Hi all! I have a new article out! I introduce privilege diffusion—a rhetorical strategy that disperses blame on to vague forces like “culture” or “masculinity,” that appear critical but ultimately obscure responsibility for those with privilege.

@JakeMGrumbach @newrepublic How is this data related to the manosphere? In my own anaysis of these forums young men talked about uniting cross-racially to oppress women. They called it 'white-sharia' and bonding with their muslim 'brothers'

[Jillian Sunderland @SocJillian]

But views on gender don’t show similar patterns. The manosphere is primarily based on gender grievance. Genz is less in favour of gender equality than older generations.

New from me and Bonica today in @newrepublic: Gen Z is the most racially progressive generation ever, including among men & noncollege educated

Their music taste is pretty bad tho

Grad programs often don't teach scholars how to write good reviewer reports. Here are some helpful resources.

1. @BrendanNyhan's review checklist: https://t.co/cmGHqNkSim

2. "How to Write an Effective Referee Report": https://t.co/dqXIfuFDCN

What else am I missing?

My new blog post is a collection of syllabi for classes I taught at the Stanford Graduate School of Education.  Each syllabus includes links to nearly all course readings, tips for doing the reading, and class slides.  As a result you can take the course, either individually and in groups.  Feel free to share the syllabi with anyone you want.  Click on the link to get the syllabus as a Word document with embedded links.  Please feel free to share.

Enduring competition makes people less cooperative. A 2-year competition in schools made students less prosocial (less willing to help or cooperate). Even 4 years later, the effect was still there, suggesting it changed their personality traits, not just their short-term behavior

@arnavmahajan_ Thanks so much for reading, I appreciate it!!!

[Arnav Mahajan @arnavmahajan_]

interesting how this concept could be mapped onto narratives for gun violence in media… there seems to be an obfuscation of the underlying causes in favor of culture war wins (which are also people with social capital (read: privilege)) that get more clicks. fascinating read!

Since 2018, the percentage of American boys who believe in gender equality has nosedived.

@JamesGacek Thank you!!! :)

@bumpernackle @CartoonsHateHer Yes they have ways to include survey questions that get away from desirability bias for contentious questions. These seem not included here or addressed. Also research on men cheating more and doing less housework for wives who out earn them would indicate complexity.

NEW PUB ALERT!!! 🚨 My paper shows how East Asian women in relationships w White, Black, and South Asian men construct racialized masculinities in romantic contexts. I reveal how these processes can both challenge and reinforce gender and racial hierarchies @SREJournal #Sociology
