this is on my list! excited for it.

as an aside, one of our recent findings might be of particular interest to this group

we find evidence of "degendering" in large-scale (mostly) English-langauge text about Asian people, esp East Asian: https://doi.org/10.1177/01461672241232114

male and female names that are common among self-identified Asian people were relatively unassociated with male and female gender concepts (e.g., "man" "woman") relative to White and Hispanic names

in a supplementary analysis this was much stronger for East Asian than South Asian names

hehe i remember you posted about it so I got to cite it in my paper

it's an interesting/troubling finding if it replicates. it seems to me like a potentially unique form of 'othering' given the primacy of gender in attributions of humanity (ala Ashely Martin's work)

It replicated in my paper for sure. I tried to make the (de)humanization argument but reviewers didn’t like it lol

is it this paper? I don't think I'd seen this yet!
