Picture shows a small dog with a shiny black coat, yellow pawsies and two yellow dots over her eyes (one over each eye). Her ears are flopsy but listening and alert. She is sitting in the grass being a very good girl.

In this special issue, the terms โ€˜singlenessโ€™ and โ€˜singlehoodโ€™ will both be used. While they are sometimes used interchangeably, their meanings slightly differ given the different connotation of their suffixes. The suffix โ€˜-nessโ€™ typically refers to a quality that is an important - perhaps valued - aspect of something or someone (see Quora). The suffix โ€˜-hoodโ€™ rather concerns a state or condition. A state, in turn, covers particular โ€˜circumstances or attributes at a specific time that the person or thing is in, e.g. state of health, state of mindโ€™, whereas a condition โ€˜has a degree of reference to the circumstances surrounding or affecting that state, e.g. poor living conditionsโ€™ (Quora, no page number). Given the latter connotations of โ€˜singlehoodโ€™, we will use this term consistently in this editorial, however, other authors in this special issue may adopt โ€˜singlenessโ€™ considering its more positive association. Accordingly, we welcome differences in terminology use throughout the articles and essays of this issue, as these may also stem from disciplinary differences and are therefore at the heart of embracing the messiness of studying single peopleโ€™s experiences (see Vertelyte, this issue).

Anybody who knows of papers on why we need to call sexism sexism and not gender inequality? - and how if we donโ€™t we are potentially hampering the transformative potential of our analysis/critique of social relations and organisations. Same for difference vs injustice, maybe? cf. epistemic injustice
