Tune in to New Legacy Radio today, and learn about the establishment of Single Studies as a global discipline, with today's guest, Dr. Craig Wynne. Dr. Wynne is the co-editor of the recently released, Singular Selves: An Introduction to Singles Studies. He also wrote the book How to be a Happy Bachelor and has published a number of articles on singlehood. As often discussed on this show, we recognize the ways pronatalism impacts individual reproductive and relationship experiences, amidst status quo thinking and assumptions, and biases experienced by those without children, and those who are unmarried, uncoupled, in diverse relationship structures, and those who are single. Singlism, a term coined by Dr. Bella DePaulo, defines the stigmatizing and negative stereotyping of and discrimination against adults, specifically because they are single. Dr. Wynne will speak to this, and a range of terminology reflecting individual and collective experiences of singlehood. He will also address the why of an intersectional, interdisciplinary global approach to Single Studies, as we consider the questions: How do we best examine the ways systemic, social, and media perspectives have influenced the understanding of singlehood? How can we change the impact of these influences on those who are single, and center the lived experiences of singlehood for greater social change? Join us for this and much more in today's show!
