sexual Orientation and Genital Arousal over Time
Longitudinal work suggests that sexual orientation can change over time in men and women. These studies, however, may be susceptible to the bias of self-report. The current study therefore examined self-reported sexual orientation in addition to an objective correlate: genital arousal to erotic videos showing males or females. For 52 men (19 heterosexual, 19 bisexual, 14 homosexual) and 67 women (31 heterosexual, 18 bisexual, 18 homosexual), thes…
Sex Differences in Sexual Arousal and Finger Length Ratio
Most men show sexual arousal to one, preferred sex, whereas most women respond to both sexes, regardless of their sexual orientation. A different research program indicates that men have lower second-to-fourth finger length ratios (2D:4D) than women, possibly because men are exposed to higher levels of androgens during prenatal development. We hypothesized that sex differences in sexual arousal patterns are influenced by prenatal androgen exposur…
Sexual Orientation, Sexual Arousal, and Finger Length Ratios in Women
In general, women show physiological sexual arousal to both sexes. However, compared with heterosexual women, homosexual women are more aroused to their preferred sex, a pattern typically found in men. We hypothesized that homosexual women’s male-typical arousal is due to their sex-atypical masculinization during prenatal development. We measured the sexual responses of 199 women (including 67 homosexual women) via their genital arousal and pupil…
Gender Nonconformity of Identical Twins with Discordant Sexual Orientations
Gender Nonconformity of Bisexual Men and Women
Gender nonconformity of identical twins with discordant sexual orientations
Childhood gender nonconformity (femininity in males, masculinity in females) predicts a nonstraight (gay, lesbian, or bisexual) sexual orientation in adulthood. In previous work, nonstraight twins reported more childhood gender nonconformity than their genetically identical, but straight, cotwins. However, self-reports could be biased. We therefore assessed gender nonconformity via ratings of photographs from childhood and adulthood. These rating…
