Finished it in the nick of time and got into the prof's office just before she left.

:eek:Now entering page 16. Need twenty formatted pages by 3:30-4 pm!:eek:

Tell me about it... At this point I'm hoping to ride out the economic depression in grad school without accruing too much debt. I envy your chance to get to understand your dad a bit better. Right now I'm trying to plow through the next ten pages of writing about Poly in a gendered, feminist...

IT? Huh, small world. One of my two undergrad degrees is in Business Information Systems. Though most of the business classes made me feel like a dirty human being by the end.

Well, I figure research what you love. I just wish I had a group of poly friends geographically close to me other than my (currently only) girlfriend, who is down here for a part time job we found her and because apparently being around me helps with her depression. She's currently rooting me...

I actually had a email exchange going with Professor Sheff for a part of last semester. Felt weird because I felt like I was intruding without a clear question to ask. lol Ouch, personal life can be so much simpler when you're an agnostic in philosophy and an atheist in practice. ;) Though...

I'm taking a quick break from that paper to write up a short one for survey methods that is due tomorrow. The Feminist one is due Thursday night.

If you want, sure. Though I'm not sure if I'd kill the post limit size given that these will be over twenty pages.

Peabean I'm reviewing what little literature there is without focusing one one particular theorist. Though I tend to shy away from Sex at Dawn because as a sociologist I tend to see evolutionary psychology to be exceptionally flawed. You make a good point with the objective (I wouldn't say...

The syllabus details are as follows: "consider a particular issue (e.g., war, poverty, privacy rights) and show how a gendered theoretical perspective reveals what is otherwise invisible. Your paper should include discussion of several theorists on a single issue. In either case, your work...

I am hoping to have the room in the paper to discuss the heterogeneity of poly identity, which i think is what you're touching on. If you get a chance to look at Hadar Aviram's article "Make Love, Not Law" she makes an excellent case for the heterogeneity, lack of coherent group identity and...

I'm not sure about the promiscuity, as that entails to some degree not letting one's other partners know. Though the patterns you remark upon could be due to the overall sex positive mindset among the community and its overlap with the 'slut' culture, and other sub-cultural groups such as kink...

I'm not finding much as yet since I just started the introduction. I finished my other 20 page paper yesterday morning at 7am and then dived into bed. Tomorrow will be diving through the journal articles I've rounded up and getting a better idea of how I'm outlining this thing. As for types...

Ah, mea culpa. No real thesis statement, it's a literature review with the general guideline of asking what feminist theory would have to say concerning polyamory.

Currently my working research question for my thesis is, "How do Polyamorous individuals conceptualize of family?" However, I'm not touching that til I finish this paper for feminist theory, which was more of what I was talking about when I threw that advice remark out. In general I'm looking...

I'm a sociology masters student in the Northern Virginia area. Just finished my paper for my Globalization class trying to link globalization to poly. Proved to be an interesting and, at times, frustrating endeavor. Next up is a 20 page paper examining poly through feminist theory. Any...
