• The main objective of this paper is to present a critical accounting of the corpus of tourism gender research in order to provoke debate about its status and about the health of tourism research in general, concentrating on whether this research area has finally ignited in 2012. This objective is based on the conclusions of a previous article published related to gender and tourism (Figueroa-Domecq et al. 2015) and which concluded that in 2012 this research area was at a tipping point, that was either going to ignite or stagnate.
