Episode 93: How nonbinary and binary people talk - Interview with Jacq Jones

There are many ways that people perform gender, from clothing and hairstyle to how we talk or carry ourselves. When doing linguistic analysis of one aspect, such as someone's voice, it's useful to also consider the fuller picture such as what they're wearing and who they're talking with.

In this episode, your host Gretchen McCulloch gets enthusiastic about how nonbinary people talk with Jacq Jones, who's a lecturer at Te Kunenga ki Pūrehuroa / Massey University in Auckland, New Zealand. We talk about their research on how nonbinary and binary people make choices about how to perform gender using their voices and other variables like clothing, and later collaborating with one of their research participants to reflect on how it feels to have your personal voice and gender expression plotted on a chart. We also talk about linguistic geography, Canadian and New Zealand Englishes, and the secret plurality of R sounds in English and how you can figure out which one you have by poking yourself (gently!) with a toothpick.

Announcements:

In this month’s bonus episode we get enthusiastic about three of our favourite kinds of linguistic mixups: spoonerisms, mondegreens, and eggcorns! We talk about William Spooner, the Oxford prof from the 1800s that many spoonerisms are (falsely) attributed to, Lauren's very Australian 90s picture book of spoonerisms, the Scottish song "The Bonny Earl of Moray" which gave rise to the term mondegreen, why there are so many more mondegreens in older pop songs and folk songs than there are now, and how eggcorn is a double eggcorn (a mis-parsing of acorn, which itself is an eggcorn of oak-corn for akern).

This blog has had a distinct lack of Edmund Warden content recently. I felt I needed to fix that, so here are some redraw sketches from a couple Superjail episodes.

Major Trigun Stampede Spoilers Ahead!!! Be careful!

Meryl is literally me. (Smol and Sassy, but I will deny the first one.) Here's MORE Trigun sillies to cope with my extra shot of expresso depresso! Hopefully, the JJK anime would be kinder to my heart. I mean, it has "jk" in it. So I should be fine, right? ...RIGHT??? (Honestly though I really need to watch the show with the amount of people who recommended it to me after I said I like the characters in Trigun.) Still wanna draw more fluff and humor for this fandom though! God knows we all need it. Just been busy is all. Enjoy, everyone! =D -Bubbly💙

She was late for everything: meals, church, trains, and, worst of all, big ceremonies. The story is told that she was even late for her Coronation and that my grandfather, exasperated, burst into her room, watch in hand, remonstrating, "My dear Alix, if you don't come immediately you won't be crowned Queen."
