I am posting this with the Host's permission. I am trying to find male Wiccans to be interviewed via email for my Master’s thesis.

I am a student in University of Oulu in Finland, Europe. My research is about Wiccan men and their experiences within Wicca. I am interested in men’s faith, what Wicca offers for men and how men are practicing Wicca.

I would like those willing to participate (and in this way help to gather information about male practitioners of Wicca) to contact via private message. I will then send you some background questions and the interview questions. You can answer the questions whenever suits you best (however, latest 30th of June 2011) and then send your answers back to me as a private message.
You cannot be recognized from my research. I don’t need to know your real name – you can choose a pseudonym for yourself. All the answers will be printed out and the original messages will be deleted after that. All the printouts will be deleted after the thesis is ready.

I appreciate all contacts. You can help to find out what kind of religion Wicca is for men.
If you have any further questions concerning my research, please feel free to contact me any time.

Sincerely,
Paivi Hirvonen
