Extant works on masculinities have focused on their differential patterns in Nigeria. However, none of these studies has examined how masculinities are constructed through the metaphorical representation of alcoholic herbal sex drinks and their functions. Drawing insights from Lakoff and Johnson’s conceptual metaphor theory, Forceville’s visual metaphor and van Dijk’s socio-cognitive approach to ideology to analyze the names together with verbo-visual conceptualization of alcoholic herbal sex drinks, this paper discusses some of the subcultural ideologies that delineate masculinities among the manufacturers, sellers, and consumers of these drinks in southwestern Nigeria. Analysis of the data reveals the construction of masculinities by this group in terms of the territorial and subordinating sexual status of the male. Also, the male sex organ and muscular male body are conceptualized by this group as sexual weapons, controllers of the female sexual satisfaction, and the cleaning agents for vagina. The paper concludes that these drinks and the associated sexual beliefs reflect some of the trending subcultural ideologies that discursively shape the construction of masculinities in Nigeria.

In the United States the law espouses contrary principles about the relationship between identity categories, such as race and gender, and justice. On the one hand, a more representative judiciary is seen to be a way to ensure greater justice. On the other, the law is assumed to be “blind” to parties’ identities; race and gender of judges and litigants doesn’t matter. These contrary principles create a dilemma when judges narrate their career. This study examines interviews with 20 retired and senior judges, five judges of each of four racial-gender categories: Black and white men and women, culled from the city of Philadelphia’s Senior Judge Oral History Program. After providing specifics about the Senior Judge interviews, past research on gender and race influences on professional talk, and describing issues to consider in interviews, I analyze the interviews and show that judges deal with the dilemma of identities mattering AND identities not mattering by distinguishing two phases of life: how a person came to be a judge and what a person did as a judge. In explaining how one came to be a judge, the person’s race and gender were clear influences. In contrast, when judges narrated their work activities, what they did as a judge, there were few discursive tells revealing a judge’s race or gender. In concluding I consider the problems and advantages of managing this justice-identities dilemma in the fashion that these judges did and suggest a direction for future research.

This article looks at the mechanism of counter-discourse production as a form of feminist digital activism in China. Taking the case of a Weibo post as an illustrative example, it explores how the counter-discourses against gender asymmetry are created, what accounts for the maintenance and dissemination of the counter-discourses, how the counter-discourses become part of the online discursive activism with online and offline effects, and what inspirations the ecology of such counter-discourse formation has for future feminist digital activism. Applying feminist critical discourse analysis (CDA) with linguistic and textual analysis, it seeks to reveal that, with linguistic device of satire, a Weibo post generated a counterpublic that challenges the dominant patriarchal discourse by exposing the hidden nature of its rhetoric and making visible what used to be taken for granted. It further demonstrates that, by utilizing the digital tool of screenshot and media mechanism of hashtag, the counterpublic produced and disseminated counter-discourses that generated, on top of conscious-raising, the will and agency to spread feminist thinking to compete with the dominant gender discourse and promote activism aimed at changing the status quo.

Drawing on Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), and anchored on CDA theory, we argue that as the ruling party’s governance record increasingly came under scrutiny in two election cycles researched, the Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF), largely maintained its old strategies of power legitimation. However, it altered the message in order to reflect the changing intensity of political contestation, an increasingly bellicose political opposition and growing dissent within its own ranks, as well as the shifting economic fortunes of the country. Forced to campaign under these circumstances, ZANU-PF trusted, with notable variations, its old discourse strategies to produce election advertisements that legitimised its hold on power, hegemony and spread its ideology. The findings show that whereas in July, 2018, the message changed to reflect the leadership change, ZANU-PF’s legitimation strategies remained unchanged. Similarly, we note that whereas the ‘them’ that had to be de-legitimised in 2013 was unequivocally Tsvangirai and the Movement for Democratic Change Tsvangirai (MDC-T), in 2018 ‘them’ not only referred to Nelson Chamisa and MDC Alliance, but it also referred to Mugabe and curiously not ZANU-PF under Mugabe. Including ZANU-PF under Mugabe, we argue, would have also inadvertently de-legitimised both Mnangagwa and ZANU-PF.

