Inspired by the generative ‘Sexual Reputations Symposium’ hosted by Gary Alan Fine at Northwestern University (November, 2013), this special issue brings together interdisciplinary articles to present data, theories, arguments, and analyses of sexual reputations in various contexts. The symposium was sponsored by the Sexualities Project at Northwestern, with the support of the project’s organizers, Steven Epstein and Hector Carrillo, along with the Department of Sociology, the Gender and Sexuality Studies Program, and the Kaplan Institute for the Humanities. Symposium papers addressed topics as diverse as Emily Dickinson’s and Andrea Dworkin’s sexual reputations, the reputations of ‘sexual’ places and spaces, and the interactionally created reputations of gay white and Chicano men assessing one another’s sexualities. The articles included in here address major, key aspects of this new concept. The four articles chosen for this special issue of Sexualities each reveal a distinctive approach to the examination of sexual reputations.
