Language and gender are interconnected, social and relational acts
through which we constantly remake our worlds. But what happens
when our ways of doing gender cannot be neatly categorized into
traditional binary systems, including not only the social groupings
of roles, practices, and identities but also the forms and
structures through which we do language? This book brings together
a broad range of scholars to explore the undoing and redoing of
gender binaries in non-Anglophone communities and contexts, in and
through their linguistic and social reimaginings. Each of the
contributions to this book reflects on this ongoing change and its
place in our everyday lives, including the ways that its outcomes
are both contested and fluid. This volume represents an important
step in scholarship in language and gender, one that stands to
inform a public increasingly aware of these remakings and one that
calls on all of us to stand in the tensions of our own humanity and
look through it for how our languaging might ‘do’ imaginary
worlds that are more equitable, more connected, and more just for
us all.
