Controversies
In 2018 the journal was the target of a scholarly publishing sting, in which a hoax paper titled "Human Reactions to Rape Culture and Queer Performativity in Urban Dog Parks in Portland, Oregon" was reviewed enthusiastically, accepted, and received an award. The paper proposed that men should be "trained like we do dogs to prevent rape culture".[4][5][6][7] Furthermore, the paper was recognized as exemplary scholarship in feminist geography by the journal on May 7, 2018, and was set to be honored as such as a part of their 25th anniversary celebration until doubts about its authorship surfaced.[4] The article was retracted after the hoax was exposed.
