Thesis Title
- Language and Identity Practice: a Sociolinguistic Study of
Gender in Ottawa, Ontario.
Thesis Description
I am looking at three gender-indexing variables in Ottawa, studied across several gender and identity categories (queer/straight, male/female, transsexual/bisexual). I am examing how speakers in these different categories use these variables, and how this compares to popular notions of language and gender.
