Sex, Sass, and Sensibility in South Korea
Busan, South Korea
Assistant Professor of English by day, freelance writer and independent scholar by night, giving you a feminist take on sex(uality), sass, and sensibility in South Korea. Resident of South Korea for 24 years. Also, a heads-up that despite my picture, I'm actually a cishet, middle-aged white man. For more about me, and especially on how I address the issues my background raises in focusing on the topics that I do, please see here: https://thegrandnarrative.com/about-2/ :)
