Good morning. This is Joshua David Stein, Out magazine's editor-at-large. Today I'll be heading to the Canadian city of Montreal, which I call Mantreal (get it?), to attend the American Men's Studies Association 17th annual Conference on Men and Masculinities. The conference is a chance for leading masculinity scholars to present papers and fucking party so hard you'll be like "Woah!" and they'll be like, "Yeah, no big deal, we party hard."
I'll be Twittering the conference and my trip into the wilds of Quebecoise nightlife -- surely the first time an academic conference has been live Twittered. You can follow my exegesis via Out's Twitter but also via our blog. Check out the schedule here.
Here are a couple things I'm excited about:
- The Men in Popular Culture session featuring a talk on Representations of Masculinity in Disney Films (Aladdin! Sebastian! Shrek!) by Ryan Kelly and Greg Kerwin.
- Funny grad student fights!
- A talk by a guy called H. Alexander Welcome on "Richard Pryor's Nurturing Masculinity"
- The Men, Sports and Action panel including a talk on MMA, "Masculinity at Play" and the Homosocial Construction of Masculinity in the Military. HOTTT.
- "He sounds like a fag" Defining masculinity in queer linguistic research. Perhaps the answer to the gay lisp question!?!?
- There's a stall at the Marche Jean-Tallon with smoked pig cheeks. I'll try to smuggle some back.
If you have any requests or suggestions of how to pass my nights and days, leave a comment. Not a moment will go by where I am not somewhat compulsively liveblogging or tweeting.
