ANTH 4210 - Culture and Human Sexuality

Institution:

University of North Texas

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

4210. Culture and Human Sexuality. 3 hours. Will examine sexualities cross-culturally in their specific historical, social, religious and political contexts to explore how that seemingly most natural aspect of humanity -sex- is structured and experienced very differently across the globe. A primary focus is how sex and sexuality are discursively constructed as a matter of utmost privacy, yet are paradoxically a matter of deep public concern. Will examine the intimate connection between sex and the nation by exploring topics such as family planning policies, anti-sodomy laws, and laws against interracial marriages.
