Gender Studies 369 - Making Sexualities

Institution:

St Lawrence University

Subject:

Description:

Sexuality culturally operates as a central trope by which we come to "know" ourselves as sexed people (that is female or male) andhow we come to understand our desire. In this course we unpack sexuality from a culturally and gendered perspective-we discuss how we have come to know sexuality culturally, materially and in our everyday lives. In doing so, we explore topics such as the invention of modern notions of sexualities, queer identity, love, pornography and sex work through reading, writing, artistic expression and research. This course is reading- and writing-intensive.
