We cannot ensure that our institu- tions reflect the ideals of equality, fairness, and equal opportunity which are part of our culture without affirmative action.'

  • Food Diet for Transgender Before Hormone Replacement Therapy
    ====================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 19:1 January 2019 India’s Higher Education Authority UGC Approved List of Journals Serial Number 49042 ===================================================================== Food Diet for Transgender before Hormone Replacement Therapy Dr. K. Sindhu, Asst. Professor and M. Aravindh, Ph.D. Scholar ======================================================================= This paper describes some of the healthcare needs of transgender people before hormone replacement therapy. Gender identity is one of the most important concerns of human psychology. Sexual identity causes big humiliation for transgenders. They need steady help and support from the health care centers. The situation still gets worst when they do not get sufficient support from their own kin, as well as society. “In a survey, 28 percent of participants (transgender people) reported postponing medical care due to discrimination from their health care providers, while 19 percent reported being refused medical care completely” (Breeding Zachari). Lack of knowledge about the gender identity disorder and absence of defined conventions in the society may be the major attributes for this problem. Transgender people are already in a constant inner conflict between soul and body. This conflict with the society leads to hampered communications and miscellaneous relationships within family, friends and colleagues. Transgender people are often rejected by their parents, peers, and marginalised in the society. They are frequently not engaged in necessary mental and physical health care due to barriers arising from both their gender minority status and the barriers associated with homelessness. In order to improve transgender individuals’ health, a rightly dosage of food is must. It is important to understand the conditions for which this population is most at risk, the role of food during the hormone therapy.

However, the South tends to neglect and even to negate certain peoples and their identities. Women, especially lesbians, are often silenced within southern literature. Where Tennessee Williams and James Baldwin used literature to bridge gaps between gay men and the South, southern lesbian literature severely lacks a traceable history of such connections.

  • The 'Synonymy' of Gay and Omosessuale in Italian
    TESOL Working Paper Series The ‘Synonymy’ of Gay and Omosessuale in Italian: A Corpus Linguistic Analysis of Two News Websites Matteo Socciarelli* Hawaii Pacifc University Abstract This study explores the apparent synonymy between omosessuale (homosexual) and gay (gay) in Italian and what attitudes prompt their usage. Two corpora were generated and analyzed, one from a Catholic news website, Tempi, and one from an LGBTQIA+ affliated website, Gay.it. Tempi generally showed a negative attitude towards homosexuality and the institutionalization of Civil Unions in Italy, resulting in a polarized use of the two terms, with gay being used to represent ‘foreign’ and subversive practices that undermine the Church’s heteronormative view of the ‘natural family.’ In contrast, a positive endorsement of LGBTQIA+ lives expressed in Gay.it generated a more nuanced use of omosessuale and gay, with the former being used in more formal discourses. The fndings suggest how teachers of English to speakers of other languages should be aware of the political and cultural practices behind using (apparently) synonymous words. The paper further discusses implications of borrowing foreign terms, a process that is seldom neutral or straightforward. Introduction In Italian, both the borrowed term gay and the native term omosessuale (homosexual) are used as nouns or adjectives to defne a gay individual, man or woman (even though gay is used more generally for men). Through the analysis of two corpora created from the digital archives of two news websites, the present paper aims at establishing whether the terms gay and omosessuale are synonyms in Italian, in which discourses they tend to occur, and whether differences in usage are attributable to different attitudes towards sexual or gender identities.

GAY FAULKNER: UNCOVERING A HOMOSEXUAL PRESENCE IN YOKNAPATAWPHA AND BEYOND A dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English The University of Mississippi by PHILLIP ANDREW GORDON June 2013 Copyright Phillip Andrew Gordon 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation is a biographical study of William Faulkner (1897-1962) as his life coincided with a particular moment in LGBT history when the words homosexual and queer were undergoing profound changes and when our contemporary understanding of gay identity was becoming a widespread and recognizable epistemology. The connections forged in this study--based on archival research from Joseph Blotner’s extensive biographical notes--reveal a version of Faulkner distinctly not anxious about homosexuality and, in fact, often quite comfortable with gay men and living in gay environments (New Orleans, New York). From these connections, I reassess Faulkner’s pre-marriage writings (1918-1929) for their prolific reference to homosexual themes.
