Academics and scholars must be mindful about using research done by only straight, white men, according to two scientists who argued that it oppresses diverse voices and bolsters the status of already privileged and established white male scholars.
Geographers Carrie Mott and Daniel Cockayne argued in a recent paper that doing so also perpetuates what they call white heteromasculinism, which they defined as a system of oppression that benefits only those who are white, male, able-bodied, economically privileged, heterosexual, and cisgendered. (Cisgendered describes people whose gender identity matches their birth sex.)
In their 22-page paper, Citation matters: mobilizing the politics of citation toward a practice of 'conscientious engagement,'" they explained that their work was motivated by shared feelings of discomfort, frustration, and anger over actions of fellow scholars and publication practices.

Why am I NOT surprised that this propaganda piece was published in WaPo?
I look forward to reading about all the quantum physics research being done in sub-Saharan Africa.
They seek to convert America to a neo Sodom & Gommorah . On the honor of the blood of our forefathers , hunt them down . Make them repent or pay the ultimate costs . The future of our great land , people and history is NOT in their hands .
“Geographers Carrie Mott and Daniel Cockayne argued in a recent paper that doing so also perpetuates what they call white heteromasculinism, which they defined as a system of oppression”
The stupid is strong with these two.
This isn't the first time......
People like that make me think of the General Bradford Steele character in “M*A*S*H” (Harry Morgan’s first appearance in the series in a guest role).
Geographers Carrie Mott and Daniel Cockayne, you are small and petty people who lack anything of intelligence to put forth. Go away.
I’m A Boy (The Who)
One girl was called Jean Marie
Another little girl was Felicity
Another little girl was Sally Joy
The other was me, and I’m a boy
My name is Bill and I’m a headcase
They practice making up on my face
Yeah, I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend evenings taking hairpins from my hair
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But my ma won’t admit it
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But if I say I am I get it
Put your frock on, Jean Marie
Plait your hair, Felicity
Paint your nails, little Sally Joy
Put this wig on, little Boy
I wanna play cricket on the green
Ride my bike across the street
Cut myself and see my blood
Wanna come home all covered in mud
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But my ma won’t admit it
I’m a boy, I’m a boy
But if I say I am I get it
Why stop there? These intellectuals should demand everything ever invented by straight white men be destroyed immediately and the technology be destroyed too, so maybe the right types of people have a chance to invent it. smh.....
When I wrote the dissertation for my doctorate two years ago, I completely ignored the sex and sexual orientation of the authors I cited. I concentrated on the provable value of their work. Silly me.
Geographers? I thought they studied maps and the physical earth.
Like the “reparations” issue, I take nonsense like this as an acknowledgment that the “others” have accepted genetic inferiority (on their part) and are lashing out angrily.
Good grief! In a not too distant past, we would call these professors "faggots" and laugh at them.
Professors. My daddy always said: Those who cannot do, teach.
Probably "cultural geographers", who supposedly study things like the impact of geography on the people who inhabit it.
The anti-white male has been building steam for a couple of decades now.
It is now not only an accepted form of discrimination and bigotry, but fashionable. Even expected now.
And because they cannot, they are jealous of tbose who can.
