Transmaxxing , Identity, and Online Male Subcultures
This paper examines transmaxxing, an emergent discourse within online male subcultures in which some men frame gender transition as a strategic response to perceived masculine failure and social marginalisation. Rather than being primarily associated with gender dysphoria, transmaxxing is positioned as a route to social recognition, sexual access, and personal fulfilment, shaped by perceived misandry and disillusionment with men’s contemporary so…
Older adults’ experiences of wellbeing through engagement with a nature-based programme
Nature-based interventions and programmes hold real potential to effectively support older adults’ immediate and longer-term physical, social, mental, emotional, and psychological wellbeing needs. • Carefully designed, theory informed nature-based interventions and programmes may offer real potential to effectively support older adults’ immediate and longer-term wellbeing needs. • These may offer creative and complementary support amid an ever-in…
Lived Experiences of New‐Onset Long Covid Pain and Its Impact on Health‐Related Quality of Life. A Scoping Review of Current Evidence
Men and the mask
Scotland's North Sea offshore oil-drilling-fields have long been stereotyped as sites reinforcing and reproducing unique forms of masculinities aligning with hegemonic masculinity (HM) descriptors: stoicism, competition, and conflict. Oilfields encompass near-all-male workplaces, requiring labour in difficult conditions, distancing from friends, family, and home life. Emerging research in oilfields has begun to resist the HM-stereotype in favour …
The Beau Idéal Has Been Disconnected
Within immediate modernity, increases in the multitude of psychological, social, emotional and behavioural disruptions affecting human actors, categorised under the (reductive) label of 'anxiety' are reaching an apex. This peak can be conceptualised both by frequency of disruptions, which may be defined as ever-present, and by the volume of negative effects over humans' ability to exist in present reality. Some scholars have argued the permanence…

Unforeseen emotional labour
Emotional labour or emotion management describes regulation of feelings to fulfil specific job roles, discussed extensively around commercial and caring professions and more recently qualitative researchers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this was heightened due to changes in the socio-political context affecting individual circumstances and research practice, yet accounts pertaining to qualitative researchers are lacking. This paper presents a co…
Disrupted Candidacy
INTRODUCTION: Evidence examines how persons experiencing Long COVID (LC) struggle to secure healthcare for symptoms. However, few studies examine healthcare workers experiencing LC, nor the complex and multiple difficulties faced when seeking and receiving healthcare. METHODS: This study is based on two phases of longitudinally conducted qualitative interviews, 6 months apart, with National Health Service (NHS) workers experiencing LC, from diffe…
DeusEx Saved My Life
Autoethnographic accounts of mental illness (MI) are sparse in academic scholarship, despite generating valuable insights into how MI can be experienced and coped with in real-life contexts. First-person accounts from men are especially lacking, possibly linked to historic trend for masculine stoicism stifling male MI discussions. Some scholarships explore video-gaming as a positive, escapist aid benefiting individuals experiencing major depressi…
Knowledge gaps in existing research exploring sexual fluidity and mental health among young adults
While there is a large body of evidence indicating that sexual minority youth experience inequitably high rates of mental health problems (eg, depression, suicidality), we know little about how temporal changes in sexual attractions, identities and behaviour may impact mental health (and other) outcomes. In this essay, we review existing research regarding sexual fluidity and mental health among young adults in order to identify critical knowledg…
Studying 'closed' workplaces
Energy-ethnographies of 'closed' workplaces detail practices for achieving robust, authentic research. However, few publications highlight -experientially- benefits of developing connections; learning specifics of environments, peoples and customs prior to beginning ethnography proper. Developing knowledge is (a) necessary for organisational locales, to achieve accurate, thorough and representative accounts of peoples, places, and cultures; and (…
Lever House (New York)
Defensive pessimism-like thinking in practice
UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) offshore oilfield drilling is recognised as a high-hazard occupation that occurs in one of the riskiest locations in the world. Dangerous machinery, combustible hydrocarbons, unpredictable weather conditions, rapidly shifting situational factors, rotating crews, and lengthy travel over rough seas by helicopter are just some salient risk-factors. At present, little scholarly research explores how regular offshore worker…
A Triad of Physical Masculinities
The last twenty years has seen increases in nonprofessional sportspersons using anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS). Although some women use AAS, most users are men. Few studies examine men, masculinities and AAS. Of the limited studies available, many link a 'hegemonic masculinity' with men's AAS use; adopting a singular identity perspective and generalizing 'steroid use'. However, bodybuilding is diverse, often encompassing different goals surro…
Salami Slicing
The term Salami Slicing is used often within academia to refer to the needless separation of a single research study, attached dataset, and argument that should form a single publication, into two or several separate publications for submission in different journals. While the term is used with frequency, there exist few explicit guidelines that concretely explain firstly: what tangibly constitutes the unethical and damaging practice of Salami Sl…

Four Distinct Cultures of Oilfield Masculinity, but Absent Hegemonic Masculinity
This study explores the multiple and distinct cultures of oilfield masculinity uncovered during an embedded ethnographic study of masculinities onboard a remote UK offshore drilling platform. Oilmen revealed shifting interpretations for how risky and dangerous oil work “should be done.” Changes led to the construction of three distinct masculine cultures intertwined with positive safety behaviors and one culture intertwined with negative risky be…
Scraping’ Reddit posts for academic research? Addressing some blurred lines of consent in growing internet-based research trend during the time of Covid-19
The global scale of Covid-19 has constrained academics from conducting much person-facing research. Reactively, trend is increasing for digital-based methodologies capturing already existing online data. Scholars often ‘scrape’ user-postings from internet forums using coding algorithms and text capture tools, before analysing data, drawing conclusions and publishing findings. The online social news aggregation and discussion website Reddit is a p…
