  • Gender and Consent in Supernatural Fanfiction's Alpha/Beta/Omega
    i Just Go Find Yourself a Nice Alpha: Gender and Consent in Supernatural Fanfiction’s Alpha/Beta/Omega Universe by Tessa Barone A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in English (Honors Scholar) Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in History (Honors Scholar) Presented May 28, 2019 Commencement June 2019 ii iii AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Tessa Barone for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in English and Honors Baccalaureate Arts in History presented on May 28, 2019. Title: Just Go Find Yourself a Nice Alpha: Gender and Consent in Supernatural Fanfiction’s Alpha/Beta/Omega Universe. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Rebecca Olson Shows, books, and media are constantly negotiating power with their fans. Who decides what is canon? To whom does the story belong?? The answer has traditionally been in favor of producers. However, in the age of the internet, fans now hold considerably more power than they ever have before, and some shows, like the CW’s Supernatural, respond by participating in “fanservice.” Many fans of this show strongly support slash and incest pairings, and by allowing such interpretations to be acknowledged in the narrative Supernatural makes increasingly transgressive readings available to the audience. The trope known as “Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics” is extremely popular, borderline pornographic, and virtually eradicates women from the narrative—instead depicting a relationship between men that is highly heterosexual in dynamic. This trope deconstructs the gender binary by assigning gender roles based on behavior, rather than biology, and appeals to an animal code of ethics in order to indulge in problematic, sexist, and abusive sexual situations.

  • What Does Gender Mean in Regendered Characters
    What Does Gender Mean in Regendered Characters Author Baker, Lucy Published 2017-12-31 Thesis Type Thesis (PhD Doctorate) School School of Hum, Lang & Soc Sc DOI https://doi.org/10.25904/1912/2211 Copyright Statement The author owns the copyright in this thesis, unless stated otherwise. Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/380299 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au WHAT DOES GENDER MEAN IN REGENDERED CHARACTERS Ms Lucy Irene Baker, BA (Hons), MAppSci(Lib&InfoMgmt) School of Humanities, Languages, and Social Science Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 31 December 2017 21 Abstract This thesis examines the ways regendering, or ‘genderswapping’, is performed as an adaptational creative choice for fans and creators. Regendered works, such as the TV series Elementary, illustrate the complexity of representation, and the ongoing imbalanced landscape of media. I develop a more cohesive understanding of the fannish counterpublic and its complex approaches to creativity and gender by grounding the research and data collection in fan studies, gender studies, and literary theory. This thesis uses interviews, surveys, and observations of fannish communities, and close readings of regendered texts and media, to develop two theories of regendered effects. One: the position of regendered work within fannish counterpublics is one centred on the conflicts and tensions between lived experiences and the media landscape, performed through the creative forms that characterise their communities. Fannish experiences of gender and sexuality influence their reception of those works, and how they practice regendering as a creative process. Two: these works then reinforce that counterpublic by correcting the gender imbalance of the initial work, and re-othering the expectations of that work.

  • Taylor Boulware a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of The
    Fascination/Frustration: Slash Fandom, Genre, and Queer Uptake Taylor Boulware A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Thomas Foster, Chair Anis Bawarshi Katherine Cummings Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of English Fascination/Frustration: Slash Fandom, Genre, and Queer Uptake by Taylor Boulware The University of Washington, 2017 Under the Supervision of Professor Dr. Thomas Foster ABSTRACT This dissertation examines contemporary television slash fandom, in which fans write and circulate creative texts that dramatize non-canonical queer relationships between canonically heterosexual male characters. These texts contribute to the creation of global networks of affective and social relations, critique the specific corporate media texts from which they emerge, and undermine homophobic ideologies that prevent authentic queer representation in mainstream media. Intervening in dominant scholarly and popular arguments about slash fans, I maintain a rigorous distinction between the act of reading homoerotic subtexts in TV shows and writing fiction that makes that homoeroticism explicit, in every sense of the word.This emphasis on writing and the circulation of responsive, recursive texts can best be understood, I argue, through the framework of Rhetorical Genre Studies, which theorizes genres and the ways in which they are deployed, modified, and circulated as ideological and social action. I nuance the RGS concept of uptake, which names the generic dimensions of utterance and response, and define my concept of queer uptake, in which writers respond to a text in ways that refuse its generic boundaries and status, motivated by an ideological resistance to both genre and sexual normativity.

  • List of Paraphilias
    List of paraphilias Paraphilias are sexual interests in objects, situations, or individuals that are atypical. The American Psychiatric Association, in its Paraphilia Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, Fifth Edition (DSM), draws a Specialty Psychiatry distinction between paraphilias (which it describes as atypical sexual interests) and paraphilic disorders (which additionally require the experience of distress or impairment in functioning).[1][2] Some paraphilias have more than one term to describe them, and some terms overlap with others. Paraphilias without DSM codes listed come under DSM 302.9, "Paraphilia NOS (Not Otherwise Specified)". In his 2008 book on sexual pathologies, Anil Aggrawal compiled a list of 547 terms describing paraphilic sexual interests. He cautioned, however, that "not all these paraphilias have necessarily been seen in clinical setups. This may not be because they do not exist, but because they are so innocuous they are never brought to the notice of clinicians or dismissed by them. Like allergies, sexual arousal may occur from anything under the sun, including the sun."[3] Most of the following names for paraphilias, constructed in the nineteenth and especially twentieth centuries from Greek and Latin roots (see List of medical roots, suffixes and prefixes), are used in medical contexts only. Contents A · B · C · D · E · F · G · H · I · J · K · L · M · N · O · P · Q · R · S · T · U · V · W · X · Y · Z Paraphilias A Paraphilia Focus of erotic interest Abasiophilia People with impaired mobility[4] Acrotomophilia

  • Child Pornography, Pedophilia, and Contact Offending: the Empirical Research
    In the Thames Magistrates Court Case No: 011700940001 --------------------------------------------------- COMMISSIONER OF POLICE FOR THE METROPOLIS (Applicant) and LEO GARETH ADAMSON (Respondent) ---------------------------------------------------- Child pornography, pedophilia, and contact offending: the empirical research. Expert report by Dr. William Thompson PhD. Introduction I have been asked to give an opinion regarding the scientific basis, for or against, the prohibition of private possession of 'virtual child pornography' such as drawings, as opposed to photographs of children. In particular, I was asked to address two issues: (a) is there any evidence of a correlation, positive or negative, between the levels of availability of pornography and rates of contact offending; (b) is there any evidence, for or against, the use of pornography to facilitate contact offending. Given the original question, I have concentrated on the evidence concerning child pornography, and I have included other forms of evidence concerning the behavior of child pornography offenders (CPOs) that are relevant to the question. I am capable and qualified to offer an opinion having undertaken similar commissions in the past. Between 1990 and 2006, while resident in the UK, I was a practicing associate of the British Academy of Experts, and a forensic criminologist. My main areas of expertise were: child sexual assault allegations and investigative methods; the history of pornography, pornography effects studies, and related paraphilia––homosexuality, pedophilia, and sadomasochism. I supervised postgraduate research and taught courses on these subjects to undergraduates at Reading University. I was a guest lecturer on the post qualifying courses for social workers at Portsmouth University; and was frequently engaged as a lecture and/or seminar leader on these subjects at conferences for police and probation officers.
