Chapter Publication: Analysis of Asari Sexuality/Digital Love: Romance & Sexuality in Games

I'm excited to announce the publication of my chapter for the book Digital Love: Romance & Sexuality in Video Games (Taylor & Francis, 2017)!

My chapter is entitled "From Smoldering Justicar to Blue-Skinned Space Babe: Asari Sexuality in Mass Effect," and I analyzed the Asari maiden-matron-matriarch paradigm to show how it promotes more comprehensive representation of female sexuality in video games. This is a topic that I could happily expand on for a much larger piece, but it was a pleasure to write and I'm so thankful to the book's editor, Heidi McDonald, for selecting my proposal.

If you'd like to check out my analysis and the work of 15 other talented game industry folks whom I greatly admire, pick up your copy of Digital Love: Romance & Sexuality in Video Games today!
