Relevant answer
Answer
We are all learning to re-think and re-examine history in many different fields. Whose history is taught? Who is excluded from history? If a group is excluded from history, we need to ask why. As groups that have been traditionally excluded from the mainstream of history such as women, Hispanics, blacks, and other groups of color, etc. are now being addressed, as research surfaces that questions heteronormativty, it is logical that LGBT persons who have contributed to historical accomplishments be recognized.

As the author of Circumcision: The Hidden Trauma, I understand the various long-term psychological and neurobiological effects of circumcision. A growing number of men are aware of their PTSD symptoms connected with circumcision. Circumcision could affect the results of your work if it is not controlled in data collection. There is much that is not known about the effects of circumcision. Please help to increase our knowledge on this as you improve the methodology of your study.

Answer
Thanks for your response. I'm primarily referring to circumcision forced on healthy infants and children for no medical reason due to cultural beliefs and social pressure.

Could you hint me on relevant research on the theme of child-looking sex dolls and risk for sexual offending against children?
Thank you!
Relevant answer
Answer
I have a student who is interested in this as a research question. I think we will likely include questions about strategies people use (e.g., the use of dolls) to manage their sexual interests in a survey we are developing for online recruitment.

I'm currently working on my MA linguistic thesis that deals with narratives of people suffering from Sexual Orientation Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (SO-OCD or also called HOCD). My aim is to do a corpus analysis and critical discourse analysis of these narratives and compare them to coming out narratives of self-identified gay people. My aim is to explore if both groups share some similarities or if there are differences.

Not that Wikipedia is a peer-reviewed publication, but I recognized the name Paul Cameron. This is copied from the site (please note Cameron was expelled from the APA regarding an ethics inquiry):
[from Wikipedia] "Paul Drummond Cameron (born November 9, 1939) is an American psychologist and sex researcher. While employed at various institutions including the University of Nebraska he conducted research on passive smoking, but he is best known today for his claims about homosexuality. After a successful 1982 campaign against a gay rights proposal in Lincoln, Nebraska, he established the Institute for the Scientific Investigation of Sexuality (ISIS), now known as the Family Research Institute (FRI). As FRI's chairman, Cameron has written papers associating homosexuality with perpetration of child sexual abuse and reduced life expectancy.
In 1983, the American Psychological Association expelled Cameron for non-cooperation with an ethics investigation. Position statements issued by the American Sociological Association, Canadian Psychological Association and the Nebraska Psychological Association have accused Cameron of misrepresenting social science research."
