Hi Megan Rose,
Thank you for a wonderful lecture and for answering my question about age in Harajuku communities. What you said about barriers regarding physical disability, economic standing, etc. was fascinating. (Every time you said “that’s another lecture”) it got even more interesting!
Very excited to be presenting on audio porn/situation voice again at the 2025 Mechademia Kyoto conference! The schedule was just released.

Excited to announce I will be heading to Chicago next year for #SCMS2025, for a roundtable with Katie Morrisey, Lori Morimoto, Areum Jeong, and Latina Vidolova on "Adapting Media Studies Pedagogy for Today's Global Media Ecosystem." Yes, I'll be talking about BL (as usual)!

Are you interested to learn how fandom for Thai #BL is building Thai soft power in Japan? Here is a lecture I gave earlier this year exploring the intersections of Thai BL and tourism campaigns for a Japanese audience!
