Mona Laya Jaye Camille This study article seeks to explore the experiences
Andrada Joseph Ray Estrella of gay and bisexual men within male-dominated
organizations and use these insights to effectively
impact diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. It
examines how hegemonic masculinity,
marginalization, and excessive visibility shape
perceptions of professionalism and leadership
qualities of gay and bisexual men in the military
and other predominantly male institutions.
Carolina Pia Garcia Johnson This paper offers an integrated model for achieving
and Kathleen Otto gender equality in the workplace, aimed at both
scholars and HRM practitioners. It starts by
examining the causes and effects of gender-based
discrimination and harassment (GBDH). Next, it
incorporates the viewpoints of feminists, queer
theorists, and intersectional scholars. The paper
then advocates for an inclusive HRM approach by
drawing on research related to women and LGBTQ
individuals in the workplace. It emphasizes the
importance of collaboration between industry and
academia and provides a beginner's toolkit with
recommendations for diagnosing, addressing, and
researching GBDH. Finally, it outlines areas for
further research into gendered behaviors that
hinder the professional advancement of women
and LGBTQ individuals.
Brad Sears Founding This research utilizes data from a summer 2023
Executive Director Neko survey of 1,902 LGBTQ individuals in the workforce
Castleberry Research Data to explore their experiences with harassment and
Analyst Andy Lin Senior discrimination. It builds upon a similar report
Statistical Consultant, UCLA released by the Williams Institute in 2021. The
Office of Advanced Research study examines LGBTQ employees' work
Computing Christy Mallory experiences over their lifetime, the past five years,
Legal Director and the previous year. It compares the
experiences of LGBTQ employees of color with
those of White LGBTQ employees, as well as the
experiences of transgender and nonbinary (TNB)
Kat Joachim This study uses constructivist grounded theory and
a social justice framework to explore how gay men
form social connections in work environments
traditionally dominated by hypermasculine and
heteronormative ideals. Constructivist grounded
theory emphasizes individual viewpoints and the
social justice perspective, focusing on experiences
specifically related to this stigmatized and
marginalized community.
Clifton scott, Aly stetyick, While the role of sexuality in male-dominated
Jaime bochantin organizations has been less explored, extensive
research has long demonstrated that most
organizations and their communication processes
reflect and reinforce hegemonic masculinity. This
trend risks entrenching hegemonic norms and
practices that continue to influence organizational
life in the 21st century. This chapter begins by
clarifying the often ambiguous distinctions
between gender, sex, and sexuality. It then
reviews empirical research on sexuality in male-
dominated environments. Finally, it addresses the
significance of male sexuality and its impact on
communication structures, interactions with
external stakeholders, hiring practices, and the
occupational norms that organizational members
perpetuate and occasionally modify through
communication.
Hannah Alyssa Crouse This thesis explores the ways in which gay-straight
alliances (GSA) can foster a sense of community
and offer a chance for revolutionary change among
young queer people. I interviewed GSA advisors
five times at a small maritime school. The GSA
produced emancipatory paedagogy, and the
participant narratives mirrored these ideas along
with thoughts on allyship and communion with the
oppressed. The study's conclusions demonstrate
the obvious need for safe spaces in schools and
the importance of giving these LGBT youth top
priority in institutional reform. These GSAs serve
as a tiny part of the institutional change that is
required to break the subject-object dynamic that
exists between queer youth and those who
oppress them.
Susan B. Marine American colleges are increasingly becoming more
inclusive spaces for queer students, with
significant progress in integrating BGLT (bisexual,
gay, lesbian, and transgender) individuals. This
monograph presents a summary of the research
and theories related to BGLT students and their
movements within higher education. It outlines the
evolution of BGLT students’ presence on
campuses, which mirrors the broader gay rights
movement in the U.S. The publication provides
insight into how historically marginalized students
have navigated and succeeded in higher
education, highlights their growing visibility on
campuses, and reviews the existing knowledge on
BGLT identity development. Additionally, it
assesses the unique experiences of transgender
students, as well as the role of BGLT campus
resource centers in supporting students and
fostering equity.
Ann Wanjiku Vestlie Across the globe research shows that even in
countries where homosexuality is not criminalized,
gender and sexual minorities experience
discrimination and stigma in their worker roles
Resnick, C. A., & Galupo, M. P. LGBT people often face microaggressions at work,
(2018) but there's been little research on this because
there aren’t many reliable tools to measure these
experiences. To address this, a study was
conducted to create and test a new tool called the
LGBT-MEWS. This tool is a 27-question self-report
survey with three sections that look at different
ways microaggressions affect LGBT employees: (1)
how workplace values might impact them, (2)
assumptions based on heterosexual norms, and (3)
attitudes shaped by a cisnormative culture. The
testing showed that this tool is both reliable and
valid, making it a valuable resource for
understanding and addressing microaggressions in
the workplace.
Bridges, D., Wulff, E., Jobs in the skilled trades are still very male-
Bamberry, L., Krivokapic- dominated, with women making up just 1–3% of
Skoko, B., & Jenkins, S. (2020) the workforce in Western countries. We reviewed
26 studies from 1998 to 2019 to understand why
this is the case and what can be done about it. Our
review had two main goals: to identify the
challenges women face in these fields and to
pinpoint factors that help them succeed. We found
that while there is a lot of focus on the obstacles
women encounter, such as the entrenched
masculine culture in these trades, there isn't
enough discussion on how to overcome these
barriers. Most studies point to the failure of this
masculine culture to adapt as a major reason for
the low numbers of women in trades. However,
there’s not much theoretical exploration of how
this masculine culture affects women beyond
traditional gender roles. Additionally, we
discovered that women in skilled trades face two
specific issues more than women in other parts of
the industry: the way gender affects their physical
work and the informal, unregulated nature of their
employment practices. These unique challenges
highlight important areas for future research to
better support women in the skilled trades.
