Every Friday, we will share links to news, blogs, and anything else we find interesting. We can’t catch everything, so you are invited to self-promote in the comments!

There’s a new academic paper, “A positive Approach Towards Asexuality”, discussing definitions of asexuality.
There’s also a new academic paper on ethics in participant recruitment, based on a study of asexuality.
Calls for Participants/Submissions
A validity study of a scale of asexual identity is looking for participants.

Asexual Research is looking for mods.
An IB student is running a survey to see if there is a correlation between GDP per capita and asexuality stats in select countries.
Would anyone who has database access be willing to email me a copy of the positive approach to asexuality paper? 🙂
I sent you a copy.
Such prompt service! 😀 Thanks Siggy.
I stumbled across your blog on Twitter and I just want to say I’m so happy to have found it. I’ve known I’m asexual for a while but I still had so many questions and you have so many wonderful resources here. Thank you for making this blog!
I actually have yet another ace research project that I am recruiting volunteers for – can I get a promo for this next week? http://asexualresearch.tumblr.com/post/156615315572/asexual-research-zotero-bibliography
Thanks!
Yep, dropping it in there!
