SOC 335A - Human Sexuality

Institution:

Antioch University-System Administration

Subject:

Description:

This course explores the complex issues of sexuality, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, and "normal" and "abnormal" sexual behavior/ practices through the lens of social constructionism. In so doing, the course investigates the philosophical underpinnings of "natural" sexuality while challenging the assumptions and beliefs upon which it is built. The course attempts to deconstruct the notion of an innate, transhistorical, and transcultural sexual body through the examination of the scientific, psychological, moral, cultural, and political constructs that have shaped this discourse.
