/Profesional de la Información /seeks cutting-edge research studies, 
theoretical essays, and state-of-the-art critical review articles for a 
special issue dedicated to sex, gender, sexuality, and communication to 
be published in Volume 30, Issue 5 (September-October 2021) to be 
published in the journal. Articles with a pedagogical focus, especially 
those that elucidate specific concepts, technologies, or processes, will 
also be considered. This special issue will celebrate methodological and 
theoretical plurality, with the primary goal being to publish an 
excellent collection of research and theory that advances thinking about 
sex, genders, sexualities, and communication.

To that end, the editor will accept manuscripts featuring research using 
quantitative and/or qualitative social scientific methods; 
critique-oriented methods such as rhetorical, cultural, or media 
criticism; and scholarship that is highly creative, especially as it 
advances theory.

Manuscripts submitted for consideration must clearly advance 
communicative aspects of one of the following special issue areas:

/Sex/: Research or theorizing that examines sexual communication, 
ranging from sexual activity to talk about sex to sexual technologies to 
sex-oriented media studies.

/Genders/: Research or theorizing that examines social and/or cultural 
notions of identities as they relate to social expectations, 
performances, transgressions, and/or articulations of masculine and 
feminine identity. Work that moves beyond masculine/feminine identity is 
especially welcome, including work that examines transgender and/or 
gender non-conforming identities.

/Sexualities/: Research or theorizing related to sexual performance, 
capacities, and feelings. For this special issue, work focused on 
identity is especially welcomed – including work that adopts 
intersectional theorizing about sexualities.

Those submitting to the special issue should follow the directions for 
submission found on the journal website
