Annotated Bibliography
In your Proposal, you have already included your preliminary bibliography of five academic peer-reviewed sources. You can continue working on the same sources or modify your bibliography, if you find alternative sources are more relevant or interesting.�
What is important is that you have five academic sources (journal articles or book chapters) that are directly related to your topic and help to answer your main research question.�
Annotated bibliography includes two parts:
Your annotation will be about 200 words. It must include a brief summary of the article or book chapter with clearly identified theoretical approach, main argument and conclusions (approx. 50 words). It must also include a detailed description (about 150 words) of the relevance of this particular source to the key research questions and the main argument of you Final Paper roposal / Outline. This is the most important component of the assignment that demonstrates that you have a strong knowledge of the source and understand how it can be used in the analysis of a particular topic in sexuality studies.

JOURNAL ARTICLE: APA
Maak, T. (2007). Responsible leadership, stakeholder engagement, and the emergence of social capital. Journal of Business Ethics, 74, 329-343. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10551-007-9510-5
This article focuses on the role of social capital in responsible leadership. It looks at both the social networks that a leader builds within an organization, and the links that a leader creates with external stakeholders. Maak’s main aim with this article seems to be to persuade people of the importance of continued research into the abilities that a leader requires and how they can be acquired. The focus on the world of multinational business means that for readers outside this world many of the conclusions seem rather obvious (be part of the solution not part of the problem). In spite of this, the article provides useful background information on analysis of a public servant.

Thoughts about citing and citational practices
I believe that bibliographies and endnotes and references and sources are alternative stories that can, in the most generous sense, centralize the practice of sharing ideas about liberation and resistance and writing against racial and sexual violence. �Katherine McKittrick, "Footnotes (Books and Papers Scattered about the Floor)", Dear Science and Other Stories, 2021
This is a challenge for all of us: Reflect on the way you approach referencing the work of others in your own writing, presenting and thinking. Whose work do you build on to make arguments ... Who are you citing, and why do you cite them (and not others)?�Eve Tuck, K. Wayne Yang, Rubén Gaztambide-Fernández,"Citation Practices" Critical Ethnic Studies, April 2015

MY TOPIC

posts I found about bisexuality and non-monogamy
"One persistent stereotype—and an important one, since it may lead non-bisexuals to avoid relationships with bisexuals—is that bisexuals are...traitors, promiscuous... incapable of monogamy or commitment to one person."
�Are Bisexuals Really Less Monogamous Than Everyone Else? Psychology Today blog
"The researchers found that bisexual women, compared to lesbians and heterosexual women, were evaluated as more confused, promiscuous, non-monogamous…. [The researchers] hope that shedding light on this prejudice can help reduce it and the heavy toll it takes on bisexual individuals." ��“Many heterosexuals view bisexual women as promiscuous and confused”. PsyPost
my emerging thesis statement
As evidenced in mainstream magazine columns and advice blogs, popular discourses purporting to debunk stereotypes around bisexuality often instead serve to reinforce persistent normative and colonial constructs around non-monogamy.

LGBTQ+ Source EBSCO database:
enter: monogamy – see that most articles are tagged with “monogamous relationships”
adjust: monogam* – get too many results
adjust: monogam* AND bisexual* - worth going through results, can limit by adding another concept:
for example: monogam* AND bisexual* AND stereotyp*
or: monogam* AND bisexual* AND (colonial* OR normative OR construct* OR discourse)
– if there are not enough hits, just remove one of the ANDs
THEN adjust to peer-reviewed and to 2016 onwards only for the most recent 10 years

This article is from a non-scholarly newsletter/magazine published by the American Association of Sex Educators & Therapists. The article is conversational rather than academic and does not report any scholary findings nor use any scholarly frameworks. It is closer to a news/editorial article. There are no references.
This IS an academic/scholarly/
peer-reviewed article. Important clues: Research article published in Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood, a peer-reviewed journal according to the Sage journals website. The article has distinct sections such as abstract, theoretical approach, research context, and it reports on the authors’ analysis of data from a qualitative study.
