IJIR publishes special/guest-edited issues and topical collections. The peer review process for articles included in topical collections/special issues is the same as the peer review process of the journal in general. Additionally, if the Guest Editors author an article in their topical collection/special issue, they will not handle the peer review process.
IJIR welcomes submissions to its Special issue on “Rare Sexual Disorders” guest edited by Dr. Murat Gül.

We are proud to introduce this collection on child genital alteration practices performed on young people in countries and cultures around the world and transcending conventional boundaries of sex and gender. Guest edited by B.D. Earp, J. Abdulcadir & L-M. Liao
1-MONTH FREE ACCESS from APRIL 27!
This is the second part of a two-part special issue on child genital cutting. This second part puts the spotlight on genital modifications affecting those born, not with intersex traits, but with “endosex” traits. And yet, as the articles in this collection make clear, even apparent biological normativity do entail cultural acceptability.
Each month or so we will be featuring one of our editorial team, allowing them an opportunity to impart some of their wisdom and knowledge with you, our authors and readers, and you the opportunity to get to know them a little better.
Currently featuring Associate Editor, Dr Emmanuel Weyne

Since late 2019, a novel virus named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has emerged as a new public health crisis. Although scientists have primarily focused on keeping patients alive by preventing the deadly symptoms of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), studies have shown that the virus can also impair quality of life by deteriorating sexual and reproductive systems. In this collection, we aim to provide insights related to the novel coronavirus's neglected effects on human sexuality. We hope that scientists will focus more on "COVID-19 and Sexuality" in the future and identify optimal management strategies for individuals who suffer from sexual side effects of coronavirus.
