This course is designed to provide a cross-cultural, inter-disciplinary approach to the study of human sexuality. The main objective, however, is to expand your understanding of human sexualities through an empirically grounded social science perspective. Topics to be addressed include: the components of sexual expression, sexual beliefs and attitudes, theories and methodologies in sexuality research, cross-gender patterns, sexual orientations/behaviours, sexual coercion, sex work, and sexuality education.
