Gender Roles & Sexual Identity

We live in a world where we are obsessed with categorising people according to class, gender, sexuality or cultural background. This month’s journal focuses on these different categories and our struggle when we realise we may be stuck or placed in the wrong box. Within this context contributors discuss monogamy, relationships, gender stereotypes, sexual identity and the difficulties that arise when we try to apply terms like transgender, same sex and intersex.
