Hi Joshua

Not sure if you're aware of the collection 'Culinary Linguistics' (2013 John Benjamin's). There is at least one gender-themed chapter in there.

Best,

Brian King

Subject: [Gala-l] Gendered discourse about food and drink

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
