Editorial (Journal of Interdisciplinary Gender Studies)

This is a double issue and we hope you will feel that it was worth the wait. It carries reports of ground-breaking research by Chilla Bulbeck on international attitudes to feminism among young women in Australia and Asia as well as a range of fascinating articles including Suzanne Fraser on breast implants, Amanda Keddie on little boys and the gendered rhetoric of football, Christine Mason on the experience of women fighters in Eritrea, and Matthew Rofe and Hilary P. M. Winchester on motorcycling. Volume 8, which will also be a double issue, will be guest edited by Susan Jacobs of Manchester Metropolitan University on the theme of Feminist Organisations and Networks.
