The Journal of Language and Sexuality publishes research on the discursive construction of sexuality, including sexual desire, identities, politics, and diaspora. It explores linguistic approaches such as sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, and pragmatics to investigate the social and linguistic consequences of discourses of sexuality. The journal is influenced by Queer Linguistics and often employs labeling theory to analyze how language shapes and reflects sexual identities and practices.
