Interview with Ashley Remminga, a PhD research student from the University of Tasmania's School of Global Cultures and Languages. We delve into Ashley's completed MA thesis from La Trobe University, titled “Gendered Speech in the Inclusive Fandom: How Gendered Terms and Transmisogyny Shape the Experience of Gender-Diverse Cosplayers.” Our conversation covers the nuances of gendered speech, the impact of transmisogyny, and the broader implications of Ashley's research.

Ashley’s work shines a light on queer, transgender, and gender-diverse participation within popular culture and fandom. We also explore her current research on how gender-diverse individuals interpret genderbending in anime and manga.
