<div>Dear IGALA members</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Gender and Language, the journal of the International Gender and Language Association (IGALA), is published by Equinox and has been running since 2007. It is the only scholarly journal to offer an international forum for research on and debates about feminist,
queer, trans, and nonbinary research on language, gender, and sexuality. It showcases research on femininities and masculinities, on heterosexual and queer identities, on gender at the level of individual performance or perception and on gender at the level
of institutions and ideologies.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The journal encourages debate about the implications of different definitions of gender and different approaches to analyzing the production and interpretation of texts and speech, and aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue. For further information
on the journal, please see https://journal.equinoxpub.com/GL/about. </div>
