Abstract:

Presenting a range of data obtained from secondary schools in the UK and US,
this path-breaking book explores the role played by language in constructing
sexual identities. Analysing the often complex ways in which homophobia,
heterosexism and heteronormativity are enacted within school contexts, it
shows that by analysing language, we can discover much about how educators and
students experience sexual diversity in their schools, how sexual identities
are constructed through language, and how different statuses are ascribed to
different sexual identities.

Introduction; 1. Confronting the context; 2. Researching language and
sexuality in educational settings; 3. Using sociolinguistic frameworks to
explore the school experiences of LGBT+ youth; 4. Educators' perspectives on
language and sexual diversity in schools; 5. Exploring ideologies of sexuality
in curriculum documents; 6. SRE classroom interaction analysis and the
construction of sexual identities; Closing remarks; References; Index.
