Young women’s understanding and experience of sexual consent in Slovakia: An interpretative phenomenological analysis
This study explores the complexities of how young women construct and experience sexual consent, within the framework of sexual scripting in Slovakia, where traditional Catholic values, postfeminist ideals, and right-wing anti-gender rhetoric in a post-socialist context continue to hinder the provision of comprehensive sex education. Seven heterosexual women aged 20-25 participated in semi-structured interviews analysed using interpretative pheno…
Sexual subjectivity discourses of middle-aged women in Slovakia: From reproduction to intimacy
Based on the premise of a changing world and evolving discourses, this study examines the persistence of traditional discourses and sexual scripts in tension and interaction with modern meanings, whether liberating or coercive. Situated in Slovakia—a small Central and Eastern European country marked by a strong Catholic tradition and a post-socialist legacy—the study focuses on how these layered discourses shape the understanding and experience o…
Discourses of Gender Equality in Academic Institutions in Selected Central and Eastern European Countries
Drawing on Foucault's concept of discursive power, Acker's theory of inequality regimes, and feminist approaches to organizational change, this article explores how gender (in)equalities are discursively constructed and sustained within academia, what opportunities for change these discourses enable, and their implications for individual subjectivity. The analysis is based on qualitative reports derived from interviews and focus groups conducted …
Stigmatization of Childfree Choice in Response to Climate Change

The aim was to explore how women navigate societal reactions and pressures related to the normative ideal of motherhood when deciding not to have children, including for environmental reasons. Seven women partici…
From perceived proximity of climate change to well-being: How climate threat appraisal and emotions interrelate in a Slovak representative sample
Beyond Yes and No: Discursive Constructions of Grey Area and Sexual Boundaries in Women’s Lives in Slovakia
The question of where to draw the boundary between what counts as sexual violence and what does not has received growing attention in academic and public discourse. The normalization of sexual violence, combined with dominant gender norms and the power dynamics of sexual negotiation, reveal significant gaps in existing research. This study explores how adult women in Slovakia construct and negotiate sexual boundaries and how they navigate grey-ar…
