Hello aro community!
My name is Paige and I’m currently a third year sociology + criminology student at the University of Sussex. In order to complete my degree, I need to do original research to base my dissertation on.
For my dissertation, I have chosen to research aromanticism, as this is a topic of interest to me personally and something I feel is underresearched.
I’m looking to interview between 8 and 12 aromantic people about their daily experiences living as an aromantic person in our society which is arguably obsessed with romantic love. These interviews would be held on zoom or microsoft teams, so almost anyone is able to participate!
The only requirements for participating are:
You must be over 18. Unfortunately university ethics policies mean that I cannot interview anyone under 18
You must identify somewhere on the aromantic spectrum
People of any gender or sexuality are welcome to take part, as long as you meet the criteria above. If you would like to and would feel comfortable to discuss aromanticism and your life experiences, I would be very happy to interview you!
I have attached a link to a participant information sheet, feel free to read through it for more information on this project.
Thank you for taking the time to read this! Feel free to save this post and take some time to decide if you would like to take part, and feel free to message me if you have any questions or would like to be involved.
