[Gala-l] Gendered discourse about food and drink

[Joshua Raclaw]

Hi all,

A student of mine is interested in looking more closely at the notion of
"girl beers", "girly drinks", and other gendered constructions of alcohol
(and food) products and consumption. Does anyone have any recommendations
about research that has looked at similar topics, either dealing
specifically with alcohol or with the broader gendering of food? (Hines'
paper on gendered metaphors and food is the only thing that comes to mind.)

Suggestions for work in the area of language and gender preferred, but I'd
also greatly appreciate broader approaches that may be relevant (e.g.,
Carol J. Adams' work on the gendered politics of meat, Rozin et al. 2012
<http://www.jcr-admin.org/files/pressPDFs/032212085321_Rozin.pdf>).

Thanks in advance!

Josh
