Description | Employs an intersectional philosophical approach to the study of
human sexuality. Specific topics include ethical, epistemological
(knowledge), and political questions related to sexual
orientation, lust, casual sex, adultery, love, sexual orientation
and practice, different types of relationships, and the
intersectionality of sexual identity and orientation with other
identities such as race, gender, and disability status. As we
consider these questions, we will challenge assumptions regarding
human sexuality, consider the importance of sexuality and
friendship to the good life, and discuss what, if any, is the
appropriate role of the state in human sexual behavior. Keywords:Ethics, Sex, Sexuality, Sexual Orientation, Relationships |
