Toward Gender-Inclusive Coreference Resolution (2019, background): “…exists beyond the regressive “female”/“male” binary 5 ; for example, that one’s gender may shift by time or context (often “genderfluid”), or that some people do not experience gender at all (often “agender”) [Darwin 2017; Kessler and McKenna 1978; Richards et al. 2017; Schilt and Westbrook 2009].”
Integrating the Study of Transgender Spectrum and Cisgender Experiences of Self-Categorization from a Personality Perspective (2014, background): “As Tate (2013) recently noted, advancing new, alternative ideas— even if they turn out to be incorrect later—is extremely useful for theorizing in science because the new ideas require the existing positions to become more specific and thus stronger.”
Beards, Breasts, and Bodies (2005, background): “Gender theorists have often examined transsexuality through the lens of gender (Kessler and McKenna 1978; Nicholson 1994; West and Zimmerman 1987); less often have transsexual theorists interrogated gender through the lens of transsexuality.”
The Odd Couple: The Compatibility of Social Construction and Evolutionary Psychology (2000, background): “See, for example, Lutz, (1988); Kessler and McKenna (1977); Oberoi (1994); Shweder, (1985) 3 We use the term "evolutionary psychologist" expansively to include a variety of naturalistic psychological approaches of the sort sketched below.”
Routledge Handbook of Cultural Gerontology (2015, background): “The sense of being a ‘fish out of water’ described above can be understood as a reaction to a disrupted habitual body, which occurs, for example, when balance is affected by a stroke or vision becomes impaired.”
Faking Like a Woman? Towards an Interpretive Theorization of Sexual Pleasure (2007, background): “The recognition of bodily differences between women and men (on which normative heterosexuality depends) is always a social act (Kessler and McKenna, 1978).”
Gender, Language and Discourse (2002, background): “) Kimura's (1992) claim of sex differences in the functional organisation of the brain has some support but is by no means uncontroversial.”
Are women adult human females? (2020, background): “The same argument, minus the crucial last sentence of the quotation, is in Kessler and McKenna 1978: 1–2. targeted the purported sufficient conditions.”
