Our choice of terminology was based on a combination of community feedback and practical considerations. After discussions with our readers and reviewing search trends, it was clear that “sensitivity reader” is the term most authors are familiar with and frequently search for. This term not only encompasses the essence of the service but also aids in ensuring our services are easily found by those who need them.

It’s worth noting that while “cultural consultant” has its merits, the term “sensitivity reader” more directly points to the nuanced and empathetic review these professionals offer. Our primary aim is to assist authors effectively while maintaining clarity and accessibility in our offerings.
