LEAD 196:
Sexual Citizenship (WELLNESS 196)
Did you know that you have the right to sexual self-determination? In other words, each person is a sexual citizen with the right to choose their own sexual experience, including not engaging sexually, no matter their gender, race, color, class, age, ability, physical appearance, sexual orientation, past experiences, or other status. Developing our individual sexual citizenship has the potential to directly impact the prevalence of sexual violence on our campus. In this course, students will develop awareness of their own sexual citizenship by reading Jennifer Hirsch and Shamus Khan's (2020) Sexual Citizens: A Landmark Study of Sex, Power, and Assault on Campus. Critical reflections, collective discussions, and experiential activities will support students to attune to themselves and others. Students will design and implement their own campus community-based projects to advance a culture of sexual citizenship grounded in care, respect, and consent.
