Race. Sex. Class. Orientation. Age. Identity.


At this point, the word-count is beginning to lose its meaning. Chapter 5 has now become two chapters, but is just about finished. It's the "Screen Scene" chapter that's givin' me trouble-- not a lot of info on webcomics from a sociologist's point of view, so just about every point of data is a hard-fought battle. To say nothing of dancing around these hot-button topics, saying what needs to be said without having people hear anything you don't want to say. Eet's a treecky one.

Comments:
It's not that bad. Considering this is the part where they add new entries all across the alphabet rather than concentrate on sections in order, it's where these words would logically show up if they have some new sources or contributors in this field.

Now if the words in sections like papula to paul were disproportionately food-related, that might be cause for concern.

I also note they added "emo"...
