About
I've published widely on the area of law and sexuality and legal education. A queer theorist; my research explores the intersection of law, sexuality and technology and has focused upon the phenomena of public sex, male for male sex work and more recently, barebacking. I have advised LGBT community and health groups, the NHS, Police and UK Parliament.
I organise the Gender, Sexuality and Law stream of the Socio-Legal Studies Association (SLSA) and sit on the executive of the SLSA and Association of Law Teachers. I'm also a member of the Society of Legal Scholars Legal Education Sub-Committee .
I am also a member of the Centre for Sex Work Research and Policy, UK.
I'm Deputy Reviews Editor of the Law Teacher: The International Journal of Legal Education, and a member of the Editorial Board. I've previously guest edited numerous issues of the Web Journal of Current Legal Issues and Information & Communications Technology Law and Liverpool Law Review. I've also edited a special issue of Sexualities on the subject of 'Law and Sexualities' to be published in 2011.
I'm also working on a monograph entitled 'Public Sex and the Law: Silent Desire' to be published by Routledge-Cavendish in 2012.
I supervise students in the area of law and sexuality and I'm always interested in hearing from potential doctorate students. Please contact me directly at my Sunderland email address.