Historically, companies have communicated taxes as a burden, as the benefits provided by governments are not perceived to be in proportion to their payments. With sustainable development becoming central in many policy areas, new discourses including ‘fair’ or ‘sustainable’ tax have become omnipresent in public talk on taxes. This paper analyzes tax discourses in corporate annual reports within this changing context to examine the use of language in the construction of the meaning of tax. By analyzing tax reporting by a state-owned multinational company over two decades, we observe that the communication of taxes increased in both number and types of discourses. Importantly, this highlights the shift in tax discourses from one dominated by codified accounting discourse reinforcing the monolithic representation of tax as an unfair expense, to one where tax is given a multidimensional meaning within a broader discursive context, where tax is a meaningful corporate responsibility to society.

Computer-mediated webchat is fast replacing voice support in customer service. Whilst previous studies have explored how communication breaks down in customer service voice exchange in off-shored/outsourced multinational companies; studies into webchat exchange in the same industries are scarce. Given the high stakes of customer service interactions – for example customer satisfaction, return intention and loyalty to the company – there is an urgent need to understand how conversations unfold, in a linguistic sense, in successful and unsuccessful service. This study, using interactional linguistics, has used a close interpretative process to analyse instances of problematic exchange showing two key causes of communicative disruption. This first relates to disrupted turn adjacency where the sequence and flow of the exchange becomes confusing. The second relates to conceptual misunderstandings of terms in the exchange that may have multiple meanings. As workplaces invest millions of dollar in recruiting, training and appraising global webchat agents to serve their customers, the findings of this study can fruitfully inform webchat training and coaching that impact performance at work and provide high satisfaction to customers.

Sharing one’s past experience of being bullied is expected to be painful, but gay Taiwanese YouTubers’ self-disclosures about how they became victims of homophobic bullying are frequently accompanied by humor and shared laughter. Their interactions are also presented multimodally with other visual and audible semiotic resources. Adopting a multimodal social semiotic approach and a framing approach, this study analyzes three YouTube videos about homophobic bullying. Findings suggest that the gay Taiwanese YouTubers frequently shifted between the sociable frame and the audience-targeted frame when interacting with their interactants and audience. They also assumed different narrative roles, serving as the story-teller, the commentator, and the fictionist. How these gay influencers articulate their opinions on behalf of the LGBTQ community also helps them to assert themselves as eloquent, knowledgeable, and humorous sexual moderns.

The business and financial press plays an important role for capital markets, as it routinely reports on the financial results of large companies, thereby influencing how investors perceive the economic prospects of these companies. Despite the numerical and factualized nature of such news, financial journalists have considerable power in interpreting corporate results and evaluating them as positive or negative. We examine these journalistic evaluations as metadiscourse, focusing on the variety of evaluative language resources financial journalists draw on to convey positive or negative evaluations of companies and their financial results in their news stories. Our findings illustrate how financial journalists problematize the financial results of companies, distance themselves from corporate claims or endorse them, and downtone or reinforce evaluations by means of contrast. Our analysis suggests that financial journalists convey evaluations in a manner seemingly conformant with the genre ideals of neutrality and objectivity, despite exercising considerable power over the evaluation of financial news.

Drawing on the proximization theory, this study investigated the characteristics and expected effects of proximization strategies in the discourse of telecommunication fraud through the textual analysis of samples selected among 2738 fraudulent texts. The results demonstrated a dominant use of spatial proximization strategy, which imitated the main features of institutional discourse to establish a community of interest with the recipients. Moreover, the use of various verb phrases made the recipients feel the imminence of threats or benefits. Additionally, the urgency and importance of the event created by the temporal proximization strategy also served to establish a cooperative relationship between the fraudsters and the recipients. The axiological proximization strategy served as a complementary tool to facilitate the realization of the above two strategies. This study could help with the identification of fraudulent content in texts and the creative production of the anti-fraud materials.
