This longitudinal study is based on the story of Lola, who was gang raped during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1992.  At the time, she was in a detention camp with her young children. Only one of Lola’s several perpetrators was convicted but his sentence of six years of imprisonment has never been actioned by the Bosnian judiciary. Lola’s rapist is still free and she lives in continual fear that he will retaliate against her and her children for her role in his trial.

  • Language and Gender in the Military
    Edith A. Disler
    In the thirty-year history of the study of language and gender, theory and application have branched incrementally like the reaches of a family tree. The study of language and gender has progressed from an eye-opening review of differences between the 'language' of women and men to observations that language served to preserve 'domination' of one sex over another and on to a cr...
  • Online Intersex Communities
    Brian Still
    Once referred to as hermaphrodites, intersex persons are born with a sexual anatomy or physiology inconsistent with social expectations of what constitutes a normal male or female. Of course, this definition of intersexuality, like all definitions, is rhetorically charged. In other words, intersexuality does not have meaning in and of itself that can be separated from the cultu...
