Word Cloud

 By Vivi In this post, I will talk about my observations on the image I attached below. This was created by Wordclouds.com , a Dutch Word Cloud generating site that allows you to produce attractive and informative images with ease. To create this, I have used an article by the Gurdian on anti-gender identity.  From this word cloud, we can see that the repeated words are "gender", "anti-gender", and "ideology." This seems obvious since the whole theme is about anti-gender ideology. I found the word "feminist" interesting to see within the word cloud. According to the article, this is because the LGBTQ+ movement coincided with the feminist movement.   Butler, J. (2021, October 23). Why is the idea of “gender” provoking backlash the world over? .

Using the Corpus "COCA" for "Gender identity"

Image
  By Kana I searched on COCA for the occurrences of the word "Gender Identity" and in this post, I'm going to show you what I got.

It is also frequently featured in the blog as well.

From 1990 to 2004, it is rarely talked about in any of the categories. The number started to rise gradually from 2005 and in 2019, the number hit 432 in frequency, which is the highest in the past 30 years. This is probably because about 10 years ago, the word "G...

Overall Summary: Vivi

  By Vivi Starting this blog as a mandatory assignment, I initially approached the topic of gender identity with only basic understanding. My knowledge was limited to simple concepts like the knowing the difference between gender and sex, as well as the existence of non-binary identities. However, doing further research on the subject showed a new side to this controversial topic. What I discovered was a complex issue, something way different from the oversimplified portrayals that I see on my phone or on the news.  Other than gender identity, I was able to learn how to use different platforms when searching for information through the Internet. Even if a website looks legitimate, by factchecking and crosschecking with different websites, it can turn out to have false information. Using surveys and questionnaires were a first for me as well. I had never thought to create my own data instead of looking for them.  Reflection on Presentation Although I believe we did a good ...
