Westminster College (Salt Lake City)

Subject:

Gender Studies

Description:

Can we be human without loving and being loved? Does our gender affect our needs in loving relationships? What are the ethical issues of desire? This course will examine issues of love, sex, sexuality and identity. To do this, we will draw on several different strains of western Philosophy as well as contemporary media in the form of films and images. The goal of this course is to encourage you not only to grapple with some great philosophical texts but also to engage in personal reflection and enriching class discussion over some key and often volatile issues in philosophy and culture.
