Gold Executive Officer THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK iii ABSTRACT Queering by Example: Sex Education in the Age of Vlogging by Zoë Simpson Advisor: Patricia Ticineto Clough The 1990s saw the rise of third wave feminism, queer theory and the digital age. This paper looks at how the three come together in YouTube video bloggers’ promotion of queer sex-positive ideology. Sex positivism is the belief that all safe, consensual sex is healthy, while queer theory emphasizes the diversity and instability of sex and gender identities. -
GERONIMO No Rice Shortage in the Country Despite the Low Inventory of the National Food Sarah Geronimo Breaks Down Authority (NFA)
2018 JUNE Less farms, less rice Shrinking agricultural lands have been taken over by commercial interests MANILA - The Philippines is unlikely to become self-sufficient in rice amid concerns the rice farming lands have been shrinking, President Duterte said. This is contrary to what Agriculture BURNOUT or DEPRESSION? officials had earlier claimed that the country could be rice self-sufficient by 2020. The country is reportedly 96 percent rice sufficient so far. Despite this, the public was asked not to panic over the country’s rice situation as the overall supply remains “more than sufficient.” SARAH Senior Deputy Executive Secretary Menardo Guevarra assured that there was GERONIMO no rice shortage in the country despite the low inventory of the National Food Sarah Geronimo breaks down Authority (NFA). “There’s no rice shortage.

Transgender Young People's Narratives of Intimacy and Sexual
Transgender young people’s narratives of intimacy and sexual health: Implications for sexuality education Damien W. Riggsa and Clare Bartholomaeusa aCollege of Education, Psychology and Social Work, Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia Postal address: College of Education, Psychology and Social Work, Flinders University, GPO Box 2100, Adelaide, SA 5001 [email protected] Abstract Sexuality education as pedagogy is often fraught by the perceived need to balance the informational needs of young people with an investment in notions of childhood innocence. Nowhere is this perhaps more evident than in sexuality education that seeks to be inclusive of transgender young people, often resulting in the failure of such education to address the needs of such students. In an attempt at addressing the relative dearth of information about what transgender young people would like to see covered in sexuality education, in this article we explore transgender young people’s accounts of intimacy and sexual health and consider what this means for school-based sexuality education. To do this we analyse discussions of intimacy from the perspectives of transgender young people as narrated in a sample of YouTube videos. We conclude by advocating for an approach to sexuality education that largely eschews the gendering of body parts and gametes, and which instead focuses on function, so as to not only address the needs of transgender young people (who may find normative discussions of genitals distressing), but to also provide cisgender young people with a more inclusive understanding of their own and other people’s bodies and desires. Keywords: transgender; sexuality education; school; social media; gender; bodies This is an Author Accepted Version of a manuscript published in Sex Education. -
Supporting Transgender Young People: Guidance for Schools in Scotland 3
SUPPORTING TRANSGENDER YOUNG PEOPLE GUIDANCE FOR SCHOOLS IN SCOTLAND SUPPORTING TRANSGENDER YOUNG PEOPLE GUIDANCE FOR SCHOOLS IN SCOTLAND Supporting Transgender Young People: guidance for schools in Scotland 3 LGBT Youth Scotland is the largest youth and community-based organisation for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people in Scotland. Our vision is that Scotland is the best place to grow up for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex young people. Our mission is to play a leading role in the provision of quality youth work to LGBTI young people that promotes their health and wellbeing, and to be a valued and influential partner in LGBTI equality and human rights. Scottish Trans Alliance assists transgender people, service providers, employers and equality organisations to engage together to improve gender identity and gender reassignment equality, rights and inclusion in Scotland. We strive for everyone in Scotland to be safe and valued whatever their gender identity and gender reassignment status, and to have full freedom in their gender expression. Message from Fergus McMillan I have been struck personally by the extent to which transgender young people have to be their own advocates growing up and coming out as trans at school. Transgender young people have the right to an education free from discrimination and prejudice and should not have to defend their identity or who they truly are. That's why we've developed this guidance: we want to assist in creating a positive school ethos, where all young people, including trans young people, can benefit from respectful relationships and achieve their full potential. -

The New Manila Sound: Music and Mass Culture, 1990S and Beyond James Gabrillo
The New Manila Sound: Music and Mass Culture, 1990s and Beyond A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music James Gabrillo Peterhouse, University of Cambridge November 2018 This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other quali- fication at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. It does not exceed the word limit prescribed by the Degree Committee. "2 of 293" The New Manila Sound: Music and Mass Culture, 1990s and Beyond James Gabrillo Abstract This dissertation provides the first detailed account of the mass musical culture of the Philippines that originated in the 1990s and continues to be the most popular style of musical entertainment in the country — a scene I dub the New Manila Sound. Through a combination of archival research, musical analysis, and ethnographic fieldwork, my ex- amination focuses on its two major pioneers: the musical television programme Eat Bula- ga! (Lunchtime Surprise) and the pop-rock band Aegis. I document the scene’s rise and development as it attracted mostly consumers from the lower classes and influenced oth- er programmes and musicians to adapt its content and aesthetics. The scene’s trademark kitsch qualities of parody, humour, and exaggeration served as forms of diversion to au- diences recovering from the turbulent dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos from 1965 to 1986, when musical works primarily comprised of state-commissioned nationalist an- thems, Western art music, and protest songs. -
