<p>Hi Karen,</p>
<p>I really like Robin Queen's article on lesbian humor:</p>
<p><span style="color:rgb(28,29,30); font-family:"Open Sans",icomoon,sans-serif; font-size:14px">Queen, R. (2005), "How Many Lesbians Does It Take …". Journal of Linguistic Anthropology, 15: 239-257. </span><br>
</p>
<p><span style="color:rgb(28,29,30); font-family:"Open Sans",icomoon,sans-serif; font-size:14px"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:rgb(28,29,30); font-family:"Open Sans",icomoon,sans-serif; font-size:14px">I also highly recommend Kira Hall's work and Rudi Gaudio's work, which includes passages related to humor. </span></p>

invokes stereotypes. If anyone has any suggestions, I’d be grateful.</span></p>
