| Tiivistelmä: | This article investigates the emerging role of women who work as 'bouncers' or doorstaff, in the night-time economy and examines how the cultural capital of the female bouncer is connected to the methods utilized to control licensed premises. This article draws on interview data with one particular category of female door staff; women who share similar histories of exposure to violence and violent cultures, and it examines how their experiential knowledge of violence equips them with resources to 'work the doors'. Articles attention focuses on this group of women, who are referred to as 'The connected' and examines how they are doing gender when they negotiate violence on the door. |
