Summary:	I would like to thank Theresa Heyd, Patty Davies, Brian W. King, Jamie Findlay, Sandra Beyermann, Jannis Androutsopoulos, and Rowena Viney for their responses to my earlier query requesting information about gender and sexuality and their relation to language, especially on the internet. The information I received helped me find several good resources I had missed about the topic, with respondents directing me towards work by Deborah Cameron, Don Kulick, Celia Kitzinger, Victoria Land, Marisol del-Teso Craviotto, Bridge Markland, and Susan Herring. The work by Herring, Cameron, and Kulick have been especially useful to my research. Here is a list of a few of the full references I have found: Cameron, D. and D. Kulick (eds.) (2006) The Language and Sexuality Reader. London: Routledge. Cameron, D. and D. Kulick (2005) "Identity Crisis?" Language and Communication 25: 107-25. Cameron, D. and D. Kulick (2003) Language and Sexuality. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. Kulick, D. (2000) "Gay and Lesbian Language." Annual Review of Anthropology 29: 243-285. I was also directed to one link (http://www.slis.indiana.edu/faculty/herring/pubs.html), which is extensive and very handy.
