“Cute Goddess is Actually an Aunty”: The Evasive Middle-Aged Woman Streamer and Normative Performances of Femininity in Video Game Streaming

2022

In this paper the focus is on the representations of “middle-aged” or “aging” women streamers in western media. I analyze discussions in Western online media around a case of Chinese DouYu live-streamer. “Qiaobiluo Dianxia,” as her streamer name goes, became a topic in Western media after a glitch in her live stream revealed her to be a middle-aged woman, rather than young woman she was assumed to be. The discussions are analyzed with critical discourse analysis. It is argued that the aging bodies of women, both their presence and absence, should be read and understood through toxic gaming culture and geek masculinity and the hegemonic discourse they constitute.

In a World Where You can be Anyone: An Investigation into the Gendered Social Practices of Pakistani Facebook Users

2021

AbstractThis article investigates the construction of gender identities of Pakistani men and women Facebook users given that Facebook has emerged as the prime social media platform through which Pakistani users interact. By employing thematic analysis and taking insights from theory of performativity and intersectionality, the findings of the interview data suggest that the formation, negotiation, and expression of gender identities on Facebook occurs through complex interplay between the discourses of religion, class, culture, and tradition. In some cases, Facebook highlighted the reproduction of the prevalent cultural models of masculinity and femininity while in other cases; there was re…

Jaetun johtajuuden näkökulma päivystyksessä tapahtuvaan työvuorokohtaiseen johtamiseen : sairaanhoitajien käsityksiä johtajuudesta, roolista ja toimi…

2017

Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää vastuuhoitajien käsityksiä jaetusta johtajuudesta ja rooliin liittyvästä toimijuudesta. Tutkimukseen osallistuneet sairaanhoitajat työskentelivät sairaalan päivystysyksikön vastuuhoitajajärjestelmässä. Vastuuhoitajana toimiva sairaanhoitaja työskentelee työvuorokohtaisesti työnjohtajana. Järjestelmää kehittäessä johtajuutta, valtaa ja vastuuta on jaettu työtehtävien muutoksen myötä. Tämä on samalla tuonut muutoksia vastuuhoitajarooliin, jota kuvataan käsitteellä roolitoimijuus. Tutkimus on toteutettu laadullisilla tutkimusmenetelmillä. Tutkimuksen aineisto koostuu 16 vastuuhoitajajärjestelmän parissa työskentele…

A tale of three seasons: a cultural sport psychology and gender performativity approach to practitioner identity and development in professional foot…

2020

The present study explored how the organisational and cultural experiences of a trainee Sport Psychology Consultant (SPC) working in professional football shaped her identity and professional development. Drawing on Cultural Sport Psychology (CSP) and gender performativity as guiding frameworks, we explored the first author’s identity development as a sport psychology practitioner-researcher within one professional football club over a 3-year duration. Traditional ethnographic data collection methods were employed, including, field notes and a reflective journal. Through creative non-fiction vignettes, we show that the traditional masculine discourse in professional football shaped the firs…

Roolit hajautettujen tiimien verkkokokouksissa

2013

Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tavoitteena oli kuvata millaisia rooleja hajautettujen tiimien verkkokokouksissa ilmenee ja tarkastella mittkä roolit korostuvat ja mitkä jäävät taka-alalle virtuaalisen ryhmän vuorovaikutuksessa. Tutkittavaa ilmiötä lähestyttiin käyttämällä aineistonkeruussa systemaattista havainnointia. Tutkielmassa havainnoitiin Connect Pro -verkkokokoussovellusta käyttäviä työryhmiä. Havainnoitava aineisto koostui viidestä verkkokokoustallenteesta. Tuloksissa käy ilmi, että verkkokokouksessa joitakin rooleja ilmenee useammin kuin kasvokkain tapaavan ryhmän toiminnassa. Näitä ovat muun muassa etsijä, rohkaisija ja portinvartija. Jotkut roolit muuttuvat ja niihin voidaan liittä…

Discursive Constructions of White Nordic Masculinities in Right-wing Populist Media

2018

Using superordinate intersectionality as a theoretical framework, this article explores notions of men and masculinities within right wing populism. It is attentive to how the right-wing populist media in Finland and Sweden construct white Nordic masculinities through discursive interactions across several axes of difference: gender (masculinities); sexuality (heterosexuality); social class (elites); and race (whitenesses). Employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as methodological approach, we show how the discursive constructions of white Nordic masculinities are context contingent, rendering them subject to constant reinterpretation and repositioning, at times privileging some axes of…

Attitudes and motivation in the treatment of IPV : a case study of two intimately violent men

2017

This case study used qualitative content analysis to examine the cases of two intimately violent men. Both participated in a group intervention but experienced dramatically different outcomes. In the case of "Henri", the intervention was especially successful, but in the case of "Mikael" it was unsuccessful. The data of this study consisted of the video tapes of the men’s therapy sessions, and of the interviews of their spouses. The research questions were the following: 1) Were there changes in the men’s attitudes toward a) women, b) masculinity and c) violent behavior?, 2) How high was the men’s motivation for treatment and making changes in themselves? and 3) Did their attitudes and moti…

The Concept of Love in Masculinist Blogs : A Strategic Ideal

2018

Love is often considered a positive emotion and an ethical relationship between people. The representations of love in contemporary culture usually emphasise its beneficial, even empowering effects. However, the fluidity of the concept also enables other kinds of representations of love to flourish. For example, the advocates of traditional gender order — masculinists or male rights activists (MRAs)-— use idealistic images of heterosexual love, often intertwined with the idealised heterosexual nuclear family, to promote repressive ideologies such as misogyny and antifeminism. This is increasingly done with the help of internet sites. In this chapter I wish to show that the fluidity of the c…
