Excerpt from the first lesson:
Sexuality from a Sociological Perspective
Objective
After this lecture, students should have a basic knowledge of the different
approaches that have been used to understand human sexuality. They should
also be familiar with some of the more prominent theorists in the fields,
recognizing both their contributions and the weaknesses of their approaches.
Finally, students should begin to appreciate the ways society itself molds not
only our attitudes about sexuality, but scholarly theories about sexuality;
theorists are also socialized into the real world and are influenced by it.
