Ethical sex or good sex requires more than consent. It also requires a proper regard for one’s own self and for the other, including a proper regard for the other’s desires and beliefs (Archard, 2022), or ‘mutuality’, a caring attention to the other person (Lamb et al., 2021)

First day of teaching done! I've briefly talked about the role language plays throught the legal process.

Must say I was missing it.

Congrats, Helen!☺️

Hello! Could I be added, please?☺️

Thank you, Matteo!

Thank you so much!

I'm pleased to share that my entry for Janet Cotterill in the 2nd edition of the Encyclopedia of Applied Linguistics is expected to be published online in spring 2025, and in print in winter 2025. In there, I explore her remarkable research and her contributions in the field of language and law

Muchas gracias, Isabel!☺️
