pos: adj

form: gender critical
pos: adj
tags: alternative
Senses:
gloss: Critically examining the role of gender in a text, a person’s experiences, etc.
pos: adj
examples: […] in order to understand the nature of gender in society and the domination of men in most forms of social life, one needs to take a gender-critical perspective of both men and women and the interrelations between them (Evans, 1988); and, in order to bring about any enduring gender equity, men and women need, separately and collectively, to reach a gender-critical understanding and make the changes to their lives accordingly.
A decade or more later, it is instructive to consider the status of both feminist and gender-critical approaches to the study of religion. As I have argued elsewhere, despite the ubiquity of gendering as a cultural practice, its significance within religion systems, and its foundational role in shaping human possibility and opportunity, gender has not been widely adopted as an essential analytical category by scholars of religion.
Gender-critical exploration of biblical literature remains a relatively new enterprise. Building on and encompassing the work of nineteenth- and twentieth-century feminist scholarship and more recent queer studies, biblically focused gender studies seeks to advance the scholarly conversation by systematically exploring the ways in which gender is constructed in the diverse texts, cultures, and readers that constitute “the world of the Bible.”
gloss: Espousing, characteristic of, or relating to gender-critical feminism.
pos: adj
tags: neologism
examples: As a gender critical feminist and an attorney, I have been analyzing the legal and medical conflation of gender with sex for years.
I don’t believe that all, or even most, ‘gender-critical’ editorials genuinely set out to make our lives harder: more that their writers don’t realise the impact they can have in the structure outlined above.
This sort of mistreatment reflects the ideologies of trans-exclusionary radical feminism, popular amongst certain gender-critical lesbian groups.
Selina Todd, professor of modern history at Oxford University, agrees. Recently one delegate cancelled their place at a humanities conference she was due to speak at when they saw her name on the agenda. “It was because the person was concerned that ‘transphobic’ views would be expressed. I assume that this referred to my gender-critical stance.”
Maya Forstater, a former researcher and writer for a thinktank, is likely to appeal against a ruling that her gender-critical feminist beliefs could not be protected, Chilton suggested.

In November 1959, a paper entitled "The Swindon-built Diesel-Hydraulic Locomotive" was presented to the Institute of Locomotive Engineers by Mr. G. E. Scholes and it contained some very interesting figures. One set was a comparison between the mileages achieved during a period of the first five months in 1959 by "King" and "Castle" 4-6-0s and "Britannia" 4-6-2s and those of D800 to D805, the first of the Swindon-built 2,000 h.p. diesel-hydraulic locomotives of the "Warship" class, then brand new and subject to the teething troubles of all such complicated units in the earliest stages of their use.
The elimination of vacuum-braked wagons would be slowed down, and the Western Region's flirtation with diesel-hydraulic locomotives was questioned.

pos: noun

examples: It is difficult to compare the human counterpart of what Jeffcott describes as another 'well known' problem in horses, namely, "cold-back".
Such maladies as osteoarthritis of various joints (spavin in the hocks, ringbone in the pasterns, osselets in the fetlocks, navicular disease in the heels of the forefeet) are very common, as is chronic lower back soreness (coldback) in the lumbar, sacral, and thoracic regions.
If horses exhibit a cold-back, it may well signify an underlying problem, but some horses that have only a cold-back and no other signs or performance deficit can be managed by lunging before riding or gradually tightening the girth.
One of the most debated subjects in the whole of equestrianism is whether or not horses have bad backs. For some horsemen, a horse with a 'cold-back' is merely demonstrating eccentric behaviour; for others, every unexpected response is indicative of a back problem.
gloss: A horse with cold-back.

pos: noun
examples: Indeed, those old insurgents, of 1868, are gradually being canonized with crimson death-names, because they neither knew dishonor, no, nor suffered it.
The priest at that time would give a death-name for the deceased, eventually to be inscribed on a stone monument.
Most death-names are not actually names but titles, given to persons on the death of a close relative.
Using death-names instead of usual names is their way to protect the feelings of the bereft (using the name of the dead might arouse sad feelings).
